“Extra! Extra! Read all about it!”

This weekend, Jeannie and I are sharing a large booth space over in Coleman. I’ve had a lot of fun decorating it! 
We have 4 divided sections within our spacious 20 x 20 area.
Two of our booths are decorated into a posh antique setting that includes a classy lighted world globe, a beautiful collection of cobalt blue glass and even a precious bejeweled box. 
Then there’s a fun in the sun beach space with splashes of bright colors, such as a cheerfully painted red outdoor lounger, a wooden croquet game and a handy dandy TV dinner tray set! 
In our fourth stall we have a farmhouse -cottage style, cozy nook. Inside it there’s a hand crocheted floral afghan, a shapely antique chest of drawers and some adorable 1960’s Cocker Spaniel, chalk-ware bookends. 
If you love junking then you don’t want to miss out on this event, with two large buildings filled to the brim with vendors selling their wares, of antique and vintage items, as well as boutique booths carrying unique clothing items and handmade specialties, you’re sure to find some special treasures to add into your own personal collection!
So come on by and join us (this weekend) at Petticoats on the Prairie!

Our posh antique but warmly welcoming space!

A feast for my eyes! One of the other vendor’s booths that I just couldn’t resist having a look around!

    What an experience! Thankful I had you to share it with ❤️
    I’ve especially treasured our road trips…sharing our stories, laughing and crying.

      Awww 🥰 Jeannie, thank you, that’s a very glad “Pollyanna” (a favorite childhood movie of mine) way of looking at it! Minus all of the hard work and sleepless nights, there were some real highlight moments! As you say, our times together on the drives and also our deluxe Mac and cheese lunches and of course lunch with Elvis at the Owl, those were all really brilliant pauses from the busyness! 😃 Much love, Kimberley

      😃 Thank you Sue! Yes, Graham’s little nickname for me has really taken root!
      The treasure chest was a sweet treasure indeed, handmade and filled with Jeannie’s family memories.
      It found a new owner, who really loved it!
