ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! Booth LAST SUNDAY @ Cedarburg's MAXWELL STREET FLEA...

Making a "last minute decison" - to once again sell at Cedarburg's Maxwell Street Flea,

 was definitely a good one!!!

 I tappered my selling stock to accommodate the needs of this "lower-end" Junker Market and it worked!*!*!  Filling containers with flowers... AND combining like-colors, yielded little display effort on my part , which was welcomed ~ especially AFTER having a SaLe at Our Home - the day before... 

 I'm just A*M*A*Z*E*D at how many items flew out of my booth!!!

It was all about the "lower price point"...

It was a good feeling to know my "regular customers" 

found me in my new booth location as well...

Cotage-Style Porch/Potting TAbLe

Time-worn Old light blue paint

~ Still Available ~

Great Form!*!*!

• Rusty Crusty Planter Bucket...

•Re-Purposed Industrial Light Housing

Found Good Homes...

 BeSt PaTiNa

Naturally time~worn Bucket...

Sooooo much more interesting than brand new!*!*!

 Yummy Orange Colors

made EVERYTHING P*O*P...

 New ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! Customer, Sandy -

Vamped Over This MIrror as soon as the 

other Customer walked away!*!*!

BY DAY'S END
It only took an unheard of 30 minutes to
pack-it-up, tent included - YES!*!*!
Thank YOU SHaBBy ShoPPers!!!
