It was UNbelievable. It&#8217;s basically the biggest flea market\/garage sale you&#8217;ve ever seen. Acres of furniture (antique or handmade), decor, clothing, collectibles, food, you name it. We were there for five hours but Dad said we didn&#8217;t cover but 30% of it!<\/p>\n<p>So, to break it down: I saw the most beautiful, handcrafted, reclaimed and salvaged furniture&#8230;old church pews and arched bookcases, chunky coffee tables and cowhide leather couches. For $10,000 I could have purchased an <em>altar<\/em> from an actual catholic church&#8230;for real. This darling old couple we met have a permanent antique shop set up there; they get the stuff off a boat and the husband lovingly refurbishes everything so it looks like new. I would die to have some of their amazing pieces! It was pretty overwhelming&#8230;and not having Vann with me I couldn&#8217;t make any major purchases, BUT we did happen on this little woman who handpaints children&#8217;s furniture&#8230;and her creations could not be any sweeter. Seriously. We practically bought her out. A table and four chairs, a nightstand for Charlie&#8217;s room, and the sweetest little kindergarten school desk you&#8217;ve ever seen. <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Thursday Dad took me over to Canton, Texas&#8217; 1st Monday Trade Days.
