The “Mini” Design Flea is THIS SATURDAY in Houston!  I can’t believe it is THIS SATURDAY..the summer is already flying! I meant to give more information and previews last week but it just didn’t happen so I have lot to tell this week!  I will try to show a preview every day.

We are calling it a “mini” flea because it is at this cool girl’s home in West University Place.  This isn’t a huge thing with food vendors and wristbands, it’s a small-ish “home show”…BUT there will be cool lemondade and some great items. . . not your usual garage sale fare, some good deals but some nicer, pricey items too, but still less than retail. The main thing is it will be a collection of fun stuff and a good mix of price points . . . lamps, rugs, pillows, fabric, old suitcases, a few antiques, chalkboards, Cavallini papers and much more including this awesome example of Marcia Brady finery. . .ha!

That’s right Houstonians, I am proud to annouce i will have a petite Marcia Brady dresser or “server” available for purchase at the Mini Flea..handpainted by moi in the sticky Texas humidity…and yes it is RED inside..can’t you just see white dishes stacked against that vibrant color..love the red surprise (and it wasn’t an easy job my friends..especially with monster mosquitoes biting me while i painted).

{The color is Martha Stewart’s River Mist from her new paint line, it looks much more “icy”in this photo than real life.  It’s really a nice grey blue. I still need to distress a bit and add some fancy brown (shoe polish) wax}

So tell your friends and head down to West U to see all of our treasures, CLICK HERE FOR DIRECTIONS  and NO EARLY BIRDS..we start at NINE, no earlier, please respect this and give us time to prepare..gotta give yours truly time to drive down from the country and make my stuff all purty for y’all!

[ I want to thank everyone for your prayers and condolences regarding the loss of my grandmother.  Your kindness means the world. Love, Holly]
