WHY DO I COLLECT?

Why do I collect? That's easy... because it's so much fun! Ever since I can remember I have been going to flea markets, antique shops, yard sales, you name it. Wherever I could find some sort of interesting treasure or cool piece of junk! I love driving around in search of new places or revisiting my favorite spots. I come from a family of collectors and have lived amongst antiques and collectibles my whole life. I have a passion for decorating especially with things that I find in my travels or even things found in the trash... which by the way can be some of the best stuff! But for those who share the same passion, I don't have to tell you... you all know what fun it is and how addicting it can be! Here I will share my collections, interesting finds, decorating tips, photos, projects, friends collections and thoughts and whatever else I may find along the way.

Weekend Finds...

Fun weekend of flea marketing.
Saturday morning out with friends Mark and Carol.
Stopped at Jakes first but unfortunately 
there were hardly any vendors. 
Guess it was due to the rain the day before? Oh well...

Then on to Zionsville Antique Mall.
Picked up the nice Pyrex Butterprint/Amish pattern bowl
and the green Haeger planter (pictured below left)

Sunday, we did a quick spur-of-the-moment trip 
to the Columbus Flea Market where I picked up the 
green Pyrex bowl, blue bowl and nice Glassbake loaf pan 
with yellow flowers... yay! And also this nice green 
Floraline planter pictured on the right.
It was a good weekend!  :-)

    Totally jels. I was at the Columbus Antique mall about 2 weeks ago. Wish they had that blue bowl! You're lucky.

    Butterprint is always great to pick up, too!
