CaLiF. Blogger ~ Visits ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! in CEDARBURG...

What a Pleasant Surprise!*!*!

California Blogger - Cynthia of Beatnheart, shot me an email early Tuesday Morning ~ and just a few hours later, we met for Coffee - in my neck of the woods - CEDARBURG, WISCONSIN...

Neither of us had met in person before - 

only knowing each other via our BLOGS...

We soooo enjoyed Chit-Chat over Coffee at JAVA HOUSE - where, as I've mentioned before - Just Vamp Over that Mirror above the fireplace!*!*!  I'm soooo glad she called, and I was available...  Blogging has changed my life with wonderful experiences such as this...

ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! ShoPPing ~ M*I*C*H*I*G*A*N

~** Michigan **~  

R*O*A*D   T*R*I*P

 *E*A*R*L*Y Friday Morning, Frog Husband & I hit the road

 for a 3-Day ShaBBy-ShoPPing Spree in Michigan...

As you can see ~ By Sunday Evening - the SHABBBY VAN

was quite F*U*L*L... 

One of our **Main ShoPPing Stops**

 was the ALLEGAN ANTIQUE MARKET...

  Neither of us had shopped this Market before...

 I could hardly believe my eyes when I spotted

 this Dealer's Booth!*!*!

OMG!*!*! ~ OMG!*!*!

Jackie definitely had my taste when it comes to a

 "Natural" time-worn chippy patina!!!

I was vamping over her booth for at least a good hour

 while she was setting up ~

and did I ever find the SHaBBies here!!! 

 Yet ANOTHER - OMG!!! ~Just FaB,  Over-The-Top Booth

BUTTER BEANS ANTIQUES...

It was such a pleasure to meet *AMY & BRAD*

Just darling couple and business partners!*!*!

And what "An-Eye" Amy has for SHaBBies!*!*!

I most certainly made quite a haul in their booth!!! 

Visit them on FaceBooK

BUTTER BEANS ANTIQUES 

This pic and the following are SHaBBy SighTinGs from the Market...

 I was so surprised to SEE Polly Hood's Booth at Allegan!!!

Her darling Husband, was "holding down the fort" - ALL BY HIMSELF,

 while Polly stayed home!!!  He did an incredible job setting

 up the eye-catching displays!*!*!

 Sandy & Joe 

of RHUBARB REIGN

are regular vendors at ALLEGAN...

Talking with my *Frog Husband*...

 I LoVed ShoPPing this Market!*!*!

NO TUBE SOCKS -or- SPICES HERE!!!

The grounds were just lovely with lots of Shade Trees...

EASY to navigate & make runs to the van..

It reminded me of THE SANDWICH ILLINOIS MARKET - 

Year's Ago, but on a smaller scale...

V*I*N*T*A*G*E Items in abundance!!!

Primitives

Antiques

Industrial 

Shabbies

only wish it wasn't that far of a drive from Wisconsin...

But Jackie & Amy's BOOTH'S Would definitely make it worth the drive!!!

Both her recipes for "Basic Pie Crust" & "Fresh Fruit Peach Pie" 

are sooooo "E*A*S*Y to make and bake...

 I "snagged" this
