What a fabulous day we had...the weather was perfect, about 74 degrees, a little breeze in the afternoon and plenty of neighborhood garage sales. It's always exciting to be out treasure hunting, but then you have to load it, unload it, clean it, store it and sometimes wonder what the heck was I thinkin when I bought that!!! So many times I have purchased something only to get it home or to the shop and see that it's broken or repaired...it's my own fault though. Today I was pretty happy. I got home in time to do a couple things in the garage and I finally did a project that has been on my mind for some time..(get it?) I found a very large metal disc (46" diameter) this last summer and decided that it needed to be a clock. It's not a working clock but it is cool....It will either go to the shop or Timi's show Ruffles and Rust http://comejunkwithus.com/ in October. Mary and I are really looking forward to this show. I don't do many shows, but this is a must. I think it will be one of the best events of the year...We have tickets on sale at the shop for the bloggers ball on Friday the 22nd. This is a dress up gala, and I still don't have a thing to wear :). Ok, that's just a quick update for now. Please be sure to vote for our shop on http://best.king5.com/. We are in the shopping category under antiques....Thanks

Nice job on the *clock* Annie! I hear you on the "what was I thinking when I bought that"? Think we all do that one time or another.
I've looked for a *prom* dress for Ruffles & Rust--they all make me look like a barn door. Still searching . . . .

P.S. See you at Sand Point Show this Sunday (eeek, I'd better get packing)!
Annie-Thanks for stopping by and saying hi to me today at Sandpoing-my very first market! I had so many people ask me if I was going to show at Ruffles and Rust but truth be told I've had the hardest time getting a hold of Timi. I would love to be able to be a vendor at some of her events but don't know how to reach her and she and I have never met. Would you be good enough to pass along her e-mail to me? I can't find it on her blog or FB page. My direct e-mail is kiama@atouchofmink.net. Thank you Annie! Kiama
Annie- I posted on my blog about the Ruffles & Rust show, there's a picture on there that I noted as being your booth, but I'm not totally sure, I know it was a shop in Snohomish, and I think it was you, feel free to check it out, and please correct me if I'm wrong.

Annie,
We had such a great time at Ruffles and Rust this weekend.... It was so great to see you and to see your booth at the event... We also enjoyed taking in Down Town Snohomish while we were there for the event.... Rene' (www.dust-n-ruffles.blogspot.com)
