First Monday, Canton TX

This place ROCKS!

I really can't explain it

It's like a flea market

but really

so much more!

The very first time I went was back in 2000 with my stepmom and stepsisters.

I got these brunch plates and cups.

6 of each.

The plate has a place for the cup to rest.

I totally love these.

I think I got them for like $15.00 -

but wait, there's a story -

isn't there always a story?

 Rule # 1

Be careful when you go with large groups of people.

I paid for them, and I totally FORGOT them.

There were so many people to keep up with and so much to see that I didn't realize until we got home and were putting all of our stuff out to display for each other - that I didn't have my most prized purchase of the day.

Thank goodness we only live 20 miles from Canton - I went back the next morning, and can you believe they still had them - all wrapped up and waiting for me.

That could have easily tainted Canton in my mind forever.

Rule #2

Dress comfortably - where layers &  tennis shoes.

(But do not wear matching t-shirts as seen here.. that is just too silly, ladies! )

Rule #3

Do not forget the cart!

 We typically go to Canton at least 2 to 3 times a year.

A couple of us decided to invest in this cart.

I get to keep it because I live the closest.

I let another friend borrow it recently, and she brought it back with the liner and the cup holder.

Wow!
Can't wait for Spring!
Who's in?

How's it hangin?

...yet another

 ♥

I told you I didn't capture them all.

I keep finding them throughout my house !

I bought 2 of these hangers at First Monday in Canton a couple years ago.

They are to hang robes in my guest room.

Aren't they precious?

Some of my Canton Finds...

Sight Seeing in Canton aka First Monday

There were several groups of women wearing personalized matching t-shirts.

I promise if you ever go with me, I will not make you wear a matching t-shirt.

Large metal grasshopper?

Being Halloween, of course people would be dressed up.

 I love the pink wig.

I think her hair turned pink from being under this flowery pink hair dryer.
