Adventures Of The Picker Sisters Part 6

A few weekends ago, I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with two of the sweetest gals you'd ever want to meet...Susan ("Evelyn & Rose") and Karen ("A Shabby Moment In Time"). It was a marathon day of pickin and junkin at three of the BEST markets, shops and shows in the North Shore area.

First stop was Todd Farm Flea Market in Rowley, MA. Open every Sunday from early spring to late fall....the farm fields are home to an eclectic group of vendors with something for every junk lover's heart.

~Susan, Me and Karen~

DO you think I took pictures of the fields or vendors wares? Non.  

I guess it's because I go there all the time... but here are a few of my "finds"....

...do stay tuned for a later Post where I'll show you what I did with each of these tresors

(I think you can guess it involves paint!)

Next stop was The White Elephant Outlet in scenic Essex.....a picturesque seaside town.

The outlet is open on weekends only and everything is ALWAYS 50% off!

~"Moi" and Susan~

...sweet Karen....

Found these vintage crochet spools there as well as some other tresors that you can read more about in THIS Post. 

And here's what else was there for the pickin....

Next stop was Pettengell Farm in Salisbury for their annual Vintage Bazaar.... 

Here's where we lost dear Susan ( well, we didn't really "lose" her.... she just had to leave the party to join her family for some precious family time).

"Held on a picturesque flower Farm, The Vintage Bazaar is an upscale outdoor market featuring antiques, architectural salvage, vintage jewelry & clothing, original art and unique artisan crafts. 

Vendors travel from all across New England to display their vintage finds and handcrafted items."

Sweet white tents dotted the fields and beckoned us in....

and this sweet glamper was home to one of the vendors for the week-end. How cute!

I had the pleasure of meeting dear Colleen Bloom from 

The Vintage Room. 

She commented on my blouse and the next thing you know....we realized that she stalks follows my humble blog!!

Her booth was simply stunning, as you will see for yourself in the next few pictures.........

You can see more of her style on her new blog:

"The Vintage Room NY" 

Stop in and tell her PML sent you! 

Here's what else was there for the pickin....

And here's what came home with me....

...remember that sneak peek I gave you of this chippy column?

Well here it is in my studio... 

...love it (and "as is")!

And who can forget my previous post about THIS steal-of-the-day....

...my TEN dollar mirror!

Jeanne D'arc and French-inspired lovelies were everywhere....

It was while purchasing THIS heavenly bust of Ste. Therese that I met another delightful gal who stalks follows my blog....

...her name is Claire and her booth was equally-stunning as Colleen's but, alas, my camera called it quits just before. 

"Bonjour" Claire...please say "hello" when you get the chance! ;)

All in all, I would have to say that it was just about the loveliest day I've spent in a long time thanks to my Picker Sisters.... Susan & Karen and all the delightful gals we met along the way! 

(Not to mention the delightful finds that came home with us!)

Until next time....
