Winner + Flea Market

The CSN Giveaway has ended, and the winner is KRISTEN! Kristen, I've emailed you and Jocelyn from CSN Stores and your gift certificate will be emailed to you soon. I hope you enjoy it!

Now here are some pictures from the flea market with Paige (a.k.a. Peege)!


It was literally the PERFECT day. I love when the clouds look like this...and it was a nice neutral day where we could wear a sweater and not be hot. Ahhh perfection. 


The milk glass was a bit too pricey for my taste, so I skipped on that. We enjoyed talking to the vendor though, he was a nice guy. I bought a nice glass decanter from him, and Paige bought several things. Oh and that blue trunk in the second picture, I bought it! I put a lot of stuff in it when I got home (books, pillows, etc.) and then I accidentally locked it. Luckily I don't need any of the things I put in there for now.

The jewelry vendor had a bizarre amount of jewelry. I don't know how I feel about the presentation of it all...I certainly didn't dig through it while standing in the tiny aisles of the flea market! How do you guys feel about that kind of display? Would you stop to dig through? (side note: the lady was quite snippy and unpleasant)



We also came away with Carrie, which we plan to add to the scary movies we're going to watch in October. So far I've watched House on Haunted Hill (the old on) and Poltergeist. Paige picked up that cricket holder at the same booth as the milk glass. It's a really neat find! She's going to use it as decor in her room...she's crazy about things like that.

Overall, it was a great day! I spent the amount I planned to spend, and got a nice day out of the house, which is ALWAYS nice.
