Ruffles and Rust show!

It was a gorgeous sun drenched drive from the Eastside to Monroe...even though I got there late..had only an hour or so to shop and see friends, I made it and had so much fun!

I loved seeing my Come junk with Us friends and I was happy to finally meet Kath, my dear online friend of 2 years, of Lil' Bit Old Lil' Bit New. She's so sweet and brought me some very cute gifts..KATH...?. I brought her a couple too!

The show was fun , lot's of new vendors, and I will upload some pics when I get help removing my cute "finds" out of my tiny little car! Man... I miss the van!!

Now my camera is on the blink, but I bought a similar vintage white chippy cradle for my children's parties..it will be the little bed of flowers. Also bought a white bird chippy bird cage..and some other cute bird items.
I'm inspired now to serve cupcakes with birds!

Please join us for shopping with a twist on Friday September 17th, 2010 as we present "Cupcakes and Polkadots"

Do you remember the simple delights of childhood? How a cupcake could make you giggle and as far as you were concerned, polkadots belonged on everything. As I made the passage from child to adult, I found that some of the same things that gave me delight as a child, still brought a smile to my face. The little girl in me, always looking for an opportunity to relive the happiness of childhood. Then having daughters, the perfect excuse.Cupcakes remind me of those happy times – and because cupcake bakeries are popping up all over, it’s given us glorious permission to partake in this delightful pastime! After-all, who doesn’t love a cupcake? The once simple confection, now piled high with frostings and toppings, indulging the child in all of us.It’s the simple things like cupcakes and read more.......

French Flea Market and a pug named Paris

Cindy of Haley's Cottage in Kirkland Wa. put on a great event on Sat. I was a vendor, and we really had a fun group. Amazing talented women. But I really loved "Paris" the adorable pug right next to me. She chased a squirrel, talked to everyone that passed by, and even mumbled "I Love You" to her daddy! She was beyond..so cute!! Her owner is Mela from.. CoutureVintage.com coming soon online

Visit Cindy's blog for more pics! Here are a couple of my fav's.

Well a few days ago I took some time off and visited a few friends..old and new! First was Shirley at The Shed Antiques we had a lot of fun visiting and I bought a sign for my Garden Shed entry for my Children's Tea Parties..we are soon to be having.

The next stop was Kay at The Weathered Rose in Bothell and we spent some time visiting. We met Kay on the trip to the farm Chicks, and we all rode together in the van. It was a hoot!
