Brimfield

Well, back from another adventure at Brimfield.  Wonderful time and so many terrific things.  I found many treasures but the best was a huge lot of laboratory glass.  Just posted a couple pieces of it on Etsy here.  Check it out..... lots more to follow.

Happy Spring!

ps Check out a great blog done by Keri Seery who sold at Brimfield.  I think I liked her booth the best!

Our 1st Flynn Avenue Sunday Market

Ok, up at 5:30am, sign put around town by 7:00am.  It's dam cold out but no rain.  Hoped for a clearing and decided to go for it and hope for the best.  One vendor there at 6:30 am and ready to set up.  Day turned out to never really clear.  About 10 vendors came and set up.  God bless them all.  They tore down around noon.  Understandably.  Everyone was kind and spoke gently.  We'll hope for better days ahead.

It's finally come....

The snow!!!  Here in Vermont we expect at least one or two of these a year but this year has been different.  Not much at all until today.  It is so beautiful.  The WhistleStop is shut down for the day.  There won't be anyone looking for antiques, they'll all be on the slopes or at the country club (where this photo is taken) sliding.  Happy Winter!

Sharing a part of me....


I am a person who loves to collect. Since we moved into our home from a larger home over three years ago, I downsized & sold many of my collections. I find I now have my core collections that I love. Here is a picture of my portraits. They are on one wall in the master bedroom and my man says its like someone is watching over us! Could be maybe....
