Dear Blog, I’m sorry I’ve neglected you this summer. Please forgive me! I have thought about updating you every day, does that count for something?! It has recently come to my attention that people are actually reading you and an update is in order. Since it has been so long, I won’t bore you with the entire summer. I’m just going to jump in with the most current activities. Here we go…
I recently made a trip out to Canton Trade Days, one of my favorite places to look for “old stuff”. I didn’t have a game plan, but I’m always on the look out for interesting things that can be incorporated into an album, scrapbook page or my home decor. Other than that, I was just in the mood to dig through things to see what I could find.
Some of the vendors take a lot of pride in how their items are displayed. I especially love it when they group like items together. It really draws me in. Like these old microphones, just think of all the stories they could tell. I’m not even into collecting microphones but this would make a really cool display.
I like how this vendor displays their mirrors on the tree.
I love these old gas pumps. One of them would be perfect for
our Route 66 themed game room.
Another favorite vendor always has lots of letters,
typesetting blocks and game pieces. I always find a few things to pick up
here.
I did find a few treasures and am anxious to start using
them. Once I get some pictures taken, I’ll share my finds. Have a fabulous
weekend!
