Connie and her husband opened this year. It is a fabulous stop with so many great finds. Not to mention that they are so much fun to be around. You will love this place!
Another fun stop was at Vintage Art and Findings at 229 Barrington Rd in Wauconda. They are open from Wed-Sat. There was a nice selection of vintage and repurposed items.
Austin and I visited Edwards Apple Orchard in Poplar Grove. That is my most favorite place to visit in the fall. I used to take the boys there a few times a week to play and just enjoy the scenery. It was nice to have Austin along even though he is too old to play in the kids area. We had a nice time sampling all of the treats in the barn and having apple cider and apple cider donuts.
My friend Cecilia and I have been setting up our garage sale for Friday and Saturday at her home which is located across the street from the library in Woodstock. We have sooooo much in her garage. My car didn't look that full when I packed it, but once it was out, I couldn't believe how much stuff I had! Even she joked about having room for her stuff. I'm getting there early with more in case any early shoppers arrive. I'm actually excited to be cleaning out.
Next week, (Thursday Sept 15-Sunday Sept 18) is the beginning of the 13th year for Carriage House to be in business. It's my 2nd year anniversary with them. So we are having our fall open house. It's always lots of fun! I will be redoing my space and bringing in new treasures. I'll be so exhausted once all of this physical work is over.
Remember, Mukwonago WI flea market is Sept 10-11, Pecatonica flea market is Sept 17-18 and Elkhorn is Sept 25. These are the last flea markets of the season for these shows.
Happy treasure hunting!
Both of these places look wonderful. Next time I am up that way I will check these out.
