Coastal Charm Interiors Is Born

You gals were really on track with what my BIG NEWS was...so many of y'all said that you thought that I was getting back into the antiques business and you are all so right! I have been praying about this for months and I feel that now is the perfect time to jump back into what I really love. I have been out of the business since 2005 and for a few years I really didn't miss it, but things have changed and this ole gal is so ready to get things rolling! Speaking about things rolling...as you read this I am in Canton, Texas on a buying trip...I might be a tad bit old, but I'm not slow when it comes to buying for my business...oh it's sooooo much FUN!!! If anybody out there is going to be at the Canton Trade Days this week, please e-mail me...I would love to meet up with some of my blogging buddies! I have been checking out several shops, but at this time I have not decided where I will be...still have a few more to check on. Location is so very important and I want to make sure that I land at the right place for me. I have some wonderful plans for what I want my look to be and what type of merchandise that I will carry. Mr.CC has his shopping list...hand truck...u-haul and muscles all ready to help me on this buying trip...I tell you...this hubs is a real trooper!!! I know he must be saying to himself...why didn't you make this decision before we went to the Nashville flea market and all those thrift stores on our recent vacation...now honey...that would have been too easy...you know what I mean? Here today, I'm going to share a fun flea market/antique mall...it's called PRATTVILLE PICKERS...maybe you have heard of it before over at THE LETTERED COTTAGE...it's in Layla's neck of the woods. It was a great place to shop for some real good deals and here is a couple of the ones that I came home with. Better go and get some sleep, because we have a nine hour drive and you all know that I'm going to SHOP TILL I DROP!!!
                                     I'm so happy that you
                                     came by for a visit,
                                                Linda

                             Found this glass water bottle from
                             the 50's...just had to have it since
                             Mr.CC has so many fond memories
                             of using one of these at his aunt's
                                                house.

                                 I knew it would make a
                                 charming addition to our
                                              nest!!!

                                  Do any of y'all remember
                                           these bottles?

                                Another find was this old market
                                crate that I have displayed my
                                        thrifty little tote in!

                         If you are ever in the area...it's
                               so worth the visit!!!
                         Silly me...I guess you need to
                         where it's  located...that would
                                 be Prattville, AL.     

                      Maybe I will be able to find a few of these
                            cuties in Canton...wish me luck!!!

                                 I will also be looking for a ton of
                                    old crates like the ones here!

                                    My little one cup Fire King
                                    measuring cup...the black
                                    writing is what I loved about
                                                    it!!!

                              Now I would buy this beauty
                                  if the price was right!!

                         Oh my...I should have purchased all
                                            of them!!!
Please be sure to join in on all the FUN going on over at NIFTY THRIFTY TUESDAY...ckick here and join right in!
