That's right cowgirls, I'm packin' my Stetson and my sunscreen and headin' to the land of Bluebonnets and deep fried turkey legs! I'll be in Texas before midnight tonight, for 5 days of junkin' at Marburger in Round Top, Zapp Hall & Antique Weekend in Warrenton, some of the best (and rumor has it...wildest!) antiques shows in the whole U.S. of A.

An even bigger thrill for me is finally getting to meet Sue of Vintage Rescue Squad and Deb of Talking Trash. These gals top my list of Best-Friends-I-Have-Not-Yet-Met. You can bet there's going to be some serious cacklin' and gossipin' going on until the wee hours of the morning! Yippie-yi-yo-ki-yay!

Big News and a Favor...

Hello to all of my Trashy Pals...
After years of attending junk sales and antiques shows, both as a buyer and a vendor, I am taking a big, but logical, step.

I'm thrilled to announce my collaboration with Maria Raleigh of Collage in creating the Plucky Maidens Junk Fest. Our first Fest will be held this summer at McMenamins Edgefield in beautiful Troutdale, Oregon. (Just about 20 minutes east of Portland.) The date is Thursday, August 18th from 1PM-dusk. All of the restaurants and pubs on the property will be open for our shoppers and there will be live music starting at 6 to play us into the twilight. Just leave a comment for me here if you would like more information about being a vendor at this fabulous new show!

Thanks,
