I had the pleasure of attending the Alameda Antiques Fair this past Sunday. It was the first time in months that I was able to go because of weather or previously scheduled plans. I was stuck taking Bijou but I made up some story in the car ride over about how I went to the flea market all the time when I was pregnant with her and she loved it! This story wasn't exactly true but she bought it and went in with the opinion, "I love the flea market!" I'm totally one for lying to my kid if it makes my life easier and won't traumatize them in any long-term fashion. I also let her listen to my iPod (a treat!) which kept her entertained in the stroller while I shopped around. She wanted to hear this song over and over again.
A set of antlers for the cabin, $10.
A few yards of vintage fabric to make dresses for Bijou, $4.
Old rice sacks, $2. I turned them into new pillow covers for our outdoor pillows.
A blanket stitch closure.
