Fleattitude for Junking Fun

 Saturday was a lucky day for me ... I got to go to Fleattitude, run by friends Jenn and Cathie.  What an awesome sale ... and the venue is hard to beat.  Its held at the historic rec center in Pleasant Grove ...

 Here are just a few peeks at all the fun that was to be had along with my flea.o.logy business partner Nell, as we strolled through the vast vintage goodness that is Fleattitude.

 There are some really great ideas for stacking in the vintage merchandise.

 Of course a lot of these great dealers will also come to Payson and sell at our biggest flea.o.logy of the year on August 30th.

 There was pretty much something for everyone ... and my money and I were soon parted, as I gathered up more and more goodies along my stroll.

 I thought these cameo cookies were to pretty to eat, but wouldn't they be charming stacked on the pink cake stand to the left?

 I fell in love with these arrows cut from old painted wood ...

 The man is a genius, his wife said he has stacks and stacks of old painted boards ... you can see him here with one of several tables he made from the reclaimed lumber ... he sold every single table he brought, not bad eh?

 I loved Vickie's display of hankies, I thought hanging them close like this, made them look like one of those rag banners that are becoming so popular ... such a charming idea!!

 ... and yes, I saved the best for last ... this is my friends from Two Pitts of a Pear, Brandon and Tonya ...

I loved the small chaise made from two chairs ... these people are upcycling geniuses.

 ... and after all, isn't that just what we all are? Junk junkies?  I confess, it definitely applies to my junk loving ways.  Thanks for coming along on this junking journey!

Flea Market Booths That Will Make You Drool.

 Let the flea season begin .... I am in heaven, last Saturday I got my introduction to 2014 junking at one of my favorite flea markets, Fleattitude, held at a wonderful historic building in Pleasant Grove ... to start is Jenn's booth, one of  Fleattitude's talented founders!

 Next in line is the booth hosted by Reclaimologist and Other Crafty Chick founder, Shannon ... Adore this banner!!

Then onto my favorite booths anywhere, Two Pits of a Pear .... and guess what?  They are headed to Farm Chicks in June!  They are amazing, I almost wish I wasn't going to Canton's First Monday Trade Days the first of June so I could go see their amazing booth, well, almost .... after all Canton is, well, First Monday Trade Days, the oldest continuous flea market in the United States, after all.

Then a couple more pictures back in Jenn's booth again.

 Of course, talented Christine of Vintage Yardsale Utah was there ... she's planning a women's retreat, please take note of her button on my side bar .... so much talents and so many wonderful projects!!

 Funny story, I put together pyrex bowl sets to sell at Treasures .... saw this stack, but noticed the $12 on the top bowl ... too much when you are putting together a set, but loved how the three equal sized bowls looked together ....

I later saw the happy new owner of the set, and told her I had thought of  buying them myself ... that's when she said she'd had to buy all three, but didn't really want the red one.  When I asked why she'd had to buy all three she said they were priced as a set at, $12 .... really?   Oops ... but at least I am the proud new owner of the red bowl.  :-)

 Another happy purchase was these tall cupboard doors from a historic bungalow ... can you say 'love at first site' ... I bought a set of 11 .... now what to do with them.  They are five feet tall and 18 inches wide.

 Met this couple in the parking lot on the way out ... the pyrex bowl full of antlers just made me laugh ... weren't they good sports to let a stranger snap their picture?  I thought so too, such camaraderie in junking!

Speaking of which, thanks to my cute friend Wendy for coming along to make the junking all that much more fun!!  She is such a doll!! Thanks friend!

The Vintage Whites Market Comes to Salt Lake Again!!

 What an amazing day Wendy and I had on Saturday.  Ever so much fun, and we both managed to empty our  pockets while loading up bags of treasures.... at the second annual Vintage Whites Market at the State Fair Park in Salt Lake City!

Don't you love the umbrellas in the entry?  Me too, Jenn of 3 Dotters Vintage Rentals put it together.  She is a genius when it comes to combining vintage goodness!

 As we turned to the left to start our vintage trek around the awesome historic building, we immediately ran into our friend Cathy's booth, but alas no Cathie.

 

 Next was Jenn's booth, and she even had a minute for a quick picture with Wendy and me.

Say Cheese!

 Then we headed up stairs ... loved these two pieces done by the same artistic vendor. 

 ... and we ran into these darling and talented sisters who sell at Treasures with me, Annette and Vicki!

 Loved this booth by the Perfect Pallet. How cute is the triple chair bench below?

This awesome ampersand was made by Shannon, one of the leaders of the FB Reclaimologist group I belong to on Face Book.

 Above is a shot of the main floor from the staircase ... so many people plus so many goodies just added up to so much energy and great memories.

Here I am with my load for the car ... underneath the cool bed shelf is a full set of printer's type, and it was super heavy!!  My purse is also crammed, and there's a bags of goodies hanging from the back of the dolly!  The cute round suitcase was Wendy's purchase from everyone's favorite flea.o.logy dealer, Vickie!

As we were headed out for the last time, I saw this cute girl keeping an eye on the goods her mom had bought, I asked for a picture, mentioning my blog as an excuse, and she said, "Sure, that's OK, my mom blogs too!"  That just made me laugh!

We finished our perfect day with lunch at Cafe Rio, and an hour of catching up!  How is it that friends always multiply the fun?  Thanks for an amazing day Wendy!
