Marburger Or Bust

So while most of you are snoozing tomorrow am, Mr. Sweet Pea and I will begin the long journey from Florida to Texas where we will set up for our second show at Marburger Farms. This is but one of the shows during Round Top Week and it should be interesting. What with the economy in the tank, gas shortages, and the active hurricane season we are a bit nervous about the trip. But like all true antiquers and junkers, it'll take more than that to hold us back. We can't wait to get there and see all our buds--Theresa Cano of Garden Antiques Vintage, Craig and Teresa (Cooter Brown) Smith of Time Worn Interiors, and Peg and John from French Vanilla. Oh and I can't forget Lauri and Lulu of Chippy's! We''ll also be attending some great parties like Leftover's where Mary Emmerling will be signing her new book, and the Junk Gypsy Prom and the book signing for Magnolia Pearl's new book. Sound like fun? Stay tuned for lots of pics when I return! Until then, keep junkin'!

Blessings,
Shelley

Thank You Ladies!

A quick thanks to everyone who came to the second Sweet Pea Home Sale on Saturday! It's wonderful to have a loyal group of friends who continue to support me and my passion. I will be holding a "winter" (what a joke in FL!) sale near the end of October so please keep your eyes open for the date.

AND WOOHOO it's almost time to go back to Texas!!!!!! Mr. Sweet Pea and I had a blast in the spring and met so many new and dear friends! Can't wait to see them! We have moved from H7 to H14 so if you are coming to the Marburger Farms show please be sure to stop by and say "Howdy"! That's Texas talk!

Hugs,

Shelley
