Getting Ready for The Market on Chapel Hill

It's almost time for The Market on Chapel Hill at The Waters in Pike Road, Alabama.  Are you planning to go?  It's October 3 and starts at 9:00 ---- but be there early to get a great spot in line!  
I've been getting things ready for the sale.  I'm excited to be a vendor this year.  Here are some of the things I've been working on and getting ready for this year's vintage market event.

I hope these library drawers find an exciting home!  The Geer table has a beautiful enamel top in almost perfect condition and will be nice addition to someone's kitchen. The table reminds me of the one that my great-aunt had in her kitchen.  The cooking that went on in that kitchen was AMAZING! And, I'll have several metal signs----all new (old stock).  I washed off the layer of dust that was on them from years of sitting around at my local hardware store.

 I hope someone will like this chippy stool and the scruffy bench. And who doesn't love an old galvanized bucket??  I'm not too proud to say that I love galvanized buckets.......what about you??

I will have these four shutters at The Market and this table, too!  

Looking forward to October 3!

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. 

                                     
     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

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?
