I have been busy, busier than ever.
I am getting ready for the French flea market on Saturday, super excited!
I hope you can make it!
It's sure to be a good time rain or shine.
There are lots of fabulous vendors and we all have tents in case of rain.
Remember, there is a Starbucks right on the corner if you need to warm up!
I'm also bringing fresh baked cookies!
Sound good?
{yes, I have 2 car fulls}
crafting, sewing, and baking.
{gasp!}
I know, but don't they look so pretty?

Were you there last year around this time? I think I may have been there! We were visiting friends in Seattle and went to the cutest little outdoor shopping mall and stumbled upon a little french market in the parking lot. I bought a few things too! Sadly I live in Phoenix, so I won't be coming this year.
I will see you there Chickie! :)

I chatted with you briefly today. I did find something to come home with me from the flea market today. A cute shabby pink bookcase. Now I just need some time to reorganize my books!
