A big Plucky thank-you to Pam, and her crew of Plucky Maiden's for putting on another great show. It is always a great day when I get to hang with my besties from A Vintage Gathering group. And of course it would not be possible without all you wonderful customers that keep us striving for bigger and better! Plus, I just LOVE doing what I do, and I'll keep following my passion, until I can go no more. Is that possible?! This is a picture of my space with my sister, Jeanna, and her daughter, Shelby.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jeanna, and Shelby of Rustoration. Jeanna has only been doing this a few years now, and she has a really great eye for interesting things. I love what she always brings to the flea. Shelby has really got into jewelry making, and it is hard to believe she is only 16 years old, and my very talented niece!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZf-a9ZMe2V_q2DWYVtsyqVr547ja1tM_L_JJzLrMei42pPbO5JdMt7aBOeQNSWzbSihCzR0BZ00DQuJ0EsoFlAMTRec6sXiBjWLqoXopEmL8lOnleXAF_YhrA3gFvWItSzK0KtQl2D0I/s1600/DSCN1006.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" oda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZf-a9ZMe2V_q2DWYVtsyqVr547ja1tM_L_JJzLrMei42pPbO5JdMt7aBOeQNSWzbSihCzR0BZ00DQuJ0EsoFlAMTRec6sXiBjWLqoXopEmL8lOnleXAF_YhrA3gFvWItSzK0KtQl2D0I/s320/DSCN1006.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>

The pre-fest begins Friday night at 5pm-8pm, and continues on Saturday at 10am-4pm. We would love to see you all there! I will be vendor #36, right in between my sister, Jeanna of "Rustoration", and Sue from "Bird Song". They both have the bestest stuff! And as it turns out, you will also see more familiar faces from A Vintage Gathering Flea Market on our street. </div>

I guess it's been awhile since I have done a post.......so sorry! So, what's new?! Joanne, at Camas Antiques called me, and offered me a bigger space, and of course I had to jump on that bandwagon.

I have had this adorable old Victorian half chest forever! It is in perfect shape, and I just don't get it! I just reduced the price to $52, so I just want it gone! If someone were to buy it today, it would be another 10% off. Anyone?............ On another note, I have also been busy getting ready the <a href="http://pluckymaidens.blogspot.com/">Plucky Maiden </a>flea market in just 27 days! My sister will selling in her own space right next to me, and I tell you what! She has some great stuff! Her and I were the only two at a big ol' barn sale last weekend, and we could hardly contain our excitement! We were like kids in a candy store! She was gawking at my pile (sorry, I got there first!), and I was drooling over her pile. Yes, we were in farm junk heaven! I even found a mid-century tulip chair sitting in the loft of the barn.

My biggest and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">bestest</span> piece is this very cool primitive work bench. The possibilities are <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">endless</span> with this wonderful piece. I brought this home, (hanging out the end of my Nissan <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Xterra</span>), and my husband thought it would be great for the garage. <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">Umm</span>, I don't think so! I envision it as a kitchen island, or maybe as a dining room buffet table. It has two working vises on it, and the board in the back opens up for storage. That was probably where they kept their tools.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSOUOUb8BpzpQv7NroKW1XEsEP9d6EWXBGq8Rzsu7vimBzZduGvllwbZoaxCVZWZBwZhJL7qDtvYetWSFAOu36o_zRMFaaanL2-BP10OmvwYWKH_Ci0kql6lZmaCTrXflNIGpNh1RY4nI/s1600/DSCN0972.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699744661497963890" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSOUOUb8BpzpQv7NroKW1XEsEP9d6EWXBGq8Rzsu7vimBzZduGvllwbZoaxCVZWZBwZhJL7qDtvYetWSFAOu36o_zRMFaaanL2-BP10OmvwYWKH_Ci0kql6lZmaCTrXflNIGpNh1RY4nI/s320/DSCN0972.JPG" /></a><br />So, my new space at <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error">Camas</span> is on the top floor, all the way to the back, in a room all to myself. I am really loving it! I always have <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error">alot</span> of "inventory", so there is no problem in keeping this room plum full. So far, business has been very well, and I have restocked three times, since the move in day on Jan 2<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-error">nd</span>. Thank-you!, Thank-you!</div><br /><br /><div>While <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_8" class="blsp-spelling-error">Camas</span> Antiques, and my space at <a href="http://uncoveredruby.blogspot.com/">Uncovered Ruby's </a>has kept me busy, I have also been trying to get ready for the <a href="http://funkyjunksisters.blogspot.com/">Junk Salvation flea market </a>coming up. The date is Feb. 3rd, and Feb. 4<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_9" class="blsp-spelling-error">th</span>. That is right around the corner!

