On the Road Again....


In the last 30 days, we have been on the road for you.
In January we shopped Atlanta...Warehouses, The Big Gift Market and Antique Shows!
We ventured wherever the taxis would take us.
We finally jumped on the bandwagon and downloaded Uber.
We froze our tootsies off, but had LOTS of fun.
We were able to take some of our favorite dealers out for dinner and drinks.
We thought we had purchased plenty but its going quickly!

 
 
Next we took a trip to the West Coast in our faithful F150 "Buddy".
He always gets us where we need to go.
Whether its the Rose Bowl, Long Beach, or Alameda Flea Market, we can always count on Buddy.
Grab your girlfriends and hit the road! Who knows what you'll find.
So what are some of your favorite roads trips?

round top antique fair!


Susan Rose and I had the extreme good fortune to head to Round Top, Texas this year for their annual antique fair, with the lovely Mary Emmerling showing us the way!  It was like a dream come true!  Rows and rows and rows of tents spread out over acres under that big, blue Texas sky.  Thank goodness we had Mary (a Round Top veteran) to show us the way or we might have been completely overwhelmed!  We came back to Phoenix with a whole truck full of amazing treasures for the shop and for some lucky design clients!  Stay tuned for what we will have in the store!


My heart just about jumped out of my chest when I saw this lovely sight...


Oh, linen.  I do love you so :)


We were keeping our eye out for some amazing, one of a kind pieces for some design clients...


Your heart would skip a beat seeing all the amazing chandeliers lining tent after tent...


And it is all so charming with chandeliers even hanging in the trees...


Trying to feed this beautiful, wild horse in a nearby field...  


I may have almost been bit :)  Luckily, he just got my bag, but it was a close one! 
They may be lovely, but be wary of wild horses!


Susan and Mary Emmerling...


Our favorite booth...

 She was from Michigan and simply walked down the beach collecting driftwood to come here and build this beautiful structure.  We were simply charmed by her whole set-up...

And, Round Top is certainly a fun place to people watch!  Just one of the many characters we met...


Just a sampling of some things "not coming to the Willows"...


The cars were lined up for miles...


What a fun week we had!  Thanks girls for the great time!

a happy mother's day to me


This year I spent a lovely Mother's Day at the Flea Market.  They just can't keep me away from that place for long :) 
I hope all you moms did something you love for your big day!

why i can't pass up old junk boxes


Because I always have some little guy in my life that needs one!
They make a great birthday present for boys and you can fill them with whatever you like!
My go-to: hot wheels.  I've never met a little boy who didn't love playing cars.

Another successful and always fun flea market adventure!
Stop in to the store to see what we brought back with us!

The coolest old, worn leather belts.
Gorgeous vintage books.
