I am a lucky girl! I get to travel to some of the best fleas and antique shows in the Country. This month I made the trek to Denver Colorado to hang out and sign mags at
Old Glory Antiques Fair produced by Holly Kuhn. It is an amazing show with some of the best vendors in the Midwest.
Bagpipes announced the opening of the gates and attendees were excited to let the shopping begin!
My friend and magazine associate
Cammie Metheny was kind enough to let me play in her booth putting on some of the final touches. I do miss my junk retail days!
Traveling with a carry on bag sorta limits my purchases until I figured I could have Cammie ship a few things back to me. Like this afghan below. (I have a new found passion for all things crocheted.)
I can't decide what I what I enjoyed more, the cupcake truck, live music, Saturday luncheon with
Jo Packham and guests, friendly vendors and staff...it was all marvelous!
One thing I do know is we all love Junk at Old Glory! Can't wait to visit again!
Cheers,

Dear Ki-
ReplyDeleteMy dream job would be to go to flea markets all over the US, take photos and then do a write up and have my expences paid for!! Who cares about getting paid! I love Junk Bonanza and it's all because of your hard work behind the scenes. Have a great summer!xoxox-cindy craine
Ki,
ReplyDeleteI've waited my entire adult life to see the crocheted afghan you pictured in this post. My grandmother made one and I can picture it on her red sofa. I don't know whatever happened to it and no one in my family remembers it like I do. I was extremely close to my grandmother and so it means so much to even see one like it. My heart is happy. Thanks for your post.
