Christies Outdoor Antique Show

Last Sat. my friend Ruth and I went to The Christies Antique Show in Dundas Ontario which is about one hour from where we live. The show happens twice a year and it is fabulous! The venue is a beautiful conservation area and they have about 300 vendors from all over Canada. I always find great stuff to use in my work and since I am usually looking for small items I can cart everything around easily although this trip I found some great architectual pieces to use as bases and they were quite heavy so I had to make a trip back to the car. At the very end of the day we ended up at a booth with great furniture and great prices. I bought a cornor table, something I had never seen before but I knew it would work in my living room. Then I caught sight of a great green cupboard that I wanted for my kitchen. It has five shelves and tons of room for storage. It took some negotiating to settle on a price and to work out a delivery plan but my cupboard is being delivered today and I am so excited! I have posted some pictures of the show, and my cupboard. Sadly the next show won't happen until next spring but that will give me plenty of time to dream about another fabulous find!

first blog

This is my very first entry and I am excited to enter the world of bloggers! So many people have told me I should get a blog but I just never found the time to do it but now here I am. You can find out a little bit about me in the About Me section. I am presently working on Halloween items for the two stores I sell to in Toronto. This weekend I am attending the largest outdoor antique show that we have in my area. I am going with my friend Ruth and we always have such a blast! I will post pictures of the event and also pics of my Halloween items next week. Here's to a great weekend.
