Friday Link Ups, Feature, and I am off to PARIS!!

The Paris Flea Market that is.  I am about one paint brush short of a melt down at this point.  The anticipation of doing something completely new, putting yourself out there on a limb....exciting, but also nerve wracking.  I have been painting like a madwoman and this weekend I put my little space together.  If you live in the Bay Area, I sure hope you will come check it out!  The "Flea" as they call it has an almost fanatical following of women, so come early to get the best stuff.  

September  8th (starting in the evening)-11th

Paris Flea Market in Livermore

Here is just little glimpse of some of my "junk".  I will have plenty to show next week, once it is all staged!

Yes, it is that time.....a little Halloween, if you can believe it!

Now, enough about moi, let's talk about the fabulous link ups!  Here are the highlights of last week's party:

I would love a spot like this in my backyard, a good book , a cold glass of  Diet Pepsi (my drug of choice, ahhhhh, just don't tell my kids where I am and it would be perfect). 

Thanks for sharing! Cedar Hill Ranch

Next, have a seat, or maybe you don't want to cover up this lovely art created by Penny at

Flea Market Makeovers

I love chairs so much, in fact I have two that look like these, what a fantastic idea!  Penny is always so creative, be sure to visit to see what other inspiration she has shared.

I am getting in the mood for Halloween, starting to see some really fun ideas.  This is completely out of the box, and I love it.  They have a complete tutorial on their blog too of how to make this Spider Nightstand.  

Sisters of The Wild West

Because I am so taken with Chalk paint and have been using it on anything and everything in the last few weeks, I had to include this beautiful chalk paint feature from
