JUNK HEAVEN

OK FRIENDS, I'M NOT DONE WITH MY TAXES BUT I FIGURE I TAKE A BREAK AND POST SOME PICTURES OF THE JUNK HEAVEN THAT IS ROUNDTOP TX. I STOPPED ATTENDING THIS SHOW FOR ABOUT 2 SEASONS OUT OF DISAPPOINTMENT ABOUT THE FACT THAT I COULD NOT AFFORD TO BUY FOR RESALE. THIS YEAR THOUGH AFTER READING ABOUT SO MANY BLOGGERS THAT LIVE IN OTHER STATES WISHING THEY LIVE CLOSER AND DREAMING ABOUT THE DAY THEY CAN MAKE THE TRIP I DECIDED THAT I HAVE BEEN TAKING FOR GRANTED THE BIG GIFT THAT IT IS TO LIVE IN TX WITH ALL THE SHOWS AND GREAT PEOPLE. I THINK THAT IF YOU ARE IN THE ANTIQUES BUSINESS TX CAN EASILY BE CONSIDER MECCA FOR DEALERS. THEY SAY TEXANS BRAG A LOT, I THINK IT IS NOT BRAGGING, WE REALLY LIVE IN AN AMAZING PLACE. 

IMAGINE TOWNS FULL AND FLOODED WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE ITEMS YOU HAVE EVER SEEN. THEN IMAGINE ALL THE DEALERS, ARTISTS, CRAFTERS AND FAMOUS JUNKERS ALL THERE TO PLEASED AND GREET YOU.

I'M NOT GOING TO MENTION THE FOOD BECAUSE THAT IS ANOTHER STORY. COME HUNGRY, THEY WILL FEED YOU GOOD!

I SPEND TWO DAYS IN THE FIELS AND SHOWS IN ROUNDTOP AND WARRENTON ONLY. TO COVER AL THE SHOWS AND TOWNS YOU WILL HAVE TO STAY THERE FOR  THE WHOLE 2 WEEKS.

EVERYBODY WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A WELL KNOWN DESIGNER WAS HAPPY TO LET YOU TAKE PICTURES. I LOVE THE RESPONSE OF ANOTHER DESIGNER WHEN I ASKED FOR HER PERMISSION TO TAKE PICTURES OF HER BOOTH. SHE SAID TO GO AHEAD VERY GLADLY AND TOLD ME SHE DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PICTURES SINCE NOBODY IS ORIGINAL, IT ALL HAVE BEEN DONE. I AGREED WITH HER.

THIS GUYS CAN REALLY  MERCHANDISE.

I FAIL TO WRITE DOWN NAMES SO JUST KNOW THAT IF I TOOK A PICTURE OF YOUR VIGNETTES I CONSIDERED YOU THE BEST OF THE BEST.

THESE LAST 2 PICTURES I BELIEVED BELONG TO THERESA CANO'S BOOTH. DO YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN?

I GOT MORE PICTURES FOR PINK SATURDAY AND A LOT OF WHITE FOR THE NEXT WW. UNTIL THEN CHICKIES, BLESSINGS, MARTA.
