McKale at 5 months


Here is a new picture of McKale at 5 1/2 months. I can't believe how fast he is growing and how quick the time is going. I enjoy every minute I have with him. He is such a good baby!

Pictures of my booth






I have had one busy month at the shop where I rent space. I have made more money this month then I ever had, and it feels good! I work very hard...I feel it's starting to pay off...yippee! Last Sunday I went into the shop and worked on my booth for 3 hours! I sold so much this past week I had to go again this Sunday and stock it up. I had fun playing around last Sunday, but was really not in the mood today. When I get there my mood usually changes and I just have fun with it!

Here are some pictures of my booth...check out my halloween kittens...those were fun to make! Have a good week everyone!

I'm Featured on Enchanted Makeovers and Jewels




For those of you who follow my blog you know that I made some stuffed kittens for Enchanted Makeovers. They featured me on their blog and took some pics of the kittens! I am so happy that they did that...what a honor. Please check out their blog at www.enchantedmakeovers.blogspot.com

I also made a necklace for my friend Kathy Stantz in Ohio. She made a flea market bag and so I promised to make her some jewelry. This is how it turned out and I put it on an old bingo card for presentation. I will be posting some pictures in the future of others I have made.

I hope you are all having a great week...thanks for checking in!

Pictures from my booth at the Flea Market






I am one beat girl! Lots of work goes into doing flea markets. I just do the one here in Sioux Falls. I couldn't imagine traveling. Not at this point in my life! I wanted to share some photos with you of my booth space. I didn't sell as much as I would of liked to, but I can't complain because I came home with more money then I arrived with. I only bought two things. I bought a ornate mirror that I will paint white (a steal for $5) and a chippy looking doll for my collection (another steal at $4!)
If you see anything you are interested in (in the pictures) you can always email me at vintagemama4@live.com
Thanks for checking in with me...have a great week!

Sioux Falls Flea Market




Hey everyone...sorry I have been AWOL. I have an upcoming flea market this weekend, and I have been so busy preparing! Lot's of painting, creating, junking and pricing. Not to mention washing linens, cleaning items up and the everyday stuff that comes with life and 5 kids. I am so exhausted. Next week I will be recouping for sure! Next week Friday happens to be my birthday and I was planning to go to Junk Bonanza and now I don't know if we will be able to make it. We'll see what happens!



For all you in the Sioux Falls area...The Benson Flea Market is this weekend 12th & 13th out at the fairgrounds. Come out and visit my booth and me! I will take some pictures and post soon!
