Such a fun time...................shopping on a Saturday with lovely sisters. Not my sisters, unfortunately I was not blessed with any, but my wonderful friend Vanessa at Vanilla Lavender and her beautiful sister Telma who is visiting from their home in Brazil. Little Luna, Vanessa's sweet daughter came along too and, after coffee and chocolate biscuits (Luna ate most, ha! ha!) at my house, we all headed over to SuzAnna's for some serious treasure hunting.
We also met up with Deborah of Pictures, Pots & Pens - she was ready for a break after a week of taking care of her adorable grandsons!
Hard to believe lovely Telma had just arrived in the USA - her first visit - at 11 PM the previous night and the sisters had been up chatting until 2 AM!
As always, lots of fabulous stuff at this wonderful shop. Owners Susie and Jenny, along with their helpers Linda and Gail, have been busy redecorating, color co-ordinating, organizing, you name it.....................everything looked ready to be snapped up and taken to someone's home.
Isn't it great to have warmer weather to go antiquing?
Do you venture out early on the weekends to hit your neighborhood yard/garage sales?
Do you ever take off on an antiquing road trip with your girl (or boy) friends?
I think during this shift in the economy, buying second hand makes so much sense.
Happy hunting.
Happy hunting.

I am always on the look out for second hand things. I say if it has lasted this long it has to be well made!!!

ReplyDeleteHi Mary:
ReplyDeleteI don't go to yard sales, but at sometime in the year, they have miles of yard sales on Route 30 and some of it is very near us. They have town yard sales also. I keep saying I am going to go but never do.
It is great that you went shopping with bloggers and also visitors from Brazil.

What fun! I used to do that but our antique shops have realised the potential and are now way too expensive.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary! I really enjoy every visit you make to SuzAnna's. I always spot things that I would snap up in a minute!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a wonderful visit with your friends.
Have a great day! Chris
What enchanting Sisters + little one! And oh, such a fantastic place to browse, dream and make a purchase! The candle holders with crystals certainly caught my eye!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful girls that radiate love! Great shots - love the sign "We buy junk and see antiques" That's my philosophy about shopping - I buy junk and see it as antiques!
ReplyDeleteAs always you get the best pictures!! It was so nice seeing you all on Saturday!! Hope you have a wonderful week!!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to get to be face-friends with those that we meet in blogland. :o)
