every girl needs a tiara
Or so Obscure told me a couple of years ago. I am now the proud proprietress of a sparkling tiara. Don't know what I'm going to do with it but the amount was right.
Outdoor events are so at the liberality of the weather. We went to an outdoor antique show/flea store. Just happened to be in one of the buildings when a torrential rain occured - I mean a really big monsoon. Only lasted about 5 minutes but enough that some of the vendors went composed. Managed to get thru the rest of the show without getting wet, tho we obliging of rushed the last couple of aisles. Didn't unequivocally make it to the car before it started raining but not firm till we were on the road and again in just a few minutes it was over. Somehow shower is easier to take at faire than other places - haven't very figured out why.
A couple of things 'got away' yesterday but for the most part it was an enjoyable show. They had a spiritless piccolo with a couple of keys. Looked sort of old, but the head stock was cracked and they still wanted $225. More than I had and I wasn't eager to spend that much. Saw a couple of old piano stools, the ones I could pay were missing parts and the one that looked right cost too much. Don't know why I want one but I do - but it has to have the beast feet with crystal balls. Not the easiest feature to find. Saw a fair number of spinning wheels. Never had wanted one before I found the one at the in laws ill fame that I had to give back to FIL's sister (I know it was the right sentiment to do but...) Haven't decided whether I'm active to spend that much and buy one or not - have to do some research online and see how much a new one goes for. But that is for the tomorrow's, no more flea markets now until September or October - after faire is over, not that they don't have them, we exactly don't go - would rather do Bristol.
Got something rather unusual. Must be from the 50's or ancient 60's. It's a salt and pepper set, but you'd never be familiar with it. It is a music staff complete with clef and...
