Fabulous Finds at the Lucketts Spring Market

You may think this blonde is crazy, but YES I love a good antique market. I guess that's what happens when you enter your 30's. 

This past weekend was the Lucketts Spring Market - which also happened to fall on my birthday weekend. And I couldn't think of a better way to spend a beautiful Saturday. And NO I didn't receive a vintage blue pick-up as a birthday present. Although driving one like this around to do some antique shopping would be fab. Ha.



If you don't know what Lucketts is...shame on you. You are missing out and I suggest you click on this link immediately, if not sooner. Their annual Spring Market is packed full of antiques, vintage items, refurbished furniture and much more. And I must say that this year's market was the best yet!



(Please excuse my paleness...my legs haven't seen the sun in 7 months!)

My parents and the husbo and I packed into my dad's new pick-up truck were off to the Spring Market on Saturday. The 4 of us shopped until we dropped so thank god we had a pick-up truck with us. Because this is what we bought....

I could have walked out with much much more if my wallet allowed! You can check out more of the great stuff they had at the market on the Lucketts Blog {sigh}.
