Golightly's Gallery & Lone Star Antiques

Today I visited Golightly's Gallery & Antiques and Lone Star Antiques. Now I'm not Olan Mills! I asked the girls at Golightly's if it was OK if I took pics for my blog. I told them it was free advertising! My one and only follower is my daughter...the reason I started blogging! And come to think of it...I don't think she's even a follower!

The girls at Golightly's told me a little history about someone who used to have a booth there who blogged. I said I bet it is Dream in Cream because that was one of my favorite blogs. So they told me of the two rooms that Dream in Cream had while she was at Golightly's and how creative she was in painting the walls! The one I love is this one...

Is that not adorable! The pics below are at Golightly's. Their website is http://golightlysantiquesandtearoom.blogspot.com/. I didn't take pics at Lone Star Antiques. It is a huge place and I was on a mission to find Dream in Cream's booth. You'll know her booth when you find it! She had some really cute things! It's called Flea. Both places have Tea Rooms so I plan to go back on a Saturday when they're open!

Round Top, Texas

My first Junkin' Journey began in Round Top, March 26, 2009. That's when I got hooked! Amy and I spent most of our time in Warrenton looking for bargins. I have never seen so much stuff in my whole life! Miles and miles...rows upon rows...tents upon tents of "stuff."

That's were we meet real BLOGGERS! It was so strange to actually meet people you've read about in reality! Theresa at Garden Antiques Vintage had given good tips on survival while junkin'. I met Talking Trash and learned of her new baby Bella, and Deb from Deb Did It.

I've never seen so much "stuff" in my life! Miles and miles...tents upon tents! I call that HEAVEN! Link of map: http://www.antiqueweekend.com/AWshowmap.htm

Remember...I am a Vintage Mom and just recently bought a digital camera! So this blogging stuff is new to me! I've had to depend on my daughters to send pics for me to post on my blog! How sad is that! But...no more!!! I have my own camera! I didn't have my camera on this trip, but wait 'til the next time!