A lakeside village that sits on 16 miles of a beautiful lake. When you think of small town USA, and how you wished your little town looked, this place was the perfect example. Every one's porches were decked out in all of Autumns glory with pumpkins, mum's, and cornstalks. You can tell these people must love their cute little town. And, we found the best place to eat! Be sure and visit "Doug's Fish Fry".

We were passing through Aurora NY, and I had no idea that her shop/house was just around the corner from us. What a great surprise!

I mean everything I picked up, was at least $100. Ok, there was a small bowl, for only $90! I guess I am just so thrifty, that it is so hard to justify charging crazy prices. I wasn't going to buy anything, and I even walked out of the shop empty handed, but a greater force pulled me back in. I knew I would be mad at myself, if I at least didn't buy a little souvenir from this wonderful place. So I ended up buying a cute little compote bowl, and YES, I will be using it at my next party.

I know I am just loving it!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbuCGBht10c_LQcAH7sLtMBPaYqQ7_nhOdVD8u8PLGhWxGcPvgkvZ_sEYhrupGM69g3ft0iG1UbDXMw43Ndw8x6LltgXdp9laOEMwD7bcZF1kdP3ZxtqgtpNgHWTI1ZrNHTPfvhw1n2-w/s1600/DSCN0671.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603593291648513810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbuCGBht10c_LQcAH7sLtMBPaYqQ7_nhOdVD8u8PLGhWxGcPvgkvZ_sEYhrupGM69g3ft0iG1UbDXMw43Ndw8x6LltgXdp9laOEMwD7bcZF1kdP3ZxtqgtpNgHWTI1ZrNHTPfvhw1n2-w/s320/DSCN0671.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVwDvI9miOgDuk7FXwuoV_zcmaTV3Bn9mpETDa7t7JabdzfCbsP6I50O17MWRtY4oFBdtIdhOhXg-F5ipvLh_L7NXaaP3avA9VWQo6bWNQ2R1beWVv71yyyzsjjmAxEJZLqccc-2WNSfM/s1600/DSCN0669.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603593041673494642" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVwDvI9miOgDuk7FXwuoV_zcmaTV3Bn9mpETDa7t7JabdzfCbsP6I50O17MWRtY4oFBdtIdhOhXg-F5ipvLh_L7NXaaP3avA9VWQo6bWNQ2R1beWVv71yyyzsjjmAxEJZLqccc-2WNSfM/s320/DSCN0669.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgffd2IMchmAMEZD69IDCI9aC8hy-ZHccZDHG28Sy8VS2g4od32FT4vXx-PfZeXx1eboUlI4GIz0WZ7A-T8aBEOYmtRKcQ28mZJID2vW7Ho962MPcetSocWp26mOaE-pvuuHlkMliRrJRw/s1600/DSCN0666.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603592565695152834" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgffd2IMchmAMEZD69IDCI9aC8hy-ZHccZDHG28Sy8VS2g4od32FT4vXx-PfZeXx1eboUlI4GIz0WZ7A-T8aBEOYmtRKcQ28mZJID2vW7Ho962MPcetSocWp26mOaE-pvuuHlkMliRrJRw/s320/DSCN0666.JPG" border="0" /></a> Hope to see you tomorrow, and please bring alittle sunshine our way!

The 14th annual Mother's Day plant and <a href="http://cwplantfair.org/">garden fair </a>is coming up on Saturday, May 7th at the Camas High School. There will be over 80 vendors, and they have moved it to this different location, so there is more room for everyone. The address is 26900 SE 15th St. Camas, WA. My mom, and I go to this every year, but this year, I am a vendor! I am very excited, because I have a ton of stuff that would look great in your yard or garden. I have been making a few signs. <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1xsM1reOxuaaKRSN5-nPDOp3fZkYKPAKoLqiE1awVENDU5unQvLzJEYe2J8IB4qBc8be09iQcgECnIvgdFdORG1d2igGfdgdn0kFDsSFb1Vh2AaN7OHNa4LRlJ0QyK1JxHclqDtYOsk8/s1600/DSCN0652.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5596934079653033042" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1xsM1reOxuaaKRSN5-nPDOp3fZkYKPAKoLqiE1awVENDU5unQvLzJEYe2J8IB4qBc8be09iQcgECnIvgdFdORG1d2igGfdgdn0kFDsSFb1Vh2AaN7OHNa4LRlJ0QyK1JxHclqDtYOsk8/s320/DSCN0652.JPG" border="0" /></a> I have been finding alot of neat garden stuff.

