Farm Chicks was good to me. I never seem to buy big things like pieces of furniture (my house is so full), but gravitate towards littles. These treasures were found at the show and also junking while driving to and from the Farm Chicks.
How could I not buy the cutest little nut cups ever? These squirrels are darling and I love the fringe detail.
I think this is the luckiest I have ever been at Farm Chicks with spun head finds. The little graduation heads are tiny and love the eyelashes. Deer frolicked into my path.
A tiny beaded couple. A super Haeger vase in a great pink color. It is currently on my dining room table full of hydrangeas from my yard.
Lots of littles for crafting. One of my favorite finds. EGADS..this would have made that swoon worthy post I did last week. A crepe paper bride and groom and 3 bridesmaids.
Look at those curls.
A cute little duck candy tin and a pie plate for my collection.
Another crazy find was this #7. It was a grocery aisle sign. My lucky numbers are 7 or 3.
A doll for crafting and a bunch of chenille storks.
A pair of sunflower wall pockets and a Farm Chicks shopping bag.
A swim cap for my collection. This one has little fish frolicking about on it.
Here I am! I am not sure what this mirror was originally from. It has a white enamel back and sides. I have a couple of funky enamel framed mirrors that I will display together someday...I need a couple more. I wear vintage clothes occasionally and could not pass up this sweater. Love the colors and the sprinkling of flowers.
Some fun vintage curtain fabric. Note the darling deer and the rabbit skipping rope.
The last two items are for my "someday beach house". I could not resist this little seafood cocktail set in the original box.
Adorable little shell shaped plates.
This last find is one of my favorites. I was in a booth and saw this box. GIANT INFLATED TOY?
Then I saw this on the side.
The seahorse was inside and neatly folded. I don't think it had ever been used. I bought it and when I got it home I blew it up.
What a fun show and fun finds! Until next year Farm Chicks...
Looks like you had way too much fun!!! Love all the finds, that blow up seahorse is very smile worthy! My eyes went straight to the Pink Vase as I am in love with it!! I collect pink pottery and this one is a beauty. Love it all!

That little wedding party takes the cake for me! So happy all of you found each other. :-) Can't wait to see you in your snazzy sweater; definitely an Ethel vibe to it. Another great year at Farm Chicks!!

I love the bridal party and the squirrels. I'm like you and I love all the small stuff! Thanks for sharing all your fabulous finds! Mary

Awesome finds, as usual. You have been really lucky with the spun head bride and grooms. I really want a pair for my wedding cake & pie table. I've seen mirrors like this one before and people called them bus rear-view mirrors. Or maybe it's a side-view mirror? Either way it's fun!

I think your mom was a good luck charm once again. Your finds are fabulous! I am drooling over the pink vase. Love it. I found the same design in matte white for my sister. Never knew it came in pink. My favorite thing is the seahorse for your someday beach house - so funky and so fun just like you!

I almost got swept out to sea on a red Sandy The Seahorse. My Dad put me on it and then stepped back for my Mom to take a photo and WHAM in came a wave and out went Shara. I don't wear vintage clothes, and I never wear sweaters, but that one is so cute, I might have bought it just for fun.
Car is loaded up (I had to cool down before I got sick) and I am headed out to start my Junk Ranch set up. It's getting bigger and bigger. Big enough that you and Amy and Mom might want to come - someday.

Those seafood dishes are adorable and that swim cap and the blow-up seahorse are meant for your future beach house. Lots of small goodies just waiting to be rescued. How nice that you could enjoy it with your mom too.

I thought that my favorite finds of yours was the crepe paper wedding party. Until I saw the seahorse! That is so perfect and I just know it was waiting for you to find it!
Have a great weekend!

So much goodness that I can't even pick a favorite. Your Magpie radar was spot on!

Seriously...does it get any better than that? I prefer vintage over new any day of the week. So-happy for you. Enjoy your weekend.

I was at Farm Chicks also. Tons of fun and treasures. Your crepe paper wedding party have the exact same faces as my St. Patrick's Day couple. I found them in an antique store in Spokane, the day before Farm Chicks. I put a photo on my tiny blog for you to see them.....
