i have made lots of promises lately...
to blog more...
to go to yoga on a regular basis...
to cook my family dinner every.nite.of.the week.........
to share more of my projects with all of you....
but to be perfectly honest, and for some strange reason i feel like i can with all of you....
i have failed miserably at many of these....
life has been uber-busy....
kids back to school.....
church commitments.....
and my work with the Junk Bonanza ....
no excuses.... but i am calling for a time-out....for just a week.....
Junk Bonanza, a midwest antiques show and flea market hosted by the multi-talented Ki Nassauer {editor of Flea Market Style magazine} begins next Thursday! In addition to styling a table-top with items shopped for exclusively at a local thrift shop, I happen to write the Junk Bonanza blog. The blog highlights the talented vendors and, in the last couple weeks some latte-lovin', Anthro obsessed, French wanna-be, blogging friends who plan to travel to Minnesota to shop at the Bonanza.
And you know that when bloggers get together, there must be a party. I am planning a get-together for bloggers and Junk Bonanza vendors and shoppers at a local coffee house {which just so happens to serve adult beverages in the evenings, thank you very much}. If you are interested in coming, please leave a comment so I can get you the details. I promise a few surprise 'special' guests, perhaps some giveaways and definitely lots of fun!
Please, please, please stop by and see me at the Junk Bonanza - when I am not shopping, I will be hanging around my table top and would love to meet you!
Be back next week with lots of pictures......promise!