I moved to the back of the shop to a bigger space 3 months ago. All I have to say is...........What took me so long?!! It certainly wasn't the lack of stuff , cuz everyone knows, I could probably fill up the entire store! I simply cheaped out, and was afraid to commit. Just let me say, that the last 3 months have been fabulous!! I would like to say a big thank you to all my awesome customers! I really love what I do, and decorating my space, feels like it has become an extension of my home.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXjIYPX_f90RFtKrPC-52yVGJOTwdproosFfJ_H4VAwe67qcptTTA9f05jY6nEf7l6DA8WBJvha2yFkMYf6ZZODSAMJ1_AAZC_uEwCzfVGtFp1s4VVHZ1NXgemVtxwMVPCECWVRSvDfcE/s1600/DSCN0626.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5569841876556821122" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXjIYPX_f90RFtKrPC-52yVGJOTwdproosFfJ_H4VAwe67qcptTTA9f05jY6nEf7l6DA8WBJvha2yFkMYf6ZZODSAMJ1_AAZC_uEwCzfVGtFp1s4VVHZ1NXgemVtxwMVPCECWVRSvDfcE/s320/DSCN0626.JPG" border="0" /></a> My mantel sold last week, and I am both happy, and sad.

My statue of limitations is a year......do it now.....or I never, ever, will. I didn't feel too bad spray painting it, cuz it doesn't work any more, but a cuckoo clock is like a work of art.

Now I need to get back to some good junky business! Remember that really hot day about a month ago, that reached a 100 degrees? Well, it turned out to be a very good junking day for me. There weren't too many garage saler's out that day, so I didn't have to fight anybody off! This big corner shelf will have to get some new paint.

That would be 127 miles from Portland. It's called the Portland to Coast, and it's the largest relay race in the Pacific Northwest. There are 1,000 running teams (Hood to Coast), and 400 walking teams. My walking team consists of two guys, and six girls, all in one van until we reach the beach. Yep, it's nice and cozy! And yep, we do get smelly! It's a good thing we like each other! Everyone on my team has to walk three legs, which are <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">approximately</span> 5-6 miles each. Oh yeah, and we have to walk fast.....very fast!<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghppRKPe4d7eDvEgwoNIsXpk71gY3JjmPEnOeCY2uF3SmHOm47CrARWaIIduTQVfP2hiB_OvUFd-zGrF0YxjsdSgWoxeSOCdmp1A6Qt5xd0PD99gJyIJAXpXTkHo-UwXZVFfCBUKnqaYg/s1600/DSCN0454.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512099031913550754" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghppRKPe4d7eDvEgwoNIsXpk71gY3JjmPEnOeCY2uF3SmHOm47CrARWaIIduTQVfP2hiB_OvUFd-zGrF0YxjsdSgWoxeSOCdmp1A6Qt5xd0PD99gJyIJAXpXTkHo-UwXZVFfCBUKnqaYg/s320/DSCN0454.JPG" border="0" /></a> After only 15 miles into the race, we had some van trouble. Good grief!, this picture looks too much like a picture from my camping trip a month ago. I do not want to repeat that! After a minor repair of replacing the fan belt, we are on our way.

A big thank you to my sister Jeanna, (whom I could kick myself for not getting a picture!) for helping me. My son Danny, and hubby for loading, unloading, and loading up what was left. And of course thank-you to all my awesome customers, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">cuz</span> you are why I love to do this!

