Yaaaaay!!!! Spring has totally sprung here in Georgia and
this past Saturday was absolutely GORGEOUS!!!
It was breezy, low 70's in temps and just perfect.
We decided to get up early (yes, don't faint, I really did it!)
What's so funny about this market is that it's held in buildings that used to be
stores we loved when we were growing up...Richway and Treasure Island!
Yes, those names sound so cheesy but my husband and I grew up near
both of these stores, we went shopping there as kids
and now these old buildings house this amazing market!!!
Oh well, enough about all that...just look at the goodness I saw ~
And I know this is quite pitiful but all I spent was...wait for it...
$18.00.
Yes, I know. There were so many treasures to be had!!!
But I have so much stash here already and just
can't justify buying more until I create more!
What DID I buy?
The most amazing speckled canvas fabric....
THIRTEEN yards of it too!
I love creating with this stuff and it's so much a yard at Hob Lob but I
found it for much less...
One sweet piece of stained linen with gorgeous lace and
a beautiful blank diary/journal from 1930.
The most encouraging thing of all from this field trip???
There was SO much inventory at this market and
TONS and TONS of customers buying!!!!
What does this tell me???
Folks are sick of the economy...and sick of everything else ~
but are ready to buy beautiful,
wonderful, old, amazing, gorgeous stuff!!!!
It really was such a great trip...
I hope you enjoy my pics!!
Wishing you a wonderful Monday my dear friends ~
hugs and love,
Dawn
