I'm Baaaack! And I've Been Hunting!

Well that was fun! Thank you to everyone who left comments and tips about how to figure out the big mess I had with my blog. It was YUCKY! The Blogger Help Forum turned out to be my saving grace. Thank you Mishka! As you can see there are still some funny white areas. I can't get them to go away for the life of me!

 

 Last week Angie and I headed down to "Gold Rush Days" in a tiny town called Oronoco. It was huge this year and filled with so many great vintage things. I didn't take many pics though.

 

This is what the entire drive down there looks like. It's just north of Rochester Minnesota.

 

 There were so many industrial pieces this year!

 

 And these "coffee table carts were the hot item. This green one was SOLD for $175

 

Tons and Tons of smalls.

 

And Pyrex was everywhere!

 

 The guy I bought this chair from said "Look at that beautiful Folk Art paint job"! Haaa!

AS IF it's staying in this condition! lol

 

 This is for my sister in law. She and my brother bring the kids to Disney World every year and I know they have lots of Disney ornaments. This vintage stocking is mint!

 

 OK- I have hundreds of mini ornaments like this (I must admit) but I had to buy this little lot of them because I've never found the ones with mesh wrapped around them.

They'll be great in some corsages!

 

 This WAS an unopened pack of seals. I love the candle ones!

 

 I finally found some cheap reflectors that aren't perfect, so I can make things with them!

OK...I saved the best for last! This was my final purchase. And it wouldn't have been possible without my dear sweet Sister In Law (who by the way is about 36 weeks pregnant with niece #2), who gifted me some spending money before my little trip to this flea market! She insisted that I buy something fun for myself. Believe me, I argued...but she wouldn't take no for an answer!

So this is what I put the money toward....

 

 My DREAM cupboard! I can't tell you guys how long I've wanted a cool, old, green cupboard. And there it was! This is a terrible phone pic. But I can't wait to show you once I get it cleaned up and in the house. It's pretty big!

Oh...imagine the Christmas displays to be had with this! LOL

Thank you dear SIL. You are the best! And not because of the cupboard!

 

OK- Wellie wants you to know that we are sorry we missed "Market Monday" this week due to the blog mess.

There will be a market THIS COMING MONDAY FOR SURE!

(unless I wake up and my blog is all screwy again) lol

See you at 5:00PM Central Time!

Erica and Wellie :)