Of course, we all start planning for the next one, which for me will be in September. I am taking the whole month of August with no flea markets planned, but still very action packed! First up, a much needed break, with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">alittle</span> camping trip into Oregon.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9v-NOPFrvVPFlVe-i2djIFRWgIxrph1UzlxKWvSe_kt5VgDin9aYn1PMA9_W7dEfHw1rCTs3bo3owsNeLZHjca_KV5M9PU9pLcVDi4gatgS5oZUzRs1HnpGa7pFVc_DLaTiB8FfCL4Gs/s1600/DSCN0389.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5503096463962570498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9v-NOPFrvVPFlVe-i2djIFRWgIxrph1UzlxKWvSe_kt5VgDin9aYn1PMA9_W7dEfHw1rCTs3bo3owsNeLZHjca_KV5M9PU9pLcVDi4gatgS5oZUzRs1HnpGa7pFVc_DLaTiB8FfCL4Gs/s320/DSCN0389.JPG" border="0" /></a> We were so close to our first camping spot, however the truck decided it was just not meant to be! A good thing <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">ODOT</span> came along, and called us a tow truck. We spent our first night at the Bend Ford parking lot, arriving sometime around midnight. We were up bright and early the next morning begging, asking nicely to please fix us! After <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">squeezing</span> us into their very busy schedule, the prognosis was a broken injector thingy. Of course, the injector thingy was not cheap, but crap happens sooner or later! I think I'm glad it happened on day number one, and now onward with the relaxing vacation! And a big thank you to "Roberson Ford" in Bend, Oregon!<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGi-1VD0b8j3JRiSyKkjhz_9G1Fgzy7ChZFEkydaSv_aNhWz9s2vfuFcPoN-FVGlOcJaaLJdC7zMNu6HclzsdILlf18jXvPk6NgkbWmQf1FRoeAwtEB_BmeHvM1k5YXiRKnjsNklD4nPQ/s1600/DSCN0414.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5503096162808716786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGi-1VD0b8j3JRiSyKkjhz_9G1Fgzy7ChZFEkydaSv_aNhWz9s2vfuFcPoN-FVGlOcJaaLJdC7zMNu6HclzsdILlf18jXvPk6NgkbWmQf1FRoeAwtEB_BmeHvM1k5YXiRKnjsNklD4nPQ/s320/DSCN0414.JPG" border="0" /></a> This is a happy camper! We managed to score three nights at the Cove Palisades campground. We always fly by the seat of our pants. Who needs reservations?! Life is more interesting that way!

What do you think?<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiG59bTnfcFfbEjNy5YY4cCiBS4ZFlHQETzA8buKRk5uqdzvBJZZSmoPHd_OKwvDzTONcgpq1ELcPr_qM5NER_jlkZXs4Kk3rW9b1gWoUWfeSw3tfhMD3OdGFSO4iJYcsL7zwRBTC7Dl0/s1600/DSCN0382.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498350242556376530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiG59bTnfcFfbEjNy5YY4cCiBS4ZFlHQETzA8buKRk5uqdzvBJZZSmoPHd_OKwvDzTONcgpq1ELcPr_qM5NER_jlkZXs4Kk3rW9b1gWoUWfeSw3tfhMD3OdGFSO4iJYcsL7zwRBTC7Dl0/s320/DSCN0382.JPG" border="0" /></a> Another new concrete find. This is a three piece fountain, and it is adorable! I don't mind packing this one around!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi90nzeF1iMjI7hJZ8BFmGqSiWyakOzahX9qSRFSNQtpoH4OBNovYN3h4CZkv4ieqLIFypod5LpM3dhYYqcrRtrDXwQcHXqeqATdN4hY2erk8ccaWZ8Z7MAVNcfYHP4qWqNN79VI81ap-E/s1600/DSCN0380.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498349932474526082" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi90nzeF1iMjI7hJZ8BFmGqSiWyakOzahX9qSRFSNQtpoH4OBNovYN3h4CZkv4ieqLIFypod5LpM3dhYYqcrRtrDXwQcHXqeqATdN4hY2erk8ccaWZ8Z7MAVNcfYHP4qWqNN79VI81ap-E/s320/DSCN0380.JPG" border="0" /></a> I actually acquired this set with motel chairs, by knocking on the lady's door. I have been driving by them for two years, and they have been sitting in her front yard, through the rain and snow. Poor chairs! They deserve better than that! So, I thought I was rescuing them! It turns out that Edna was planning on selling them anyway. I call it perfect timing! You just never know. These will be coming to the sale too.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBvLy9VqK6O_89IC2K1AZAeLZYKybQzCf43R10ySUQAZJCdB6FY5g4jUoYVPu16qKG3u8R4SXqQbuw02L7cW-O3maygTJ4nRaF5yDtSLV0PMxL8QtbaV-_HBGX7Lfla-wfnAR3tpRm6vc/s1600/DSCN0375.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498349528914832018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBvLy9VqK6O_89IC2K1AZAeLZYKybQzCf43R10ySUQAZJCdB6FY5g4jUoYVPu16qKG3u8R4SXqQbuw02L7cW-O3maygTJ4nRaF5yDtSLV0PMxL8QtbaV-_HBGX7Lfla-wfnAR3tpRm6vc/s320/DSCN0375.JPG" border="0" /></a> My son, Danny is planning on helping me again with the <a href="http://avintagegathering.blogspot.com/">Vintage Gathering </a>flea market. Boy, is he in for a surprise, when he <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">see's</span> how busy we're gonna be! He'll be the one carrying the concrete to your car that you might want to buy!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>My Shabby Passionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00508898800285726497noreply@blogger.com2
