So Much To Do!

These past few weeks have been filled with Holiday Markets. It is amazing to see the work that goes into hosting and preparing for these.

My friend Sue and I were at Nellie's Barn Sale Christmas at the Farm in Belvidere. It's always a fun event.


Then it was off to the Urban Farmgirl in Rockford. She had an amazing hot cocoa bar and sugar cookies! The location housed in an older home is so charming.


Just loved this truck!


We hosted our Holiday Open House at the Carriage House last weekend. It was fabulous! There were about 25 plus people waiting for us to open. They headed straight for the vintage Christmas! Who could blame them?


This Santa picture drew so many people in to shop. It's one of my favorite pictures. Here's a few more from my space....


There's still lots of Christmas.


Most of my little trucks that I put together with vintage Christmas items sold. It was exciting for me that so many people liked my creations!


Here's a wider view of my space all decorated with vintage Christmas items.


Here I am in the midst of all that goodness. I love wearing my vintage Christmas pins.


Here's my space this week with vintage Christmas items moved around. I have so many vintage plastic candy holders still available.  I was so lucky to have found so many.

This weekend is the Washington Street Market in Naperville. I'm hoping to keep the holiday excitement going and visit them. If you like going on home tours, check out this beautiful restored mansion for a Christmas house walk Dec 1 in Libertyville.

Happy treasure hunting!
