Two Vendors ready to sell
Here is Robin and I ready to sell our goods at the Vintage Barn Antique Sale today. Robin had a variety of goods and I had mostly old linens. We shared a booth space...thus I did not take as much stuff to sell. Of course, I made less money than I did at the last sale too, but that was okay. I did not have much left to bring home...so this is good!

Book Signing
Here MaryJane signs my Outpost book at her grand opening of the new store. She will sell lots of vintage goods, organic sheets, towels, and chocolates. Fun store!
Farm Girls Gather
A few of us locals gathered to have some tea in the Coeur d' Alene Resort Lounge (I guess it is) before heading on over to see the new MaryJane Farmgirl Store, which is in the CdA Resort Mall. We had a fun visit albeit somewhat brief.
My Crown
The Apron Queen Crown is above the heads of shoppers, with other hats and accessories on a wood shelf that went all around the store.
Farmgirl Chat
Here is a shot of MaryJane with her daughter, Meg, and her right hand girl, Carol (with bow in her hair). They must be chatting about how the grand opening is going.
Bedding
The use of galvanized wash tubs, laundry baskets, milk cans, and more made the store feel very famry, indeed. It gave the feel of being in a farm house, especially with the wood floors.
Table Cloths & Lunch Pails
The patterns on these table cloths were bright and cheery and looked like they came from grandmas cupboard. The lunch pails/boxes would hold a lunch for two or one farmgirl's lunch with her embroidery project thrown in.
Apron Center
This cupboard held a variety of handmade aprons. The colors used were truly vintage like. The styles were delectable.

Shopping friends
This is my friend, Karen, and her mother, Lynn shopping at MaryJanes new store. I will post more another day. I am tired from moving stuff around today...will also post pics of this later.
Flour sacks and more
This wood rack held the cutest fabric envelopes of flour sacks and tea towels. The colors were bright and crisp. Very nice.
Potholder envelopes
These fabric envelopes held vintage looking crocheted potholders...they looking amazingly as if they had come from grandma's kitchen 40 years ago.
Gated headboard
An old metal gate fits perfectly on a twin sized bed as a headboard. This bed sat in one of the windows in the store.
Candles and sewing
Isn't this little sewing machine a great one? Behind it sits a table loaded with the bestest smellin' candles I have ever smelt! The apple was amazingly real.
MJ, Me, & Meg
MaryJane, on left, was wearing an antique wedding dress...it was very pretty. I am next and I don't usually have such a cleavage showing...this shirt does this on me, so I am going to add a piece of lace across there! Then there was Megan, with her belly sticking out...what a cute pregnant farmgirl!
