come see me this weekend!


I love this time of year.

Flowers.

Green grass.

Breezes.

FLEA MARKETS!!!!!

That's right, girls! This weekend marks my official start to Flea Market Season! I will be at the Kane County Flea Market in St. Charles, IL this Saturday and Sunday!


Just look for me in the sea of white painted furniture. I will be the tall thing with dark hair sticking up over a pile of dresser...vanity tables...desks...coffee tables...cabinets...mirrors...chalkboards...you get the idea.


My booth location is the same it has been for the last few years, so most of you will know where to find me. On the main drag, right across from the Office/Bathroom area. I am in the Arena Building, right on the isle.



I will be trying to get photos of everything as I drag it out of storage to load the truck - so look for a preview on Friday. Oh, and a little announcement from me is coming on Friday, too! So do check back!

Hope to see you this weekend at the flea!

  28. Hi there, I just stumbled across your blog courtesy of a new follower on mine, and I must say I am so pleased I did! I am a SAHM trying to run a little furniture painting business out of my garage. I started last September and it is going well, I'd love to have more time to put into it but that will come once both my kids are at school, and I don't want to rush that! I love the pink striped chest of drawers - just gorgeous! I'll join here as a follower and also pop over to your new blog...I did that too, change the name of my business and therefore my blog a few months ago, and so glad i did...I am small time still but there is loads of potential when i have the time to give the business, and I feel like I have a real 'brand' now that I can grow...it is so exciting!

    Hope your flea market sale went well.
    xx Karen

  35. If you're moving to the marketplace for finding the leading enterprise that gives Invisible Grille to their clients. If you're one in every one of them, then you must reach DeGrille. If you wish to grasp its Invisible Grille Singapore Price, then it’s affordable. The invisible grille is that the perfect addition in residential also as commercial space.
