Junque Gal in the City at Green Table Gifts

...So I have been very busy getting ready to sell at Green Table Gifts 2nd Anniversary Celebration. I have been having great luck picking in the last couple of weeks - it's always feast or famine. I will probably have a dry spell soon and get frantic about having junque for the Junk In The Trunk November show!!
I have been getting a lot of what I like to call "New Country" or I have been styling it to be. I am staging in my living room to see how all these pieces go together, lots of gray, creamy white, distressed wood & rusty metal! I recovered a couple of stool seats in a tiny gray and white checked material, I love it! I will post some pictures on the blog when I get done staging!

New Tablet for my blog

So today my new tablet  came so I can take & post pictures and blog from anywhere.....how exciting! Since my laptop crashed I was either trying  to post from my phone or sharing the desktop with the hubs! So now I  feel as free as a bird and can share alot more of my painting projects!

Junk In The Trunk Vendor Open House

So this afternoon I left Casa Grande early to attend the JunkIn The Trunk Vendor Open House! As expected I was not disappointed of course the JI T T girls had a great spread and lots of fun in store! Met some new dealers & lots if old friends, in fact I will probably be horse tomorrow from talking so much! So happy to see my friend Pat Vintage Gypsy we will have so much fun selling at the April Market!
I did stop along the way to visit Green Table Gifts at the new location and try out the new free workshop and learned to mix paint to make some great brown colors. I will def go to future workshops.
Along the way I could not resist stopping at some thrift stores and scored a birdcage and a vintage bicycle basket!

An estate sale, an auction & a visit to Gatherings

Well left in the dark Friday morning to go to an estate sale. The hubs came with me since his truck was in the shop and I was dropping him off at work. It turned out to be a good thing as he was 2nd in line. Once I got inside I spotted a beautiful green medical cabinet so put a SOLD sign and as I entered the next room saw another green cabinet so i said to the hubs, which one should we get, his reply get them both! I love that man! So Saturday we went to an auction that was outside, brrrrrrrr! But I got some really cool stuff, no pun intended! Came home unloaded the truck and went down to In a Pear Tree to meet up with my buds, Kirstin & Amy and headed down to Gather Vintage Market in Tucson. What a great venue A corrugated metal building with lots of wooden beams, so cool to hang stuff from! Really great vintage items displayed in great ways, wish I could have gone everyday so I wouldn't have missed anything! Will definitely go again! Then we went to 1702 for some of the best pizza &a beer! Then like true junquers we stopped at a few thrift stores where I got a cool old cement swan! All told a fab day!
