Easter Table Centerpiece with ChiPPy-WHiTE Clay Pots & more...

 "Cheerful Delights" at the Grocery Store - Yesterday!*!*!

~*Precious Viola Plants in Dirt*~

Sooooo thrilled to be greeted at the grocery store entrance yesterday, by these pretty, uplifting - 

~*Fresh & Alive Flowering Viola Plants*~

WORKING WITH WHAT I HAVE ~  popped these dirt encased beauties in some chippy-white clay pots I had stacked in the garage...   NEXT - found just the right container with "hints-of-rust" to display them in as a table centerpiece.  The addition of a ViNtaGe Mache Easter Bunny was like "jewelry on the dress"...  Hope this brings a smile to your face as much as it does mine! 

Hope you're "lucky-enough" to find a Chocolate Bunny

 in your Easter Basket THIS YEAR!!!  

Remembering the days of our little independently-owned Candy Store, inside the Stage Couch Inn Bed & Breakfast,  Cedarburg -Wisconsin...

**Mysterious Industrial Bins** - The BeSt!*!*!

OMG!*!*! A few mornings ago, as Jeff and I were gazing from our windows, WE SAW THREE METAL INDUSTRIAL BINS STACKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY!!!   WHO dropped these off????  Where did they come from???  We made a few phone calls - NO MYSTERY SOLVED JUST YET...  Whoever it was, I "Thank You"!!! - Love Them!!! 

Are these AwEsoMe or What!*!*!  I'm keeping just one...  Endless display possibilities with seasonal adornments from nature...

Early Fall is in the air...

YES, The PuMpKiNs are OUT!!!  I picked up just a few, along with some Indian Corn to add a "hint of Fall" to my Booth Space at this weekend's Maxwell Street Flea Market, in Cedarburg, at Firemen's Park...  See my sidebar for details...

**ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! - Saturday's ViNtaGe SaLe** - Cedarburg, WI

Where was EVERYONE this past SaTurDay?????  I had such GREAT drive-by exposure, - positioning my Tent at the mouth of our driveway...   HOWEVER - our usual road traffic was SLIM!!!  I put an AD in the paper...  Advertised on my Blog...  Had Fab Signs at the corner... I even had quite a few prices as low as $4.-$6.- Sometimes there were lulls of more than 45 minutes when no one even stopped...  I did however make some Great New CUSTOMERS & lots of chit-chat I otherwise would not have enjoyed!!!    Oddly enough most of the sales were things I've had a long time...  All and All - by days end I was still pleased with the Sales I did make...  (click to enlarge)

Sweet Treats!*!*!  

I usually go "all out" and have coffee along with a sweet treat...  I only sold 2 pieces of lemon tea bread...   and the Coffee Pumps were nearly full by days end...

OMG!*!*!  - I'd say things were just a bit "off" on Saturday...

NEXT SALE - at Cedarburg's Maxwell Street Flea Market at Firemen's Park Fairgrounds, Labor Day Weekend.  (See Sidebar for details)...

I'm not giving up...  I will have a few more monthly "RoadSide Sales" at the house this year...  It was just an odd weekend with last minute vacations before the kids go back to school & the weather didn't help any - being extremely HOT & HUMID...  

Many thanks to my friend SANDY who got there early to help me set up!!!! & of course my "Frog Husband"...  & those of you who did come out even if it was just to "say hellooooo"...   Jeanine

Saturday's SaLe...

This past Saturday I held A Small Roadside Sale!*!*! - ONE TENT - ONE DAY...  Oddly enough, drive-by traffic was SLIM...  However, at days end - it was well worth ALL MY EFFORTS!!! - Thank Goodness...  More pics along with the day's chit-chat - come Monday...

It's just a GoRgeOuS Sunday here - the humidity finally lifted... We're Out-And-About to enjoy the rest of this Day!!!
