Vintage Markets

No idea what I'm doing with these

Yesterday was gorgeous. Windy, clouds moving across the sky, in the low 70's to start, just a beautiful fall day. To take the edge of their energy, I started at the dog park and let Frick and Frack run around for 45 minutes. Then we got back in the car and headed to Advance, IN. I know, few people have heard of it. A tiny, very old town on Route 75 heading north. I didn't know this until a few days ago, but the first Saturday of spring, summer and fall months is an open Vintage market. They set up in a parking lot behind a downtown building which contains Boone County Uniques. This is a combination antique, junk type store. Well, junk to some people. Treasures to others, and now I am kicking myself because I didn't buy the rusty scissors they had on display.

One of the vendors outdoors, Black Barn Vintage, had a bin of old rusty pieces. 2 bucks each. A woman was standing there, sorting through the spigot handles. I asked what she was making, and she said a garden sign. She was choosing pieces that resembled flowers. So I let her go first. I just wanted a variety, because when I looked into that box, I saw Seth Apter's work in my mind's eye.

An interesting market that suddenly had a variety of dealers because of Facebook. Lots of customers. I plan on returning next spring. This was the last set up for the season.

By the way, the blue in the background? My finished kitchen table. No, I have yet to do the chairs. Yeah, I know.....
