The Odd Bin

07/22/2023

Hello! I’m selling the inventory from my vintage dish rental business, The Odd Bin.

If you’re interested in offering this service or maybe you want to buy the dishes for your own event, send me a message.

I’ve recounted and I have 500 dinner plates, plus almost 500 salad/dessert plates, utensils for 260 place settings, and glassware for 260.

I also have salt and pepper shaker sets (50), punch bowls (11) and cups, silver trays (20), chandeliers (3), juice glasses (40), and snack plates (50) to be sold separately.

Quite an assortment! I want to sell the plates/silverware/glasses as a lot. The others can be sold individually as sets.

Give me a call or send a message if you’re interested in pricing.

It’s time to move these items along to be used again!

Hello! I’m selling the inventory of The Odd Bin!

I’m selling as one lot all the dinner, salad, and dessert plates plus the mason jars, drinking glasses, silverware, and silver plated silverware. It’s all mix and match.

I’ve got full service for at least 250, plus many extra plates so you can pull the style you or your client wants.

If you’re interested in purchasing the whole lot for your own wedding or you want to start your own rental business, please contact me for pricing and to set up a time for viewing this week at 217-690-5766 or message me on FB.

Serious inquiries only please.

Guys, I’m moving!

And since I have so much stuff, I’m having an estate sale this weekend.

Follow the Joanna’s Estate and Barn Sale page for more info and loads of pictures of what will be for sale starting promptly at 9 am THIS Friday.

You all may mostly be interested in the vintage wedding gowns I have for sale. 😍

*I am also looking for a buyer of my dish rental items. Selling as one lot. Let me know if you’re interested in details.*

It's been awhile. : )

I thought I'd finally share pictures from a tasting done at Pear Tree Estate in Champaign where they used a few of my items.

Their styling was gorgeous as always and the food looked amazing.

In these photos are my plates, cutlery, plus the brass and glass candle holders.

In spite of my silence on Facebook, I am still offering rentals. Contact me for information.

Here's a look back at this lovely outdoor wedding! The ceremony was held outside while the reception took place in a tent on the property of the bride's parents. It was a beautiful location and a beautiful day! I provided the mix 'n match dinner plates, cutlery and mason jar glasses, as well as a number of other prop items.

Just dropped teacups and saucers off at The Austin Mansion. Was surprised to find a photographer there readying for a senior photo shoot. Tea cups and senior photos? This is new. I also saw my high school history teacher there. Bewildering morning. : ) Pics coming soon.

In the meantime here are the workable double doors. They're a great way to make an entrance at an outdoor ceremony.

Cloth napkins are a great way to add a little color and texture to tables. So many different ways to use them - in the glass, tied up with the silverware, under the salad plate, etc.

I've got sets of both colorful/patterned napkins and mix 'n match white/ivory napkins and I'm happy to pull out the colors you need to match your style.

If you're looking for a large stash of pieces with which to create tablescapes then look no further. I've got stacks of silverplated and aluminum trays - perfect for centerpiece bases and a large selection of cake stands which are perfect for creating height on a table.

For those of you considering having your event at The Austin Mansion, here's what it would look like with tables set with primarily white and ivory vintage dishes, mix 'n match clear glasses, napkins and silverware. Add a centerpiece and you're done.

I think this is doable. And I think I'll start with more posts. : ) I know there are a lot of newly engaged couples out there now - Congrats to you all!

To help you assemble the perfect look for your big day I'll slowly be posting pics of the collections I have. Even if you're not having a "vintage wedding" per se, silverplated trays, hurricane lamps, brass or glass vases, wooden crates and more can help create the vibe you're going for. Happy New Year!

It's been a while since I've posted. I'm still alive! Congrats to all of you newly engaged brides. Tis the season! Contact me at [email protected] for bookings and quotes for your 2017 weddings.

Be sure to stop by Fresh Digs TODAY and get your Hobnob Market tickets! Ticket sales will stop this coming Thursday IF they don't run out before then.
If you've been living under a rock the Hobnob Market is a vintage and handmade pop-up market taking place at the Effingham County Fairgrounds in Altamont NEXT weekend. Tickets for Friday and Saturday are $10 in advance and $15 at the door. If you like The Odd Bin then you'll LOVE the Hobnob Market. It is awesome.

Just one week from today is Market Day...Bring your shopping lists, bring your smiles, bring your TRUCK!

:
FYI - If you're local we heard today that Route 40 between Altamont & Effingham will be closed September 7 & 8 but it sounds like will be back open by Friday, September 9. Just keep your ears open to what the grapevine is saying when you're planning which route to take.
