Flea Market Weekend






I had a successful weekend at the Flea Market. I didn't do bad on sales and I got lots of business cards out there. I had many wonderful comments on my booth also. That makes a person feel so good! I really love what I do! That makes all the difference in life. I use to work many different jobs that I didn't like...and I felt drudgery. I am so blessed and thankful that I can stay home with my kids and do this on the side!

I'm leaving you with some picutres from the show.

GIVEAWAY!!!!


Sorry I'm so late posting my giveaway today. The last two nights have been awful...I've been up with McKale almost all night (both nights). I'm past being exhausted! I think his mouth is bothering him and he's getting some teeth. I will be glad when the teething phase is past!
Here is my giveaway. Please sign up by next Friday (Feb. 5th). The winner will receive one hand made journal by me. It has creme chenille...vintage fabric, lace, buttons and jewels. It ties shut with vintage lace. The next item is an iron on flocked birds item. I have a few and am going to alter a pair of jeans with mine. Next is a set of 6 semi-vintage porcelain napkin rings with florals. To sign up for this give away you must leave a comment on this post. If you leave a comment and are a follower your name will go in twice. If you leave a comment and become a follower then you will be entered twice. If you post on your blog about my give away then you will have a third chance. Please let me know if you do post about my give away! (vintagemama4@live.com)

White Wednesday~Around the house





Another White Wednesday is here...I am so behind today. I have been sorting through tax stuff today and helping with homework projects. My house is so neglected...not to mention the laundry. I have church in an hour and haven't made supper. You're on your own tonight guys! LOL
On Friday I will be having a small giveaway. Please visit to see what I'm giving away!

My pretty bedroom and $5 find!






I cleaned up my bedroom to take pictures today to show you how it looks. (The rest of the house is a disaster! No pictures there!) I found an awesome thing for $5 last Wednesday at Goodwill! It is the best $5 I ever spent! It is a 1928 vanity and mirror. It was already painted white. It had plain white wallpaper on the drawers. I ripped it off and then applied some vintage floral wallpaper I already had. It turned out so great! I was going to sell it, but I've always wanted one...so I am getting rid of other small pieces that were in my room.
The weather stinks here! Rain, then freezing, then snow and blowing on top of it. I am so ready for spring...will it ever get here? I'm begging!
Stay tuned as this is my 89th post...the next post will be White Wednesday, and then on Friday I will be doing a giveaway!
Hope you all have a good week and see you on White Wednesday!

Some fun projects



I've been passing the time with a few projects. I don't have alot of vintage Valentine stuff...so I've been making some burlap hearts. I've made some and put some in the shop at Cliff Ave. Flea Market and will most likely put some at Recycled Elements this coming Saturday when I work. I also made a burlap journal last night. I think it turned out really cute. I've listed these two things on my Etsy store (side bar). I also added a mom and baby kitty combo and some vintage goodies too. Leaving you with some of my pictures of the burlap heart and journal. Have a good week everyone!
