Kayla’s First Antique Fair

From Kayla:

I’m so glad that my mom blogs so I can keep up on all of her awesome auction finds. I wish I could get home more often to actually visit auctions with her! Awhile ago we made plans for me to sell a few of her things at an antique fair in our area, but I backed out. I am just too busy with too many projects right now! Then my friend Liz, who makes purses and leather cuffs, asked if she could sell some of my things at the show so she could fill a booth.

I can’t stay the weekend to be at the sale but I had a fun time setting up this morning.

The “Born in a Barn” event and adjacent antique show is very popular in my area and Mom would have loved it. At least I get to see her for Palm Sunday and Easter!

That green book, The Diamond In the Window by Jane Langton, is a GREAT book!! Although upside down in this shot. I love looking at old books. I’m sure this antique fair was lots of fun.
