Flea Marketing with Ki



Many years ago, before I knew Ki Nassauer, I had daydreamed about being able to take her flea marketing at my favorite flea, Canton First Monday Trades Days. I even sent her an email and suggested that she come see our wonderful flea. I never in my life imagined that I would actually get the opportunity, not only once but twice. This is what it's like to spend the day and flea with the Guru herself.

First she wakes up early and gets to work on magazine stuff. Above she is sitting on my back deck reviewing some stories, waiting for me to get around.

On our way to Canton, we stopped at church sale and found the perfect crown, she is the Queen!!!!


The strangest things catch her eyeThat chair IS really cool

And we both loved this old pink metal vintage kitchen-it was sold


It wasn't long before my hands and cart were full, and I recruited Ki to pull the cart. She's handy to have around;)

We met up with some old friends. Wanda has known Ki for years and I regularly buy from Wanda

My friend Liz was there and saw us before we saw her.
See my full cart!!!! We re-packed at least once.
Our trip to Canton was quick, we had to be at Winnie & Tulula's by 4 and were only able to hit a few key vendors. But did well with our purchases. What did Ki get? Can't tell you just yet!!!

Tune in later this week for some highlights from our Visits at Winnie & Tulula's

Looks like you had alot of fun. Canton is THE BOMB! I live about an hour from there. You can find fabulous stuff if you are willing to spend the day and wheel & deal!

It was the perfect weekend for canton! Can't wait to see what you both bought!

Oh my gosh! Is that Wanda Jonas?! I know it has to be, right? I knew they sold in Texas but never would have guessed that you would know her. I graduated from high school with one of her daughters! Small world...
