I am sharing a HUGE booth again this year with Anne & Julie from Tattered Tiques in Barrington, IL! 

Ok, girls...GOOD LUCK! Hope to you see you at the Sale this weekend! And if they are still calling for a little rain, don't let that scare you away. The barn is BIG and most vendors are inside. Along with the Bakery, which has the cupcakes. That is the most important part, right?? {wink...}

late to the party...Nada Barn Sale pics!




Ok, I am coming WAY late to the party showing my photos from the Nada Barn sale! I have seen so many wonderful photos on other blogs highlighting the sale, and well...I just didn't feel right not giving a shout out to the girls I shared my space with and to the always gracious Anne Marie for sharing her beautiful beautiful farm with us!

I should have posted these photos a week ago, but literally within minutes of running in the door after the sale was over I had to jump in the car and make a 12-hour drive to Oklahoma for my nephew's graduation. I am finally home, trying to get back to 'reality' again. 



{sigh...}

Does either setting really need words?

Everything was beautiful front he inside...to the outside. 

This farm girl felt right at home. 


I had the pleasure of sharing a space inside the barn with 4 bloggers that are such great friends! Our space was huge, and PACKED. I think if we added one more thing, no one would have been able to even get in our booth. But it was awesome! I laughed all weekend. I just love these girls. 

Stacey from A Sort of Fairytale
Susan from Maple & Magnolia

I never, ever post photos of myself...{cringe...} I will let you guess which one I am in this photo. Not so anonymous with that shirt on, am I? {hee...hee!}

(a big thank you to Jen Rizzo for this photo!)

Stacey made the cutest pillows...I had to request a custom order for one that says "farmgirl"...



Indeed it was a happy day!!







I am noticing a pattern here...why do my signs always seem to involve food or eating??







Isn't the wagon just calling to be parked under a tree full of flowers?? I cannot believe no one took it home...so I am bringing it to the Kane County Flea this weekend! I hope someone there will give it a loving new home!




My beloved bistro chairs. I loved them so.

But I had to let them go. 

Heavy metal frames. Wood seats. And the BEST old & chippy white paint. 

{sigh...}

I miss them. But I know they went to a good home.




I wish I could have left the booth so I could get more photos of the other vendors and their spaces. It was like a tidal wave of people right at opening, so I had to just snap some quick pics in our space but there were so many other awesome vendors, too!

The next show is in October....so hope to see you there!

Until then...you can find us selling our wares online or through Tattered Tiques in Lake Barrington, IL!

Oh yes, and I will be selling at the Kane County Flea Market this weekend! The weather is going to be AWESOME so hope to see some of you there!

who is coming out to shop Nada???



I have been such an 'absent blogger' lately. 

Busy doesn't even begin to describe how I have been feeling. I went straight from the Kane County Flea two weekends ago to having contractors at my house every day working on the exterior. I will have to get you up to speed on what has been done around here. I am soooo excited with the changes. New roof...soffits, gutters and siding in the peaks above my painted brick.

{sigh...} I love change. 

So anyway...between all of the stuff going on at home and getting things ready for this FABULOUS show...

which is TOMORROW...and SATURDAY, too!

Need info on where to find it?? Check out Anne Marie's site here for the scoop. 


I am really, truly hoping to snap some pics as I am loading the truck later today. I admit, I have good intentions and then it doesn't always happen but I am going to do my best!!

BUT...JUST IN CASE I DON'T GET THEM UP TONIGHT...there are two ways you can follow along and get a sneak peek at our booth and our goods at the show!

You can follow along of my Facebook page here...or Twitter here

I will be posting as we set up! Check in to get a sneak peek at what we have so you can make a mad dash as soon as the gates open! I have a HUGE pile to load tonight...antique chandis, painted signs, cool furniture, white ironstone, old wood cubby drawers...farm finds....just about one of everything you can think of!

Hope to see you there tomorrow!
