Bringing in Fall

I love fall! Especially when Edwards Apple Orchard in Poplar Grove opens. https://www.facebook.com/Edwards-Apple-Orchard-296241517156065/


It's the perfect way to bring in fall.


Fall is also the perfect time to rearrange and declutter.  I moved the cabinet that I brought back from New Jersey into MY room and filled it with gardening books (after I decluttered them) and my Statue of Liberty collection.  I found another one this weekend at the Cedarburg WI flea market.  They are all so different.


Here'a a close up of the Lady Liberty's.


I treasure hunted at a 90 year accumulation estate sale on Friday.  I packed my car!


I love those kinds of sales.  Packed and slightly dirty where you have to dig.  The best finds are always in places like that.

Sunday was perfect weather for the Cedarburg WI flea market.  There were lots of treasures there also.



Here's a sampling of my outdoor finds this weekend.


And my indoor decor finds.


I spent many hours yesterday at the Carriage House getting my space ready for our 13th Anniversary celebration (my 3 years with them) and the Vintage Finds Off Route 14 Shop Hop. https://www.facebook.com/VintageFindsOffRoute14/


I still have the outside to work on, but the inside is pretty much done.


I always try to fit in as much as possible.  It's jammed packed in there right now!


It's always so exciting working during the sale.  It's great to see the reactions of our customers when they find that perfect item.


Happy treasure hunting!
