Sunny Skies in Grayslake


Wide awake at 3:00 a.m.  That can mean only one thing...I'm supposed to hurry up and thank all of my wonderful buyers that shopped Grayslake this weekend.  The weather was perfect and everyone was in a great mood, ready to freshen their decor or add to their collections.  Popular categories included Easter, Schnibbles & Bits, Textiles & Industrial.

Across the aisle from me, Lisa, (The Frenchman's Wife), had a beautifully curated booth.

Next to me, Barbara & Karen(?) had the most charming peacock chair, among other things.
 Other photos that I took during set-up didn't turn out at all.  Please visit my friends at ChiPPy!-SHaBBy!, Altered Ever After, and Rhubarb Reign where I'm sure you'll soon find complete reports on the show. 

***My heart goes out to all of those affected by the severe weather across the Midwest yesterday - I sincerely hope that none of you were in the areas hardest hit......

    I am glad you had a great sale. I never run into vintage Easter but maybe I do not know what to look for!

    Sounds like you had a great sale! This is definitely the time of year for bad storms. Let's hope that there are not any more as devastating as the one that hit Iowa.
