How I Spent My Summer Vacation

     I'm trying to remember if I ever had to write a report with this title when I went back to school....Did you ever write a report with that title? Well, if I was going to write the report, I would mention the fun I have had this summer getting ready for a special day.
Mark your calendars for October 3.  That's the day of the wonderful sale at The Market on Chapel Hill.  It all takes place at The Waters in Pike Road, Alabama. 


Come join me at "The Market on Chapel Hill"
                                     
     This is going to be the third year for this vintage market and it promises to be even better THIS year! There are so many wonderful and talented vendors/bloggers and I'm honored to be included in this group.
  
I've attended the two previous Chapel Markets (new name: The Market on Chapel Hill) and here's a post I wrote about my first trip here.

     So, would you like to see some of the things I'm collecting to take to this year's fabulous event??  


I've found cameras.

I love this blue and green combo--
the McCoy pottery caught my eye.
I like this industrial look--do you?


I haven't fished in years, but I love minnow buckets.  
The graphics on these old beauties caught my eye at the same sale.

Gotta love a tool caddy.

Ironstone and other pottery pieces. 

Beautiful linens.

Cute little Shiny Brites.

Old scales.


I was late attending this sale and it was super hot in the tool shed on this particular afternoon.  For some reason, I squatted down to look and see if there was anything in the corner and this is what I saw.  Do you see it?
I'll bet you see if for sure in this picture....

Yes.  An enamel-topped table!
It took me awhile to get it out of it's hiding place,
 but my efforts yielded a wonderful Geer table!

I'll bring this lovely set of spice jars to this year's event.

And I hope this 1950's quilt ends up on the top of a little girl's bed.  
I can see it --so cute and sweet. 

I hope to see you at The Market on Chapel Hill. You can keep up with the details on FACEBOOK: The Market on Chapel Hill

 My booth is named CREEKSIDE.

A beautiful summer day--waiting for an estate sale to begin. 
That's how I spent my summer vacation.  

If you're planning to attend the sale--
what treasure do you hope to take home?
