I've made some conclusions about antique shopping:
1) There weren't a lot of style choices in the 60s, 70s & 80s -- otherwise, I wouldn't see so many things my family had.
2) People who sell Miley Cyrus items in their booths don't know the true definition of "antique".
3) You can learn a lot about racism in America from certain booths.
4) It *is* possible to book it through one of these antique malls if you have only certain things on your radar.
And
5) Today I found some new sugar molds that I will be upcycling and listing on Etsy soon. I am *so* excited!

It's My Anniversary, Y'all!
It was a year ago, today, that I launched my very own business. I chose
April Fool's Day because it was a funny and easy way to remember the
leap I was taking into the unknown.
And after a year of craft fairs like the Keller Indianettes Fair and
the Funky Finds Spring Fling, I have met fellow artisans and enjoyable
customers. I have learned a lot, grown creatively and strengthened in
confidence and wit. Believe me, it takes a great deal of all of that to
run your own shop from home. Also, in the last year, my son started
going to school three hours a day, I've created new product lines and
launched on Etsy. And because Etsy was an easy route to take, I changed
my website from an online store to a blog with my Etsy Shop built in.
Many of you have been with me since day one and some of you have been
with me for just a bit. But each of you, by signing up for my
newsletter, contributed to my enthusiasm. Thank you!
So today I am celebrating the ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY of What's My Future
by offering ONE FREE Classy Sass note pad with any order from my Etsy
Shop. These Classy Sass note pads have been my #1 seller because
they're just so dang funny and true. I couldn't think of a better way
to celebrate this day!
**AND** with Mother's Day coming up, I am celebrating being a mom for 5
years to my wonderful, cray kiddo, by taking $5 OFF each of my Paper
Photo Family Tree Collages, between now and Mother's Day!
So, click that Etsy Shop tab above and check it out. :)
