Friday's Favorites - on Second Shout Out . . .

As a contributing blogger to Second Shout Out . . . I have been posting a weekly "Friday's Favorites" post for the last few months . . . along with some other amazing bloggers from France, England, Connecticut, Oregon, and Seattle!!   I am having an absolute blast over there - and am soooooo excited for their launch in May!!!  I absolutely can't wait!!

Here is an example below of this week's post . . .

( at the bottom of this post I have links to all the others )

Friday's Favorites # 8 . . . ( April 20th - 2012 ) 

As I said before . . . the Texas Shows were amazing!!  From sun to sun down we walked the fields, tents and barns looking for treasures!!  As my very first evening came to a close in Round Top - Texas . . . I pulled into this lovely shop just as the sun was beginning to set. 

It looked and felt like Texas to me . . . an old rustic building with a big front porch - like something you would see in an old Western movie.

Yet here it was . . . softened up with a bit of European charm and refined touches . . . filled to the brim with old-world textiles . . . linen clothing . . . and beautiful furniture!!

As I touched the textiles and soaked in the last bit of warmth on my face - I was thinking to myself . . . this truly is the most perfect way to end a most perfect day in Texas . . .

. . . lights twinkling on the porch, the sun setting on the horizon . . . and surrounded with beautiful antiques and vintage goods . . . yes - I do think I am falling for Texas!!

It was such a delight to meet Anna Bugardi - the owner of all this goodness!! She was very kind . . . and made me feel at home at the end of a very long day.  Thank you again Anna - I will most definitely be back to see you again!! 

Hope you will join me again next week on Second Shout Out . . . for the rest of my Texas round-up!!:)

Stop the cab . . . JOAN'S on THIRD!!

funny story . . . 

went to LA for a little business on Monday . . .

arrived a day early on Sunday with my best friend Maresa

to have some fun in the Sun!!

On the schedule was a little vintage shopping . . .

first stop an Outdoor Vintage Market called

Melrose Trading Post

I was so excited to enjoy a little vintage shopping in the sunshine . . . and I was looking forward to sharing it all with you!!

Unfortunately - it started to rain . . . and rain . . . and rain . . .

and before we even walked through the entrance of the market 

it was starting to shut down.

By the time we walked several blocks and found a cab - we were not only drenched as if we had just had a shower with our clothes on . . . but we were starving!!!

We asked the driver to keep driving until we saw a place to eat . . .

Then I saw this . . .

JOAN'S on THIRD!!!

and yelled this . . . Stop the Cab!!

 

My friend Pam Robinson from Red Ticking has talked about this place for years . . .

so I just knew this was where we needed to be . . .

and sure enough it was!!

It was pure Heaven . . . a food lover's paradise!!

If you love good food and are ever in LA - you have to put this on your list . . .

You will LOVE it!!!

once we had something to eat . . . and had a big bag of food to go . . . we ventured back out and did a little shopping.

. . . . . . .

I will be in Texas next . . .

crossing my fingers for glorious weather . . .

oh - and great vintage!!!

(I will be stocking up the On-line store very soon!!!)

Have a great week everyone!!

Perfect timing . . .

loved this documentary on Tom Ford . . .

it is time to figure out what you LOVE in life . . .

". . . feel rather than think . . ."

I completely agree with Tom on so much of what he has to say . . .

and for me it was truly perfect timing!!

Happy weekend everyone - love to all of you!!

a new direction . . .

This past January I decided not to do another local show here on Bainbridge Island.  
I was then talked out of that decision by a few close friends and customers. :)


I decided to do one last Spring Market -  my last local show here on Bainbridge Island . . .
not because I do not LOVE doing the shows for our customers, vendors, friends, and community . . .
and not because I do not wish to grow it . . .
but - because I do not wish to facilitate it any longer . . .
as it is taking much more of my time than I had originally thought. 

(this photo was taken last year at our 2011 Seabold Vintage Spring Market)

Quite honestly - I need this time back for my family . . . my sweet husband . . .
my growing kids . . . my sense of home . . . and for myself . . .
including other dreams I have . . .
which have been sitting on the sidelines patiently waiting for me . . .

It is now time to let go . . .
and free up some time for a few new opportunities . . .

I still plan to go to several quality shows each year . . . 

I will be at the "Remnants of the Past" show in early June . . . and "Barn House" in late July.

I have always wanted to be part of Judy's wonderful show in California . . .
and I absolutely LOVE Joe and Jermonne's Barn House Market - as it is truly one of my favorites!!

And yes . . . . I will continue selling my vintage goods on my On-line store . . .
as well as on "Second Shout Out" in the near future . . .

I have talked with several people who may want to do a similar show under a different name . . .
here on the Island or in the surrounding area.
I am completely supportive of them and their decision to do so . . .

and I will let you all know when those shows will be!

On one level - I am very sad about all of this . . .

yet on another level - I know that it is the right thing for myself and my family.

and to be quite honest - I am a bit giddy about it all!!! :)

A Big heart felt "Thank You" to all of you . . .

for all of your support . . . smiles . . . and laughter at our shows over the years!!

It has been so special on so many levels . . . and the memories will be with me always . . .

Love and blessings to each of you!!

xoxo - liz

Finders Keepers . . . :)

lets have a little fun!!

here are the items for the . . .

Finders Keepers Game

Spring Flea 2012

all these finders keepers objects are just waiting to be found!!

The finders Keepers game is fun and easy . . .

• review the blog before each market to see what items are in the game . . . (sometimes I do this the night before or the morning of the market!)

• find the item in one of the vendor's booths . . .

• it will say "Found" on the tag and will not have a price . . .

• bring it to the cashier at the main entrance . . . we will verify it, take your picture for an upcoming blog post on all the winners . . .

• and then the best part . . . you get to keep it!!!! :)

Have Fun and Good Luck!!

I love this game . . . hope you do too!!!

See you all soon!!
