First let me say what WoNderFuL vendors and such nice, nice ladies I had in my area. This was my first sale and I ended up having the best time meeting other vendors, bloggers (Miss Aurora Suzette & Miss Catty Wampus) and such nice people who bought my junk(she said lovingly). It was such fun being with people who love JuNk just as much as I do!
I saw the pillars and fell in love, instantly! I so wanted these but alas they did not come home with me! It wasn't the lack of Jennifer trying to sell them to me....I just imagined the conversation I would be having with my husband explaining how I had bought these beauties and how we would be loading them into the truck and coming home with us! Not a conversation I was willing to have!!!!!
So many talented artist at this show and seriously....a lot of incredible finds! The night before the sale, when we were trying to unload our truck of stuff, I had to keep myself from walking around to look at all the incredible stuff from other vendors. I could have easily loaded the truck back up with new finds that night!
I managed to clear out a lot of stuff. Some things that did not sell, I piled up and told the vendors around me that they could have what they wanted for free! A win win for all. They get new treasures and I get to clear out some goodies!
Thank you to my friend Michelle for helping me out on this sale! And big thanks to my husband for all his help and lifting of heavy, heavy items like the wood stove!
There were a few vendors that I had to keep returning to their booth just to make sure I did not overlook anything! Friday night was CraZY! A lot of people came out to support the Ta-Ta's and get first dibs on some pretty great treasures!
All I can say is sign me up for the next FuNkY JuNK sale!

OMG weren't those pillars awesome! I wanted the fluted ones, but they didn't stand. I cannot take on another project, so I passed. Thanks for the shout out, you!
I so wanted those pillars too! I did manage to take a few other pieces off her hands, and Oh my gosh where was I when you had the free pile? That is just not like me to miss out on free junk!! I don't think we met, you girls were pretty busy when I came by, but I loved your junk! See you next year!

So great to see you and have you as my back door neighbor at Funky Junk! I miss my old sweet shop too, but mostly the people that frequented the place there on Main St. Looking forward to next time!

Well, I'll be darned....I LOVED your little lockers, but surely don't have even a little corner left to fill here at the cottage.....my hubbs would have KILLED me....I just bought a sweet little vintage china cabinet...yeah...I would have had to move out for sure! :-)
Ahhhh...you bought that adorable little pillow. I eyed it each time I walked by. So darn cute. I'm making pillows right now and don't have a single place for one more....shot down again!
Glad to hear you did well. That's always good news, especially in this economy.
Blessings,
Spencer

I wish I was there too! Just couldn't make it to this one. Maybe the next one. Just found you though and added you to my sidebar. Love your cool junk and the fact that you are a fellow PNW gal. Have a great weekend!
Hugs,

WOW! Wish I could have been there - better still - my wallet, bank account and savings are probably glad I wasn't! Hope it was a great time - loving what you do is just as important as making money doing it - I don't think you can have one without the other!
i HAVE two 9' pillars, but am having a hard time know where to put them....i know. don't hate me.
Good Gosh.... just found your blog and I love it, Yummy Junk! Blessings, Janna
It was wonderful to meet you at the Funky Junk Sisters! And I REALLY love the chair that I brought home (and my husband did too). I hope to meet up again.
And my thanks to your husband...his help with my unloading and loading up was appreciated more that I could ever tell him.
