Junk Jubilee Spring 2013

 
This is one of the songs I had playing during the show.
 Hit play and enjoy...
 
 
 
I am completely speechless...the show was...amazing...out of this world! I had so much fun setting up, rearranging everyday, meeting a lot of the other wonderful vendors, interacting with customers, etc.  I learned so much and am very excited for the next Junk Jubilee show in November!
 
I am so thankful for everyone that helped me make this show possible. Thank You Mom, Dad, Ryan, Barb H, Barb C, Jennifer, Chad Amy, Sharon and an extra special Thank You to Miccia Humphrey for inviting me to be a part of this wonderful show!  
 
I took photos all three days so you'll see the same things displayed in different ways.
 




 #1 seller, little glass creamers.
 
 Everyone admired these concrete geese. A lovely couple gave them a new home.
 
 Brass cow tags on chains. Another big seller.
 
 Do you know Sue Whitney of Junk Market Style
She bought this bird bath top from me!!! How cool is that!!!
 


 My favorite item, a 100 ft tape measure.
It was the second thing to sell.
 
 Loved these, tin cups, ironstone saucers, moss and twine.  
 








 Business card I had made just for the show...a black sheep!
 




 
My second favorite item. An as found amber glass jug wrapped in wire.

Upcoming Event!

 
 
 
In my last post I said that I had an upcoming event to share with you. Well...the event is, I'm going to be a vendor in my very first show. I'll be selling at the Junk Jubilee show in Des Moines on April 26th-28th.  I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to be a part of this great show! But, with this being my first show, I'm also freaking out a little. To calm myself I'll have to keep in mind this quote... 
 
 
GO CONFIDENTLY
IN THE DIRECTION
OF YOUR DREAMS.
LIVE THE LIFE YOU
HAVE IMAGINED.
                                -HENRY DAVID THOREAU
 
 
 All of these photos from Lyla & Blue are going to be used as inspiration for the show...
 
 
















 
If you can share any knowledge on doing a show, I'd really appreciate it.
Have a great weekend!

Cleaning Out The Closet

 
New French soap label post cards. 40-50 available.
 
 
 
While doing some organizing, I gathered some items that I forgot I had, no longer wanted or decided to part with. I'll admit, I'm a little embarrassed about this post. I only like to show my best work. But it's all part of the journey...getting rid of the old to bring in the new. And I do have some wonderful new merchandise, but I'm hoarding it for an upcoming event that I will share with you very soon. So to prepare for this event, I have to sell what I can and I've marked some items down to get them out the door. I didn't get pictures of all the new stuff and I'm sure I have more items on sale than are pictured. So stop in soon, get creative and find a new treasure!
