B*E*S*T ~*Keeper FiNds*~ from-the-flea...


I rarely have much time to Shop-The-Flea when I'm setting up to sell...Such was the case a few weekends ago at The Elkhorn Flea in Wisconsin!  HOWEVER ~ I had about 20 minutes before the gates opened to the public &,"luck was on my side"!*!*!  
This RARELY Happens!!!

Since we're STILL HOUSE HUNTING,
and we have "4-Fully Stuffed SToRaGe UniTs"
 **I'm on what you would say **Buying-Restriction**
2-Items were my limit, & they needed to be somewhat small...
THERE IT WAS - PeRfeCtLy ChiPPy
 Vintage French Gathering Basket!!! 
Just LoVed it's Naturally Acquired Crude Time-Worn PaTiNa!!!
One-Of-A-Kind ViNtaGe
Just the way I like it!!!

BeSt-Ever, PeRfeCtLy Crusty... Rusty... Natural Time-Worn PaTiNa!!!
~*ViNtaGe SCaLe*~
•LoVed it's nice smaller manageable size...
•LoVed that one weight surface was round, - the other square...


 *LoVed that it still retained it's original glass in it's round top area...
*LoVed it's Original Mfg. Labels...



•LoVed that the backside had a brass weight measure bar with hanging ball weight...
•AND - The Natural PaTiNa couldn't have been any better...

Time~Worn Primitive *PROP TABLE* with PuMPkiNs!*!*!

One of my SHaBBy-SHoPPing Stops this past weekend, was the Grayslakes Flea in Illinois...  With time constraints, I flew through the market - and netted a FaB Primitive "Prop-Table" from Carla's Booth!*!*!

 Crude as can be!*!*!
 Rusty-Nails...  ChiPPy Paint...  
One-Of-A-Kind ViNtaGe F*I*N*D
Just PeRfeCt for Fall & UpComing
HoLiDay Displays!!!



 Working on my
 SHaBBy Show S*T*A*S*H Yesterday...
Frog Husband was cutting down tons of Wild Cucumber Vine
on the property...  The PeRfeCt Accent for my *New Find*
along with Greenish-Grey & White Pumpkins!*!*!
Unfortunately the Vine's Life will be "Short-Lived"
turning brown as it dries...  I love it's "star-like" leaves
and of course those prickly hanging berries ~ which are
 actually soft to the touch!!!







Green & White F*A*L*L PuMpKiNs, along
with the Wild Cucumber Vine, make for a 
*Farm-House Style* Vignette...

Hope your week is off to a good start!*!*!

SHaBBy SHoPPing Spree ~ Friday thru Sunday!*!*!

Is is possible to be ~ SHoPPed-Out?!?!?
ChiPPy!-SHaBByOn-The-Hunt...  
Backroads of Wisconsin, Graylake Flea,
 Elkhorn Flea

I soooo enjoy BEING ON-THE-HUNT!*!*!
However, I have a very strict criteria...
Mostly being that my SHaBBies are ViNtaGe,
 and if they're not, they need to have acquired a
N*A*T*U*R*A*L*Y Aged PaTiNa, which
Yields a One-Of-A-Kind
ViNtaGe F*I*N*D...




Does this Dealer know how to pack or what!!!
Over-Flowing Truck & Trailer...



With Fall just around the corner,
my eye is drawn "some" darker colors with hints of rust...
LoVEd this cabinet ~ but the price point was too high...
It sold early-on, as I saw it going out the gate on my way to the van...




I LoVe Chandelier B*L*I*N*G 
Hanging OUTSIDE at the Flea...
and Kathy Most Certainly has it!*!*!




Cottage Decor
Shabby-Painted Seating with Floral Cushions...
With a cool over-cast day, and Fall clicking at our heels, I'm
not sure if this dealer sold these or not...  In California those
would have been gone in a heart-beat!!!








This "Deer Head" 
**Almost went home with me**




FaB Patina on the Metal Scoop/Dish...








Great Form... & AwEsoMe Look
"Over-Rules" what I call a **Fake SHaBBy**
My guess is that they probably SOLD Right Away...




Double-WashTubs 
Abounded this weekend
and they were ALL flying out the door!!!




 YES - I am Shopped-Out!!!!!!!!!!
AND ~ With this UpComing SaTUrDaY's
  ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! S*A*L*E - Aug. 17th
Here At Our Home in Historic Cedarburg, Wisconsin,
I better get on the stick and start
tackling my newly acquired ViNtaGe S*T*A*S*H
