EVERYTHING Has Been A Little Dry Lately. Craigslist, Thriftstores...Even The Goings On At The Antique Malls, But Finally A Little Life Giving Rain Falls At The Flea Market! Salterini, Salem Biscayne And A Danish Modern Valet. Status: Available (Salterini Already Gone!).

It's been ages seems like since I've had such a nice haul from any of the local flea markets.  Belleville has shone me no love, the new St. Louis Swap Meet hasn't quite found it's footing (but is still quite enjoyable!) and I think we've just been getting to Wentzville to late.  But finally, Booty!!!

I Been Tryin' Real Hard To Get A Load Of Smalls Out To Creve Coeur So I Gathered Up A Couple Boxes Full And Dropped Those AND The Grete Jalk Sofa In Booth 307. Took A Quick Look 'Round And Spotted Some Good Stuff In Some Other Booths Too. Status: Available.

I literally looked around for 30 seconds and stumbled across Three really cool items at The Antique Mall of Creve Coeur.  I was in a rush to get to work so I didn't have time to scour the entire mall, so there may be even more / better finds out there.  Thing is, if you like what you see...you better hurry!

Decided To Take A Virtual Shopping Trip To Seattle WA Today. Looking For Some Bargains Up In The Northwest? Sure Ya Are! Status: Not My Turf!

I've only been to Washington state once.  It was beautiful!  We drove through a Giant Sequoia tree!  Really, if you've never been to the giant redwood forests...go.  Make it your Summer Roadtrip Vacation!  Plus, check out the Seattle C-list while you're up there, 'cuz I found some really good stuff just now.  Click through and take a look!

After Three Days Pickin' In The Sticks We Decided To Make A Special Trip To The BIG City And Hang With Some Like Minded Folk. Status: Good Times!

We were hoping to keep enough time open on our little roadtrip vacation to get a chance to meet Dana of Mid2Mod.blogspot.com and her Son-In-Law who operates the shop Mid2Mod.  It was an easy drive from Canton and, well...three days of walking around all day reeks havoc on a body, so having a few hours of lively conversation was a welcome change!

Weekend Roadtrip Craigs-Snatchins! I Spotted The Maurizio Tempestini / Salterini Chairs Late Last Evening And Made Arrangements For Pickup. Drove Out Today And Found Lots Other Good Stuff Along The Way! Status: Score!

Wait, don't that look like some huge alien bug's face?  It's not, I assure you.  It is, in fact, my new acquisition of a super rare pair of Salterini iron and leather Maurizio Tempestini chairs and a fancy spider leg and brass tray occasional table!
