I would love to have one of these....this one is a little too big for me. I did see a couple smaller ones.
There were 100 vender's according to the brochure. With all the people there...it was hard to see everything. So many ideas...pillows and totes made from all kinds of old linens. Love those.
Prices were high, medium and my price range...cheap.... Love these colors together.
This tablescape is a giveaway. I did put my name in. Ki, Matthew Mead and a few others each did a place setting from the local thrift store. It is lovely and maybe I'll win...drawing is on the last day...Sunday.
These darling purses are made from vintage books...She will custom make one for you with your favorite book. The price seemed fair...and most under 30.00.
This is what I came home with. I think it was $10.00 or less... BINGO cards were everywhere and priced 50 cents and up...I went for the 50 cent ones. It was very fun and SO much to see...We were there 3 1/2 hours...didn't stay for the "blogging party"...did see Ki and Matthew there along with someone from the blogging magazine. Not enough time to stay for that. Ki is very tiny!!!
Shirl from Shirl's Rose Cottage send me 3 types of hollyhock seed and this sweet little girl tag. I so Appreciate that Shirl... and I will think of you when they come up next year. THANK YOU!!
What a blessing and how very kind of you.
Just wanted to show you some of the Junk Bonanza because I know you wanted to see it. Didn't take a lot of photos...too crowded.
Have a great weekend...
Warmly,
Deb :)

WOW!! Those purses made out of books are so neat...m....
It's the next best thing to being there, thanks for taking the pictures. Looks like you had a great time:) Great gift from your friend! Have a blessed day:)
Forget the mall, that's the kind of place I like to go. I've made totes and teddy bears before out of the vintage linens. Pillows would be a lot easier, maybe I'll try that. Do you do something with the bingo cards (that is, besides play bingo)?
Looks like you had a wonderful time! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Love those black cat cards--this is my favorite time of year mainly because everywhere you look are (1) the word "BOO" and (2) black cats. Favorite because I have a wonderful black cat named Boo!!! What do YOU do with the bingo cards, BTW?
Looks like GREAT fun! I'm glad you found some treasures and met some friends! ENJOY!
Wish I coulda gone! My kinda place.
The Junk Bonanza looks like fun, Deb. Hope you have a great weekend!
Wow, I think I would have been totally overwhelmed! So much to see, and buy! I'm a big cheapo, so I would have been searching out the bargains! Looks like you had a great time!
Have a great weekend!

I just had to tell you, my word verification was VASES! Maybe that means you will have vases of Hollyhocks :):):):)
Lovely shopping & finds.
Can you tell me what the fascination of these bingo cards is?
Have a lovely weekend. TTFN ~Marydon
I love the Junk Bonanza. How fun would that be. You found some awesome goodies. I love the purses, what a unique idea.
Hi Deb, thank you so much for stopping by. Looks like a great place to shop! You really got some great finds, what fun it must have been. Your so welcome on the seeds and tag. The "Blue Love in a Mist" are not Hollyhocks, just pretty flowers that I thought you would like and are very easy to grow! I'm so glad that you like the little tag. I loved Amy's comment, how sweet!
Bless you, Shirl
