What's it all about?

58 Vintage Faire 

That's 'what it's all about'!
You put your antique in, You put your antique out
You put your antique in, now sand and paint it all about!
 
Go on a Treasure Hunt
Scour Craigslist, Estate Sales or the Garage Sale Market
You know what I mean..."Junk to one, Treasure to another"
Sew, paint, craft, post on CL (& now blog!) for everyday & holidays
Make Sad Antiques Happy
Give New Items that Sense of Age
Find Treasure to Share Their Space 
 
Then what to do with it all?
Find a little shop and rent some space.
Make some walls out of old doors
(The cool kind of 1923 french doors with 12 window panes each)
 Move in tables-n-chairs and cover with collected 'treasure'

Now, wait (and hope)...Did I find 'Treasure'?

Oh, excitement and affirmation, 'Treasure' is selling!
Which means...Gotta Go Getta Go Treasure Hunting again

So here's the chorus for my new venture!
Go on a Treasure Hunt
Scour Craigslist, Estate Sales or the Garage Sale Market
You know what I mean..."Junk to one, Treasure to another"
Sew, paint, craft, post on CL (& now blog!) for everyday & holidays
Make Sad Antiques Happy
Give New Items that Sense of Age
Find Treasure to Share Their Space 
  

If you are in the area (Buckley, Washington)
Stop in at "The Queen's Ransom" on Main Street
It's open 10am-5pm Mon-Sat
Look for my 'Window'd Walls' and take a peek!

Apologies to those who are too far away
But don't feel left out.
Remember, Camera & Pix 'Coming Soon'

How I decided on
58 Vintage Faire
Several names tumbled through my mind
(remember, my notes on flight of ideas a lot in mind) 
 
I wanted a number that was my own 
58...(Born in 1958)

It had to be to the point
Sad Antiques Made Happy
 New Items Given a Sense of Age
 Treasure to Share Their Space 
Vintage...(The Treasure, not just me!)
 
It had to say excitement and fun, like I find at a fair
but I thought the 'Old English' spelling more fitting 
Faire

58 Vintage Faire
 
That's 'what it's all about'!
You put your antique in, You put your antique out
You put your antique in, now sand and paint it all about!
I guess you could say I'm having a perpetual 'Hokey Pokey' Party
 
Thanks for visiting and hope you drop in again...Coreen
