Saturday morning, David and I hit the road, gps plugged in. We stopped at garage sales along the way, picking up a few bargains.
Our first scheduled stop was Carolyn Westbrook's Summer Market in Chatfield. We enjoyed the less than 100 degree weather as our eyes beheld Carolyn's wonderful decor and linens.
I really liked this industrial piece with the mirror atop. Sharp! For more pics from Carolyn's, go here. By the way, all of these pictures were taken by David. Boyfriend and photographer extraordinaire. (When you view his sets, I highly recommend watching the slideshow. You will see that option in the upper right hand side of your flickr screen.)




After drooling on all the good stuff here, we hit the road with Malakoff set on our gps. We had to stop and see Donna and Debra of Curious Goods. Here are the pics that David took at Curious Goods.




I hope you enjoyed!
Happy Monday!

PS. I just got an update regarding Haylie, Marcie's granddaughter, who I mentioned Thursday and Friday. Her surgery was this morning for the brain tumor. The doctors were able to remove all the brain tumor, however preliminary tests indicate the tumor is malignant. No course of treatment has been decided, pending additional lab test results. Please continue to pray for this family and the medical professionals.
This post with all of David's pictures was better than any Country Living magazine!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your weekend with us.

I LOVE the building Winnies & Tulula's is in! It's a great backdrop for antiques, and there is just something that calls my name when I see rust. Thanks to David for sharing all the pix's!

Erin, I rarely sit still.
ReplyDeleteDebbie, I'm not sure what PDE is. But, I don't think you could look bad in that dress. Did I mention I want it?
In case y'all didn't see the ps part, go back and read about Haylie.
And yes. I agree. David rocks!

That was a great tour. Did you shop till you dropped? I am so sad that I missed Carolyn Westbook's show. I guess I'll catch it next time.

ReplyDeleteMindy,
ReplyDeleteI absolutely HATE having my picture taken, but I knew David could not be stopped, so I did not even try to stop him. He took some great shots of our place, so I have added his Fliker page to the top of my blog for all to see. When he is famous, I want to be remembered as one of the ones who knew him back when.....
Hey Mindy, I need your help. Ok, I got a surprise yesterday from Steve ... he's going to take a vacation for my birthday next week. Ok, we have a few choices of things we can do. He has arranged places for Molly to stay so me and him can get off together for a few days (we haven't done this in ages!), one of his suggestions of something we could do is go to Canton, TX to the flea market. What do you think? Do you think it would be worth the 8 hr drive for us to go? And the weather, do you think it'd be so hot we'd die? If we could should we pull the trailer, etc. I am just trying to figure out what to do, I want to go so bad butttttttt we already have another trip planned for Labor Day weekend to the beach again so I just don't know. I am so excited though that he's done this for me, that we get to do something fun together. I am going to post on my blog (may be tomorrow or sometime of what he did yesterday, how he gave me the options for my birthday. Ok...sorry for such a long comment, talk to you later.

Great photos! I'm still not done looking through all of them! Ha!
