Another great trip to Hico, Texas for the bi-annual Antique Show. This is my favorite antique show (just a tad higher than the Paris Street show in Denver)
I really enjoyed my time with my friends Pattie and Stephanie who made the driving trip so much fun. I laughed until my face hurt. I am proud of my Witherspoon Antique Mall “sisters” who had such beautiful booths. They had the greatest booths of all. I meet new friends, Denis and Taylor from Lonestar Antique Mall in Fort Worth, Brenda from the Homestead Store, Dorothy from the Shabby y and many more. And ran into my good buddies Jennifer and her beautiful daughter Shelbie. And as an added bonus…..I met the singer Jewel!
she sat with us while we had tea and cookies. She is so stunningly beautiful and so very sweet and down to earth. (See Denis from Lonestar Antique Mall blog..

My friend Pam’s booth, love all the cream and white colors with the gorgeous Christmas wreath. She is a talented artist with an great eye for collections. |
My friend Georgia’s booth, great collection of everything vintage. She can make beautiful things with anything. I bought the large table…perfect for my new studio! |
I purchased this great typewritter..it is in perfect shape! |
The Shabby Y booth, lots of fun trinkets and whatnots.. |
I am sorry that I did not get a photo of my friends Thoma Lou and Janet’s booths. They were equally as beautiful. Both gals are very talented and have an eye for all things beautiful and antique.
I brought home lots of things treasures. I will be busy creating something out of them.
But the best treasure of the day was spending the wonderful, sunny fall day with my friends….
Oh My goodness! That is pure greatness you got to hang out with Jewel! She was my favorite growing up..Man, I wish we stayed longer sounds like it was a good time. It was so fun to see you and the gang..can’t wait ’til next time!
Cindy,
Just arrived home from our vacation, couldn’t wait to see if you had posted anything and there, you have captured the beauty and delight of the Hico sale. What a glorious day!!!! My trip couldn’t have started out on a happier note. Thanks for the happy memories.

I really had a great time too Stephanie, I can’t wait until the spring sale! Maybe we should find other sales to go to…maybe Roundtop??
Oh my gosh I want to visit Texas just to visit all these booths. They are just fabulous. Love the shabby chic vintage style.
