Rain along with Lots of Sun and Fun! Nashville Flea March 2010


This months Nashville Fair Grounds flea market had it all.  Along with some fabulous buys for my antique store and ok...for myself (home)  There's just too much temptation for buying at this show.   Here is one of my buys, a stunning antique amethyst pin.  The back pin is broken off so I might make myself a necklace.

Selling was wonderful....I came home with just about a empty trailer, keep in mind I go up with two trailers and two truck loads for sale. Empty trailers equals.... Love hearing how my customers love my stuff also! 

Here is a wonderful gal that showed up in my booth and this time I grabbed my camera as I loved the way she was dressed.  Check out that hot pink Vintage Coat and those boots!!  Made me smile!

She is starting up a new blog soon!   Sure to be fantastic!

I met so many wonderful people in person that said they had found my blog! Me...little old me with no gift of writing and just starting up blogging in December. Really made my day at the show! I had what I call Sally Fields moments ..."they liked me...they really liked me" and someone is reading. Oh my! Hugh thank you!

I was blessed to have met in person Gina...she has a Oh so Fun shop & blog theshabbychiccottage.net
as she is set up right across from me over in Shed 4.

What a wonderful talented lady that hand-makes all of her items. After arriving home I was so bummed to realize that I forgot to buy some of her antique French writing wood clothes pins.

Why? Because they would of been awesome to hang my antique lace & barkcloth items for display. Or the clothes pins with sparkles shown below instead as I could use some sparkle right about now waking up this morning.

I know she has a etsy site- so maybe I will just order ...hope this link works... http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheShabbyChicCottage I am just too new to the blog world to know for sure how to do a link correct.

Cheers,

  2. hi again , just read Shiloh's story. I like you even more now..How unbeliveable some people are..You have a kind, sweet heart. I have heard of DNA tests for dogs. My friend had it done. Don't know the price of the test. You send in a sample (siliva?) to their lab and they send back what breed(s) you dog is..cool huh?
    Also, I am having mega problems on my blog..I don't know how to do links..(new computer user)..how do you get pictures and links to the
    story on the side like that?? I'm just trying to add a second blog, a boutique to sell jewelry etc. and just can't do the link..any suggestions?? thank you, Cynthia

  4. Hi Cindykay, sounds like you had a fantastic show, with all the empty trailers and all! The photo of the gal in the rainboots is just too cute! My friend Kenda doesn't have a site, but she said she'd be happy to do an order. I think they are around $21 + shipping, (not completely sure, but in that range.) The one I'm showing is 4 and 3/4 diameter and 6 inches high. Let me know if you're interested and I'll get the two of you together. I'll be putting you on my blog roll also, thank you!
    hugs,
    Debra

  15. You know it's funny just having spent 10 days at the big Texas antique shows and now I can't wait to go to a flea market! Even though still tired, I guess even this couldn't keep me away, already planning where we'll go this weekend. Hope you have a great week, Theresa
