*smile*

it’s time for a happy heart friday post!

my sweet friend Lanna came to Marburger Farm last Spring and popped in to say “hi”!  it means the world to me when friends take time to stop by…i mean, it’s no small sacrifice to give up valuable shopping time and that’s not lost on me!

she handed me a gift…

on a tiny saucer…be still my heart!

does life get better than a cherished friendship?  i think not!

stop by her shop, Antique Queens in Rockdale…it is so worth it!

~ it’s friday…enjoy!

home!

from the Dolly Johnson Antique & Art Show!  it was a superfun time and a really great show!  an impressive eclectic mix of JUNK…everything from authentic, fine antiques to, well, me!

i loved being sandwiched between my sweet friends Ann and Stephanie!  there was much giggling!  imagine.

and in a complete stroke of luck, i actually got to hug the neck of my favorite red.neck gurl, Robelyn!  turns out she was doing a handmade show, with her amazing creations, just across the street!  bonus!

while my load was not so easy, my space came together beautifully!  phew!

she makes me happy…

i was kinda sad when the heart yoke sold…

what’s not to love about a mop bucket?  when these restaurant coffee cups went poof!

i filled the mop bucket with silver goblets….

tah-dah!

i know you thought i was kidding when i said in my last post that there was not room for a “sheet of paper” in Mighty…as i got situated to make the drive to ft. worth i was looking for a place to keep my chapstick (a must!) and there was only one possibility…thank goodness for the a/c vent!

there you have it!  i look forward to participating in this show next year!

now i’m neck deep in JUNK getting ready for Marburger Farm!  i can hardly wait!

March is booked!

this year isn’t quite behind me and already 2012 is calling my name!  i’m pretty sure it’s not possible for next year to be as busy as this year…unless of course, i just jinxed myself…it will be full, cuz that’s the way i roll, but hopefully not overflowing!

my contract for the Dolly Johnson Antique & Art Show has been mailed!  i’ve not set-up at this show before and i’m really looking forward to it! 

i’ll have to take my A-game because Ann will be my neighbor and
her taste is impeccable!  maybe i’ll do a little spit & polish on my JUNK…nah!

of course, i’ll be returning to Marburger in the Spring!  it’s
“March” on my calendar for set-up, but the actual show dates are
April 3 – 7.

heck, if i can do both, so can you!  if your schedule is anything like mine then i know it fills up fast!  get those calendars marked cuz i’d love to see you in Ft. Worth and Round Top!

in my spare time…

Which I seem to mostly have between midnight and 3am!  In the midst of it ALL I decided to take on a small home improvement projectthat word pops up a lot in my world!  Not sayin’ that’s a good thing…if you know my history…

Three days after I return from Marburger Farm company is coming!  Always fun, but now the unaccomplished goals from Summer are haunting me!

So, I scheduled the removal of the carpet in the guest room and hardwoods are going down…tomorrow!  It would probably be an excellent time for you to start worrying about me!

the room is down to the bones…i need to take apart the bed and get it out of there…

a pile of furniture now taking up precious space in the tee-vee room…

i have a big closet in that room that houses all the Christmas-Crap…which is now stacked in the bathroom, dining room, study…etcetcetc…i’ll spare you those pics!

the mattress and box springs now living between the couch and breakfast table…

I’ve got my eye on the prize and my mind on a little redecorating!  See ya when the dust cloud clears!

I know I don’t need to remind you…but I will…the SweetTalk September give-away continues!  You want this…SweetTalk Christmas Package up for grabs!  Leave a comment and I’ll throw your name in the bowl!
