It's April but it sure doesn't feel like it! It was 80 degrees for the first few weeks and now the cold weather has returned with snow flurries and sleet. Welcome to the Midwest!
The cold weather isn't stopping me though from having my yearly garage sale. I'm doing it on a Wednesday this year with an open invite to local friends and fellow vintage dealers. It's a fun way to socialize and clean out the house/storage at the same time.
Sales have been going on. Here's a sampling of what I have found.....
It's been an ironstone kind of finds recently...
and ironstone dishware.
I did find some vintage Christmas...
and these Santa mugs finds....my heart was racing....
I'm always preparing for the Christmas Open House at the Carriage House in November.
There has been some time to do some redecorating/reorganizing in my home. Recently I found this candelabra for the hallway at the top of my stairs. I was going for a French look to go along with my vintage dress form. It was a perfect fit!
Now that May is nearing, I'm preparing for the Spring Open House next week at the Carriage House. It's May 3-6. I'm bringing in some more garden related items and some more "lighter" furniture for a summer vibe.
I have updated my favorite Flea Market page on my blog so be sure to check it out for some flea market fun. Keep looking for those rummage, garage and estate sales. You never know what you'll find!
Happy treasure hunting!
