Welcome to the Springfield Extravaganza (don't be scared...he's stuffed)!
I heard someone say he was for sale...only $4,000.00 - I didn't see him later in the show - so either someone paid up - or he escaped to the woods he came from...!
Again...some funny/scary sights as we drove in...but no time to shop...we had to get our booth set up and it was gonna be a long night...
Well, set up kept us busy till about midnight (we borrowed a floodlight from one of our neighbors so we could finish)...so we were ready bright and early on Friday morning for the early shoppers!
Here's Terri doing some last minute re-arranging (we do a lot of that!) - and I'm off taking a few pictures... And, here come the shoppers!!
Here's more views of our space...
A close up of one of our chairs we embellished with antique lace, buttons and fabric... and a cute folding table.
Typewriters are always a favorite!
And, look who I met - my blogging friend, Sue Sullivan of Sullivan & Murphy. We were friends at first sight. I also had the pleasure of meeting her hubby - Murphy. What a great junking team they make - he's so patient (taking pictures for both of us...and waiting while Sue shopped), and a bargain hunter as well...gotta love it!
***
Sue, it was so much fun finally meeting you - can't wait for our first junking adventure!
OK -back to the booth - we unpacked box after box (we didn't think it would end...did we really buy ALL this stuff??)...and had fun merchandising till we dropped (almost literally)!!!
Two of Terri's vintage hand mirrors - bejeweled to perfection!
Here are some of Terri's necklaces - made from vintage and new components - what a beautiful mix!
A few more...
And of course some costume jewelry. My daughter was "downsizing" her collection - probably to add more... Like mother like daughter! :)
Here's a print we bought at a garage sale or somewhere - we loved her (and named her "Rosa"), but had to embellish "just a bit" to give her some dimension - and a little more style! We added a necklace, some "fluff" to her hat, lace and buttons around her collar, and beads and bling to her belt as well.
A close up - isn't she beautiful??
Some little "pretties" - a paperweight that I filled with mother-of-pearl buttons and a pink pincushion (behind you can see Rosa's belt with the lace and buttons we added).
Terri's button bracelets and lots of girlie stuff!
A cute wire stand, hummingbird needlepoint and a button bouquet...
Here are some lamps that needed a "shade re-do".
I used vintage lace, trim, buttons and crystals. 
Isn't the base beautiful?
Here's a small one that had a great crystal base to start with - I took care of the shade! 
This one just wanted a little lace on the shade - simple style.
(I love the color of the base)
Some flow blue dishes (I think Sue bought some of these!)
A scale, holding one of our wire cloches...
Another view...
A great chlid's wardrobe and a header that was made with some old tin, glass knobs, and some new (old looking) coat hooks.
We had a few pieces of furniture that we knew we didn't want to take back home with us, so we added the sign "deal of the day", and actually sold quite a few pieces that way - everybody loves the "deal of the day"!! (Marketing...)
And, when things slowed down, we decided to have a bite of lunch (which is a sure-fire way to make sure lots of customers show up!! - And, it worked!)
This table held lots of hardware, knobs, metal, and dishware... we sold almost all of it!
A meat slicer and his friend, the coffee pot (wearing one of my favorite hats)
My window message board (see my post on JUNKMARKET Style:
And, here's the lucky new owner, our friend - Ellen! 
Our diner dishes were a big hit - 4 for $10.00!!
Another view...
An old metal table top - what a fun way to hang up some reminders...or some vintage magazine advertisements.
These advertisements were fun - we used old jewelry, knobs, keys, etc. and attached to magnets...
Hey Mabel...
A large clay pot was spray painted with chalkboard paint and advertised/held the small clay pots...
Another typewriter and wire cloche (see my post on JUNKMARKET Style - From Garden Fence to Cloche) and lots of silver platters and bowls...
Don't ya just love an old typewriter??
Here's a close up of the cloche (we sold all but one! Woo hoo - making more for the next show!)
These clothespins were definitely our friend over the course of the weekend - hanging signs, holding tablecloths in place, etc... See the next picture for their most important job of the weekend!
The sun was baking us until...clothespins to the rescue....! (and a bedspread that I bought - and the use of the side of our neighbor's van) - ta-da - instant cabana for us!
Taking a break for a photo op! (Terri and I - two very happy vendors!!!)
Here are some of our collages - the first one is Terri's - lots of little cubbies with lots of little treasures!
I named this one "New York...New York"!
This one has a little bit of this and that - all old and worn, but very nice all together!
Here's a garden-inspired collage (Terri went home with this one - she traded me for one of her necklaces - what are friends for, right???)
Here are my traveling buddies - Robin, Melanie (her first time...we broke her in), Carol and of course, Terri!
OK - I couldn't stand myself...had to "create" a photo op... "i junk" for one of my good junking friends in Minnesota - Amy of Whisperwood Cottage and Junkologie...!
OK - finally done shopping for the day, Ellen (in the hat) and Company (Diane and Minda) - Ellen can shop like no one else - so these girls are worn out - and those smiles are because they're glad to finally be able to sit!! :) 
And - last, but not least - we were selling AND recruiting for new members at JUNKMARKET Style - hoping for lots of new visitors and members for our site!
