Market Surprises in Chicago

Take my breath away!
So I poo-pooed the Merchandise Mart. Sorry. What a surprise! I turned the corner and look what I found... this FABULOUS vendor with all things French. I had to post a few photos of her items. Enjoy.

Take a look at the pillows. If you look at the floor of the photo you will see these wonderful bamboo mats that have French images screened onto them. She says they'll last forever.

Just looking at these photos makes me want to order more! You can look forward to seeing these in May.

Remember in my pre market post when I mentioned the 90% of stuff I had to get through to get to the good stuff? Let's just say I passed on the blow up yard ornament of a life size John Deer tractor with Santa on top... and the Elvis paraphenalia.... and oh, the wooden toilet seats with deer carvings on the top.

This was a vendor at the Merchandise Mart Trade show for retailers. I'll be selling her items when they arrive in May. Thanks!

Me again..Angie, this is too funny but you carried my soldered charms a couple of years ago. You got them through your friend...her name just slipped my mind...Kelly? last name Salmon? I would be a bit embarrassed to even see those charms now because I was literally just starting that process at that time. My workmanship, I believe, has greatly improved. I've thought of you often though. Crazy world.
