Camas Antique Faire

Wow! What an awesome day it was at the Camas Antique Faire!! 

Thanks to Debbie & Laurie of Worthy Goods for all your hard work in organizing

 such a great day!

The weather...the crowds...the vendors...were all done to perfection!

Here are a few pics of my booth before the crowds arrived and stripped me clean!

It was so nice to leave with less of a load!

Looking forward to doing it again next year!!

Obsession

Does anyone know when a collection becomes an obsession? I'm afraid I'm getting close to that fine line! I can't seem to control myself when it comes to garden carts!! I found another one yesterday that has been under a deck for the last 50 years, and who knows how long was in use before that! It's a turn of the century wooden wheelbarrow that is in perfect condition! I've counted 15 goat carts, wheelbarrows, hand carts, etc...in my garden! Oh my...I do sell one occasionally, but they are so precious it's hard to let them go! They are the perfect compliment to a basket of fleurs! Does anyone else have this disease!

Heaven on Earth

I found a little piece of Heaven on Earth in Mt. Angel today! As we were zipping by this cute little town on our way to the Molly Mo's Antique Sale in Sublimity, this gorgeous field of larkspur stopped us in our tracks!

Wow...talk about Blissful!! 

Treasure Hunting

What a fun day of Treasure Hunting I had today! I've decided to do the Camas Antique Faire on August 27th, and am finding a mother lode of fun stuff for it! I've posted a few sneek peeks of my garage setup to see what I can fit in my space...you won't want to miss this awesome sale! I've also included pics of some recent treasures I've found for the garden...it's so hard to bring them to the shop once I've placed them in my garden!

 I found a pair of these adorable puppy dogs holding a basket of fleurs!

 Take a look at this unbelievable copper weathervane! 

Another incredible find that's going to be hard to give up!!

 Isn't this the cutest French Poodle you've ever seen?

 Sorry...Bella isn't for sale...she's just a ham for getting her picture taken!

This is the cutest donkey and cart I've ever seen! The person I bought it from says it's been sitting in the backyard of a house he bought for over 50 years! What a great vintage patina on this little guy!

 How do I begin to put a price on him?

Well, that's it for now...Soon I'll start teasing you with some incredible things I'm saving for the 

Monticello Fall Sale starting Sept. 9th.!

Lake Oswego Antique Fair

WOW! What a great sale!! It's been several years since I've done a sale like this, and aside from the fact that it takes alot of work, it was totally worth it!! Kudos to Laura and Jay at Sixpence Antiques for organizing this special sale that is sure to be an annual event!! Here are some pics of my booth and some of the other dealers...

You won't want to miss it next year!!

Fleurs Friday

I finally got my big new corner space at Stars! I've been busy loading it with some really great treasures!!
It's a good thing I took pictures, because several of the items sold in a blink of the eye!!
I thought it would be fun to highlight my spaces each Friday...

Also in the works are two special events coming up...

Don't miss the Lake Oswego Antique Fair August 14th from 9-3!!

And this year I will be a part of the Monticello Fall Sale

going on from Sept.9th to October 2nd!!

                                                   Check out some of the sneek peeks...

And I leave you with this precious quote...''The grass is always greener on the other side"...
