Having some summertime FUN.....


Good morning girls ....A few weeks ago my sweetie and I took to the road for some summertime fun...I found a "VINTAGE HOME SHOW" a few hours away  that I wanted to check out so off we went early on a Saturday morning (one of my favorite things to do) to see what kind of FABULOUS this show could be
Here we are driving down a very quiet road....early in the am when nobody's out driving...SO PEACEFUL
We arrived safe and sound...I jumped out of the car while my sweetie scouted a parking place it was a very small show but everyone that WAS there had their spots filled with repurposed treasures....Indeed....I was one happy little shopper
I always enjoy meeting the folks that have taken such time and trouble to create something beautiful for all of us  this was one of the first booths I saw ...the owner couldn't have been sweeter or more gracious to me....
They had tables set up for sitting and eating with fresh Hydrangeas on every tabletop...
Everyone had unique items to share like this very old wrought iron gate...I thought it looked brilliant leaning against the wall my mind was going a mile a minute thinking about the different things you could do with this...I don't have a pantry in our house I created one from a great cabinet we have...but if I did have one I pictured this gate as a door leading into the pantry....
I loved this linen basket for laundry or ironing like they had it displayed the color of the ironing board is wonderful too...

This booth was one of my favorites the owner's name was Susan she was so sweet to pose for me near the the picture I wanted...see it over her shoulder?....I also found 2 of these little lamps with the country french shades on them...later in another post I'll show you the home they all found here....
The whole day was so much fun....I was over the moon meeting all these folks and learning about their business's ...hearing their dreams...my sweetie was just as interested in all that was going on as I was...for a good percentage of the time he was off talking to someone while I was peeking about at all the treasures...we had a wonderful time...I hope you all have a wonderful day I have the day off today ...but there is always a long list of things needing my attention...so I should sign off...blessings and big hugs to you and thank you for stopping by....Karena
