Tune in as Jen Farley and Sarah Staley share the ins and outs of running antique mall booths, from sourcing and styling to connecting with customers.

She’s joined by Jen Farley of Persnickety by Jen Farley and Sarah Staley of Velvet Peach Vintage—both vendors at The Hill Antique Market, but with distinctly different styles: Jen’s eclectic mix of antique and contemporary, and Sarah’s focus on mid-century modern and Y2K finds.
