Road Trippin’ For Treasures

I have been looking all over for a vintage travel trailer. I’m sure some of you dream of a Prevost with granite counter tops and a king size bed, but not me…I’m looking for sometime a little more hip and funky than that. Something that I can make my own little travelin’ gypsy wagon. I can just picture myself settin’ off for parts unknown in search of good ol’ junk, with my happy little home away from home in tow. Here is what I’m talkin’ about…

They call her Buttercup. How cute is that? Pretty darn cute in my opinion!

But this one has a really cool matching truck….

and the Cowgirl Caravan…oh how I aspire to own one just like this…

The log cabin on wheels is truly retrofabulicious (yes, I just made that up)

and then…there is the SPARTAN in all of its shiny glory. It has the coolest curved windows in the front.

and the GLIDER…OMG!!!

Anyway…I’m on a mission. I want to travel to antique shows with all my High Falootin’ Junk and I will need a place to hang my hat and kick off my boots while road trippin’.

Wish me luck on my hunt.

Ready to play Cowboys & Indians {new loot}

Vintage Western Toy Display by High Falootin’ @ the Tavares Antique Mall

Remember the days when kids played outside? I know it is hard for kids these days to image surviving without a computer, video games or a smart phone, but we had fun playing with simple toys that required imagination. So here is my tribute to old school toys and by old, I mean REALLY old school.

Good Luck Junkin’

Oh blogger/designer/crafter superwoman…how do you do it all???

How do all of you blogger/designer/crafter super women do ALL that you do? When do you find the time to do all of your miraculous designs and then have the time to write witty little blogs about it? How do you home school your 3.5 children, all while running a ranch and being a super wife at the same time. You write cookbooks and host parties. You comment on 50 other blogs just like yours every day. You do craft shows and indie fairs. You capture amazing professional photos of everything you do. Do you live in a super world with more hours in it than mine? I’m just saying…Do you have a behind the scene assistant that keeps you on schedule? And do you have Super Man that can keep up with you? I mean really? You ladies have it together and I am glad you share all that you do and give us scatterbrained, unorganized, not getting through our “to do” list women something to strive toward.

Here are some links to the Super Blogger Women that I follow…

Enjoy and be High Falootin’ today!

We have a major announcement…

We will be moving into the Tavares Antique Mall beginning on Jan 18th and will be ready for the Art Around Town Event Jan. 21st @ 5:30. This is a great event and we are very excited to be showing off our booth for the first time at this event.

Come out and see our booth and join us for a really fun event.

Cowboys & Indians

Hand Carved Indian

This is a one of a kind piece. It is a great decorator/collector piece for any western, cabin or rustic ranch style home. He is $125.

He measures 16.5″ tall x 12″ wide x 7″ deep.

just to complete the theme I have a The Outlier by Remington and Remington Collector Plates

Original Paintings for a Country Cottage {OOAK Loot!}

These are original One Of A Kind Paintings Signed YAZ. I did not know the artist personally, but I do know her husband and son. She passed away a couple years ago and left the family with over 300 paintings. I fell in love with her work. It is so peaceful and calming. This is your chance to own original paintings for a very reasonable price.

Gypsyfied Finds {yes it’s a word…at least in my vocab}

I finished a few more of my smaller pieces yesterday…just in time to get MORE good junk to refinish. I picked up some great stuff last night and tomorrow should bring more good loot my way.

Dont Forget to be Shabby Memo Board — "Dont Forget to be Shabby" Memo Board $19

Oodles of Skittle Candle Holders $9-12 each

Thanks for checkin out my loot. There is more to come tomorrow.
