January seems to last forever here in the Midwest... Thank goodness the sun is out today... It was quite a bittersweet sight for me yesterday, as we drove by our local FIREMEN'S PARK Fair Grounds ~ where Cedarburg's Maxwell Street Flea Market is held. Now, at this time of year, a huge field covered in snow ~ with the bleacher area wall advertising "2010" FLEA MARKET DATES" - MAY 30th being the first one of the 2010 season... I have had a booth there (May Date Only) for the past 6 years... Last May - 2009, was one of my "BeST Ever" Sales at this Fair Grounds...
OMG!*!*! What a refreshing sight - especially at this time of year... I always adorn my booth with fresh flowers for my outdoor flea market sales...
My May 2009 flea market booth in Cedarburg, Wisconsin...
I always have a lot of "Garden Theme" items at this time of year...
My "fussy" jewery nook pretties...
Maxwell Street set-up is on Saturday... Open to the public on Sunday... Everything gets covered with a tarp before the big day... ~ Midwest dew... I can't thank my husband enough for helping me with ALL the honey-dos - repairing all the little stuff - adding hangers, glueing, nailing, electrical wiring, etc. ThANk YOU Froggie!*!*! ~ Yes, my husband looks like a FROG ~ turned "Prince"!**!
A most successful SaLe!!!
Hopefully I'll get the same booth location for 2010... I've been located in the outfield - "Kitty-Corner" from the kettle corn vendor, on the East/West Row, mid way... Booth #1020... Easy exit to the front gate on Washington... Hope to see you SUNDAY, MAY 30th... Mark your calendar... New opening time 7 a.m.
LUV all your pix,
