Honestly I don’t really know what that means.

Outside I still see lots of snow.

But the sun is out today!

So excited spring time brings flowers.

And we get a little more light everyday.

And it also brings the Vintage Market

Do you see that sweet apron?

Handmade by someone.

I just found it while out junking.

For now it adorns my mannequin.

And I added a little vintage bling too!

I plan on wearing this sweet little number at the Vintage Market

  2. Love your apron, it is the cutest thing. Wish I was in your area, the market sounds like fun. Hugs, Marty

  3. What a really great apron. I wish I could visit that market- xo Diana

  4. What a perfect and pretty apron to be wearing at your upcoming market Anne.
    I hope that Spring arrives early for you, so you can once again be out in the sun. March 1st signalled the first day of Autumn for us here in the southern hemisphere. I’m sure many in Australia will welcome the cooler season after one of our hottest summers in decades.

    • Thank you Kerryanne! We had a pretty hot summer last year and felt just as you all do.But now after the cold and gloomy weather I am looking forward to sun and heat.I am sure by the end of summer I will be longing for those cool fall nights!
      Have a wonderful weekend!

  5. I did not know that March 1 was the first day of spring. Your barkcloth apron is so delightful. I love it!! Sure wish I lived close enough to come to the vintage market. Many years ago we lived in Wheaton, but I don’t think that show was around then. :-(

    • I know I just learned that myself yesterday when I was listening to Tom Skilling.Being that you were from this area you would remember him I am sure.Oh that is a beautiful area but a bit far from us now.I think this may be her 3 or 4th year not sure.I wish you lived closer too!Have a great weekend Mary Alice!
