Hope you are all fabulous! Don and I got back from a trip to Maine last night. My first time there and it won't be my last. Kennybunk is gorgeous, as are other parts. We went to some Museums, lots of Antique Shops and a couple of Flea Markets. I thought this was interesting. In Maine, they don't use carts for flea marketing like we do. I had so many funny looks and comments. (Although it may have been the tie dyed dress now that I'm thinking about it, hmmm) One man saw me and said, "I hope this is not what the future holds for us". LOL, but I just smiled, strolled along and didn't have to carry a thing. I'll bet I started a trend and people are shopping for their own carts this week;) The people are very friendly in Maine. We met so many and can't wait to go back.
Just look at all of the great treasures she has. Love the green table.
This white dresser was great.
Love the ladders.
It was such a fun place to look around and shop in. I bought some vintage quilt squares from JoAnne to sew some pillows for Maisonstgermain.com. Wait until you see them! So if your are ever in Maine, Stop by her adorable little shop at 1755 US Route 1, Wells, Me. 04090 and have a look around. You won't be dissapointed:)
Now one more photo, you will not believe.
LOOK AT THIS HOME!!!! And I wish I could have gotten a picture of the garage. We pulled over to the side of the road to take a very quick photo of it. (I wonder if they would have let me have a look inside:) Kidding! It had more details than anything I have ever seen. Totally amazing. And the name of this piece of art: THE WEDDING CAKE HOUSE!!!!!!!!!
