A WHOLE LOTTA JUNKIN' BLISS

Ten days. One Junker Mom. One Sweet Girl. Many great new friends. Acres of fabulous JUNK, antiques, and other beautiful, whimsical needful things. Here’s the pics from our trip to the 2011 Spring Warrenton Antique Show and Marburger Farm Antique Show in Round Top, TX.

Peace, love, and happy JUNKIN' memories, y'all!

which was sold in the first four hours of the Marburger Farm Antique Show!!)

SPRINGTIME SOULFULNESS AT 2ND SATURDAYZ VINTAGE MARKET

 Hey, y’all!! We’re back from a fun-filled ten days in Texas and packing up for this weekend’s one and only, incredible 2nd Saturdayz Vintage Market at Magnuson Park, Hanger #30, 7400 Sand Point Way NE in Seattle. Here’s a sneak peek of the goodies The Garden Cat is bringing – lots of great vintage garden and floral stuff!! We’ve even created glittery Easter eggs topped with a dab of moss and vintage flowers. Deb and Linda have filled the old hanger for the April 2nd Saturdayz to the hilt with some of the best vintage and repurposing vendors and crafters around. It will be an inspiring show full of whimsy, one-of-a- kind items, and enough springiness to encourage even our stubborn northwest winter weather to warm up and let the sun shine down.

By the way, my next blog post will include all the news and pics from our roadtrip to Warrenton, Round Top, and Marburger Farm Antique Shows. Safe to say, junkin’ happiness abounds there!!

See ya at 2nd Saturdayz!!

Peace, love, and all the good stuff, y’all!
