barn, junk, vintage, antique~sales

First I want to ask, what's the weather like where you are??  Well it is truly abnormal here!  77 in Minnesota yesterday and warm and humid today too!  I am loving it, but........... after hearing about the tornado's in Michigan, well,  maybe the weather should just stick to normal!

Back in Oregon I knew where all the good sales were, occasional sales, barn sales, antique shops, vintage/junk sales.  I even traveled to Washington and Idaho to sell Lollibag's at a couple..








With this nice weather I am just itching to get out and find a good sale!  I just don't know where to start... I know of Junk Bonanza in the fall but I am usually selling Lollibag's at The Creative Connection during that.

So do I have any Minnesotan followers?  If yes, please share good sales..  If not, what is your favorite sale to go to where you are?

    Have you checked out the shops in Zimmerman- Ramshackled Treasures, Les Junc and The Corner Shoppe? Or there's another weekend store in Clear Lake- Weekend Cottage Antiques. I've found some cute things at these places. Would love to hear if there are other shops out there.

    Love the pink truck! :) I just did an interview with Serena from The Farm Chicks about her new venture called My Favorite Find, and this is a resource I think you would like! It launches this Monday, and it is a great online resource for vintage lovers and hunters!

    There are so many great sales and junk shops in MN. Check the Junk Bonanza web site for vendors that are coming and you will find lots of great occasional shops.
