"Smalls" For the Fancy Flea

I'm Heading out for the Fancy Flea at noon today 

My Friend Janice will be here with her truck and trailer at 12 noon, then we will load up and be on our way to the Fancy Flea in Lakeland, Florida.   It's about 1 hour south of Orlando.  Janice is bringing tons of vintage garden and kitchen items and her sister in law Stephanie, will be handling ALLLLLL of the money!  So, I have lots of help.

Since we have to be up VERY early Saturday to set up, we decided to spend the night in Lakeland.  We'll check out where our space will be, have a nice dinner, and I'm thinking a glass of wine before getting to bed early!

Here's some of the small items I'm bringing


I made sure you could see the prices.  Sometimes I find myself turning my computer upside down to see if I can read a price tag on a blog..........No secrets in this Closet!




Water slide decal packs, $18.00 for 3 sheets






Just a sampling of what I'm bringing

I can't wait to meet so many of you!

I'm not going to be able to visit blogs for a few days...So don't be posting anything good LOL!...I hate to be out of the loop.

I'll be back in a couple days with details and pictures.

Happy Creating
Carol

Have fun, Carol! I can't wait to hear all about it when you get back! I love your smalls. Sometimes I have more fun looking through the smalls than anything else.

Have a great time and sell out quickly! I think the show would be fun to go to even if nothing sold, but I do hope that it is profitable for you. I would just love LOOKING! There's going to be so much to see!

Shabby chic Sandy said...

Everything looks so fantastic! I really want to get into doing the water slide decals. I love the ones you have printed and would like to order those but was wondering if you are going to be selling the clear sheets to for people to print themselves. When you aren't too busy please let me know. I think I could get pretty obsessed with them:)

Hi Carol!
I just saw a photo of something you had at your booth at Fancy Flea... I've been looking for something just like it. The photo was taken by Kitty Breed and was on her Facebook photos. It was a little white cabinet with little shelves on the side and some French writing on the front. Would you still have this or perhaps another? Please let me know! I have a second home in mount Dora and would love to visit your antique mall space! What mall are you in?
My email is pageoflove@aol.com
My blog is ancientqueendesigns.blogspot.com
Thanks!
Karen
