Preparing for a Flea Market

I have had a really inspiring and productive couple of weeks over here. After I went to the Barnhouse Boys Flea Market 2 weeks later I ventured off with my friend Jane to the Clayson Farm Flea Marekt in Yakima. We had a great day! The best find of all though was a personal one. I've been hunting and hunting for some vintage day dresses for myself and Jane (with her awesome eye) found a boatload of them for me at an antique store and wouldn't you know it they all fit like they were made just for me! yeah!

Leslee at Clayson Farm invited me to be a vendor next year and I can hardly wait. I will put aside some awesome things just for that day! I also was invited to be a vendor at the Sandpoint Flea Market in Seattle in November. I am busy scrounging up some chairs to restyle for that event. I will also have my cotton boll wreaths, tea towels and burlap pillows there.

Pictured here are a set of chairs I just finished. I've sold the first pair (thank you Jan-Maire) and I'm finishing up the second pair. $95 for the pair. The bee and wreath give it that little something extra, don't you think?

Enjoy the day!

A Fabulous Day at the Barnhouse Boys Flea Market

My friend Traci and I headed down to the Barnhouse Boys Flea Market in Battleground, WA and boy did we have fun. Not only did we meet some super nice vendors and find some very charming treasures but we hit some other sales along the way down and back. Some fun things will be showing up in our booths very soon! Here are a few pics to highlight our day. Have a great week! Kiama

Crazy Cool Art Bust Forms (sold)

Just got these in to the booth. They make an amazing statement. $32 each.

French Table Runners and Vintage Milk Crates

Wow, it's been too long since my last post but the weather has been so nice it's been too hard to stay inside to blog. Those of you who live in the great Pacific Northwest know how few and far between these nice sunny days are around here! We savor the few we have!

My first ever sale was a great success. Thank you to all of you who stopped by. I think I will do another sale before Christmas so if you missed out this time don't worry.

I have some lovely French inspired table runners in ( only $9.95 each) and four amazing vintage milk crates (also $9.95 each). These make such handy display shelves and storage cubbies. They come complete with the metal dividers still intact.

I'm busy gathering up all my best vintage equestrian items (including a crazy cool gold bergere chair with zebra upholstery) for the window display next month. I'm really excited to get in there and make it a really special display. I will be sure to post the pictures and I am anxious for your feedback, so be honest! Until next time...Kiama
