More Horton's & Stuff....

 Saturday's sunset. It was a nice day, and I did go back to Horton's for a good look around.
 I love how the setting sun shines in the pines out front.
 I  bought these things at Horton's. Some lavender for sachets. Two note books that could fit into a purse. One for me and one for my daughter Karen. We both were looking for a piece of paper to write something on , just recently. I also picked up the  junk girl  sign to remember the meeting with Kris of Junk Chic Cottage.
 I also bought an old map of Paris (replica). I liked the little details .
 Last but not least, I bought another potted petunia. I deadheaded it and gave it some miracle grow . I put it in the container  where I had greenery already growing .
 These are picture at Horton's. I liked the silk flowers in this old vintage umbrella. I thought it looked cute hanging along side  the gentleman hat .
 There was a theme of bicycles , at the French Market.
 I wanted to look under this table cloth at the table and never got to it.  Love these chairs with wreaths on the back.
Many sweet signs in the store.
 I like the shade of pink on this sign.
  This was Donna Jenkin's (Tinkerhouse Company) booth. It was outside.  She lost a lot of her things due to the storm and heavy rain late Friday afternoon.  On Saturday she was using a borrowed tent and set up a new . She's a trooper.
 This little patio table is sweet. I wish I had looked at the picture in the background.
  I laugh every time I see this big old kitchen range. It is used in displays. Looks is great shape, to be so old.
 Is this clever or what? Old bike rims mounted on the pallet fence. I think this could be cute on an outside building even. An old shed or barn.
 A bicycle covered in lace. Totally a girl thing. Priced at  $249.  I think this would be sweet in a garden area of white or pastel flowers.
   Another closing of a fun Horton's market ...but you can always go to Horton's and find things for your decorating needs. The next event will be the Fall Market, on September 23rd. Write this on your calendars.
   I truly enjoyed meeting Kris and seeing Donna again. I did not get to see Cindy , Bee Lady of Hilltop Farm. But I know she went on Friday and was there when the rains blew came.  It was a good weekend for me.  I am kind of resting from last weeks excitement.
  Wishing all a great day. XO

  1. If I lived near you, I'd be at Horton's all the time. Such a cool place. I'll bet you can find anything you want and even things you didn't know you wanted there.

    1. Kathy, I make myself not buy many things that I can not use in décor or life in general. You know that old, "I want it" desire. LOL. I will put the sign where I can enjoy it and make some sachets with the lavender. I already gave my daughter a pad for her pocketbook. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

    1. Carol, I love shopping little shop that are now big stores names. It helps small towns keep some businesses. I love the family that owns Horton's . Hope you are not being flooded there. So much heavy rain here. I am hoping it all dries quickly to keep the mosquitoes from breeding. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

  8. I love when you write about Hortons. And you always find the best things. I'm a sucker for notepads and anything that makes me feel organized. I adore the signs, too. You'd love the store I just found in a nearby town here in Michigan.

    Love that sunset shot. Your posts are always a pleasure to find!

    1. Blondie, Just recently Karen and I were looking for a scrap of paper in her car to write a name on and I ended up with it at the bottom of a receipt. So I thought we needed those little pads. I loved looking in the shops at New Buffalo Michigan. Lots of them. You know I love sunsets and getting a good picture in summer is hard as it's thru the trees. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

    1. Thank you Judy. I have another great weekend coming up. My granddaughter is coming for a baby shower . It's going to be such fun. Seems the great grands are the new babies for us. Where did the time go ? Is your daughter heart strong? I always want my girls to be strong. Some times we never know how very strong we are, till we have to prove it. Blessings to you and yours, xoxo, Susie

  12. Susie, usually I don't find lots of things I like at vintage shops, but I love everything at Horton's. I so wish I could go in there and browse around. That "junk girl" sign was meant just for you. I love the "be strong and take heart" sign and "vintage soul." That patio table is so cute also.

    I can't wait to see all the Fall stuff, my favorite season of all.

    love, ~Sheri
