I've been wanting to post this for a week ~ so dog gone I'm gonna do it now!
Last Sunday July 17th I went to Maxwell Street Days in Cedarburg WI
It was soooo Hot & Humid which was a bummer ~ a lot of the vendors didn't show or a lot of them were packing up by noon. I didn't take many pictures just to hot!
This vendor that had a little bit of everything!
I love old crates!
This was just too funny!
Some of the goodies I got ~ some old tins, buttons, wooden thread spools, flower frog, choppers, spoons, an old box with dividers, and an old glove box.
My favorite find ~ an old glove box from the 1920's ~ isn't it beautiful?
Even the inside of the cover is engraved ~ now I have to find a pretty pair of gloves to put in it.
After we were done at the flea market we walked downtown ~ wish I would of got more pictures.
Next time!
There are a lot of old building / paper mills that have unique shops in them.
You can't go downtown without stopping at the candy shop!
Sorry bad picture ~ Just to sunny out!
Any who ~ both of their display windows are full of different flavored caramel apples at $7.00 a pop!
Yum! They are sooooo good!
We also stopped at another shop that was just filled to the rim with merchandise for all the holidays/seasons!
I should of taken a picture ~ forgot.
But I did buy this:
Danger Mosquitoes sign!
I put the sign above my door that goes out to my backyard, the mosquitoes are soooo bad this year ~ you almost need a blood transfusion if you stay out there to long!
This coming weekend my sister Sandy, my niece Niki and I are going road tripping in our travels we are headed to Tomah to some primitive shops and hopefully to WI Rapids to a shop called Country Freckles.
I'll make sure I take my camera and take more pictures!
I have a lot of blogs to catch up on and some projects I have to complete before I call it a night.
I hope everyone has a wonderful week!
Happy crafting, traveling, treasure hunting or whatever you may be doing!
Until next time
Prim Blessings!

You really got some great treasures! I have always loved Wisconsin. We used to live in Iron Mountain (MI) & our big "thrill" was coming down to shop & explore in Wisconsin : ) I'm with Karen ... love those crates! That popcorn tin you got is wonderful! Wish I could've been there : ) Blessings, Shirlee

Hi Robin~
Wish I knew you were going. I would have met you there. I usually go, but decided to stay home this time. I hate the hot humid weather. My mom went & said it was disappointing~not very many vendors this time. I think the heat kept them away. Love Amy's for their caramel apples. They are so expensive but a wonderful treat. Love that you managed to find a bunch of goodies.
Have a wonderful evening~Becky
Looks like a fun day out and I LOVE that glove box. It's beautiful!
OK I need that caramel apple!!!! glad I found your blog...love it!
Hi Robin,
Gosh I haven't been to Cedarburg in years!!!! And I'm only about and hours drive from there...maybe just a bit more. Gosh, there's so much in my own back yard and I don't get to them.
Love the tins you bought - especially the popcorn tin...never seen one like that.
An old pair of very used Leather gloves would look awesome in the box.
Enjoy your run to the Rapids...we had fun there a couple weeks ago!
Check out my blog and the tab at the top for Country Freckles!
