Wellllll, it is a Friday night and while I "listen" to the Ranger vs Yankee's game, thought I would post a lil post!!! Hope to maybe hit a few sales in the morning, and then start decorating for the fall season.......even though it is still a "HOT" one here in Texas!!! I just love decorating for the fall and Halloween season!!

Which brings me to say..........we can't wait to get our booth all ready for fall and Halloween..........plans are already in the works!!!! One little hint of what is in store is...........remember the Alfred Hitchcock movie "The Birds"???? O.K. that is all I am going to say for now!!! That movie DID really scare me though as a little girl!!!! Guess I will go and watch the game now.....Go Rangers........and HAPPY JUNKIN!!! Cathy

Hello friends......Deidra pretty much said it all .......We had a fun, great Canton weekend!!! Here is a Big Shout Out to all of you who paid us a visit and shopped with us!!!

Our friend Jackie from the Porch took several pics of our booth so thought I would share a few! When in Canton, be sure and pay her a visit as she has a very cute booth!

Enjoy, and HAPPY JUNKIN'..........Cathy

Good afternoon fellow bloggers! Well, the rain has stopped for just a moment and as usual, I always have problems with "my wonderful" computer...so let's see if I can get through this blog without any problems...

Had a great weekend show at Canton. Seemed like shoppers were in the shopping mood and already looking for Christmas gifts. We got the pleasure of meeting one of Brenda's friends who makes vest just like hers. Alexa lives in California. It was such a pleasure having her and Brenda down for a couple of days to help us out with their beautiful "vintage look" clothing/vests. We even had TWO BRIDES come in and buy their wedding attire! It was so much fun to see what the girls put together for these ladies. I have a picture of one of the brides. Her name is Sharlene Cloud Bevill. Her and her mom Gayle Cloud had a great time shopping and trying on the vintage clothing. She is going to have a vintage wedding in October. Won't that be beautiful?

We had a great visit with Amber, our hairdresser. Everyone there said she had me looking like Beetlejuice, so we just took a picture. We have so much fun when we are getting our hair done with her. We hung out Friday and Saturday. She took us to an awesome place to eat in Terrell called Dos Aces for Jeri's birthday. Great food, drinks, and company, well except for me having a little meltdown over some crickets.....(we ate on the patio)...yes I have a fear of crickets. We learned alot out there on that patio, we are looking forward to eating there next month. It was also great hanging out with Whitney and Susan from Brassy Blueberries, along with their group of friends. We actually enjoyed our nights instead of just going to the cottage!

Thanks to Billy and Denis for always coming by to see us and check out what we have....

Well it has started to rain again, so I better hurry up and finish...I will try to post pictures now..Hope it works! I am sure Cathy will be on here soon, she has really been busy since we got back. Till' next time......Deidra

Deidra and I are in the "PRE CANTON CRUNCH MODE" and while I seem to be burning the midnight oil, thought I would take a break and make a new blog post!!! Hope all of you had a fun, filled weekend, and if you had the chance to go "junkin", hope you discovered some great treasures!!!

Here are some of our new purses that we will be bringing to Canton! FYI......we do take orders on these and no two are ever just alike! While I design the purses, my mom does all of the sewing! They are made using vintage and newer fabrics and embellished with old lace, trims and a lil bling! They are all lined and have a pocket that will hold your phone, and they come with our original Girls Gone Junkin label! Now for the best part, they range from $ 45.oo to the most expensive being $ 200.00! O.K. girls start working on that Christmas list!!!!!

HAPPY JUNKIN..................cathy

Hope you all are having a great Wednesday!! I have been designing purses, pillows and lamp shades, and my overloaded brain needs a BREAK!! LOL! Soooooo what more to do then hope on facebook and our blog!!! The most exciting news with me for today is ..............I am LOVING this weather!!!! We have had some much needed rain, and it has made for such a cooler day......so nice to be out of the triple digits!!!! It really makes me feel that Fall might actually be around the corner!!! Acording to the merchandise in Hobby Lobby, fall came and went, and Christmas is around the corner!!! Did I miss something in my crazy, busy junkin world?????

I have not taken any new pics of goodies for Canton yet, soooooooooo thought I would post a really vintage picture!! Yesterday, was my wedding anniversary, and we celebrated 37 years!!! And NO, I did not get married in Jr. High...He he he!!! I did marry my high school sweetie though!!! Looking back, that is a LONGGGGGGG time!! Like everyone else, we have had some "bumps" in the road, but over all, it has been a fun ride!!!!

Guess that can be your "nostalgic" news for the day............Happy Junkin!!

Happy Monday to all of our "junkin" peeps!!! Well, school started today, and I am sure all of you momma's out there that have lil ones are filling alot of "mixed" emotions today!!!! I say enjoy your "me" time and do things that you enjoy, and then when the lil ones get home put your "MOMMY" hat on and give them lot's of hugs and love and do for them!!!

One great thing about school starting, is that we KNOW that fall is just around the corner and then comes the Holidays........one of my favorite times of year! With that also comes "SHOPPING"!!! Sooooooooooooo, gather up your shopping, junkin, peeps and plan a trip to Canton! I promise you will find not only great shopping, but also great food and just plain ole FUN!!!! We will also be in the Hico Homestead Show again this fall which is another great and fun get away!!! The dates are Fri. Oct. 15th and Sat. Oct. 16th, and talk about GREAT VENDORS, you won't be disappointed!!! And if you have never been to the Homestead Store, all I can say is WOW and over the top awesome!!!

Deidra and I Love the shabby, vintage look and that is what we have always centered our "Look" around! However, we also love the "gypsy" fun, funky stuff and try to work that in with some of our guitars! Soooooo here is just a lil peek at what I am talkin about! Enjoy! And.........just in case you are wonderin, we also take orders and it does make for a fun, funky and unique Christmas present!!!!! HAPPY DAY and always HAPPY JUNKIN!!!

CATHY AND DEIDRA

Hope you are all having a "FUN FRIDAY"!! I was up early and out the door in hopes of finding a few "undiscovered treasures", and I did!!! Stopped at an Estate Sale first, and then continued down the junkin path to one of my favorite 2nd hand stores! By this time though it was starting to warm up, so I headed to Mickey D's for one of those cold mocha frappee drinks, picked up some dry cleaning and headed home!!! And by the way, if you have not tried one of those drinks, they are darn good!!
Now I am trying to decide what to do next on my list! Do I price and pack all the goodies that are spread out all over my dining room table? Get started working on something creative for Canton? Make my bed, or just crawl back in it and take a lil "kitty cat" nap????? I know which one I would like to do, but I will just have to make ya'll wonder!!! Meow.............anyway, hope you enjoy your weekend, and find lot's of treasures if you hit the junkin trail!!!!!
Happy Trails to ya, and Happy Junkin!!! Cathy
