LESS THAN A MONTH!

It won't be long until the 4th Annual Bluebird's Vintage Market! We have a great group of dealers...both ones who have exhibited before, and some new ones. Be sure to put the Market on your calender and come out to do your Mother's Day shopping! Don't forget, this year we're "Back in the Barn"

Busy Busy Busy

I'm busy as a bee preparing all the details for Bluebird's Vintage Market this Saturday, May 1st! I was down at the farm today and here's the relaxing country view from the barn where the sale is to be held...

Here's another view of "P" Highway and a neighboring farm...

I'll post the directions again...

Watch for "Bluebird Vintage Market" blue and white signs! Most will have blue mylar star balloons attached.

• 
  
  One mile south of Republic at Rolling Acres Farm
• 
  
  From South Main Street and Rte. 60 drive one mile south (Main turns into State "P" Hwy)
• 
  
  At Farm Road 194 turn left (east); you'll see the Rolling Acres sign on the corner
• 
  
  Take the first right into the farm lot where you'll park, then look for the chicken house and you're there!

See you on Saturday!

T-Minus Two Weeks and Counting!

Getting excited about Bluebird's Vintage Market...just two weeks away. I have a lot of great items and I know the other dealers have been saving up their 'goodies' too. As soon as the barn fills up, we'll put things outdoors :)

Here are some happy shoppers from last year's event being eyed by that unusual bloke from down under...

Directions to the Market:

1 mile south of Republic MO at Rolling Acres Farm. From south Main Street & Route 60 drive 1 mile south (Main St. turns into State Hwy. P). At Farm Road 194 turn left (East) -- you'll see the Rolling Acres sign on the corner. Take the first right into the farm lot and just past the chicken house is the barn with the sale.

Watch for "Bluebird's Vintage Market" signs.

Signs of the Times ~ Bluebird Style

Had loads of fun making this sign today to help direct people to the Vintage Market on May 1st! You'll see it on the corner where you turn off of State Highway "P" and onto West County Line Road. When you see the sign, you're nearly there :)

Also, be sure to check out the link at the bottom of my blog for Relics, a new Antique Mall in Springfield I'll be in with my vintage and antique merchandise ~ it's going to be the largest antique mall in the Show-Me State! There will be a tea room opening later in 2010 so check it out at 2015 West Battlefield in Springfield.

I'm still buying like there's no tomorrow! I have a bunch of really good vintage pieces for the Market and my always-helpful Mom has been busy "doing up" vintage linens. They are clean, crisp, starched, ironed and ready to use.  One of the things I've never understood since I've been a dealer is finding these superb antique linens that people let languish in their linen closet. I say, use 'em!

Pheona's Vintage Market-from Junk to Junque

Here's another great event that I hope to attend this Saturday in Billings. I met Shelly G. who exhibits there earlier this Spring and I adored the beautiful displays she and Gretchen created.

All my dealers are crying for more flyers so I picked up a reprint order today. Here are a few more pics of last year's event to whet your appetite :)
