What I’m Lovin’ Wednesday: Antiquing

A couple weekends ago we went antiquing with some of our best friends in Houston.  We went to the largest antique show in the country and it was SO MUCH FUN!  We walked for miles looking at tons of treasures!  If it weren’t for the fact that we were getting sunburnt, our feet hurt, and the sun was going down, we could have shopped for weeks!  There was so much to look at that I could hardly focus.  I’ve got two more bedrooms in my “warm bungalow” to decorate so next time I will definitely have a much longer list to help guide my shopping instead of just hoping from tent to tent with big googlie eyes hahaha
It was so nice to get out of the city for the weekend and move at a slower, more pleasant, pace.DSC_0376-2DSC_0388-2DSC_0404-2DSC_0419-2Collage 12
I saw this “Dead People Stuff” sign and couldn’t help but giggle a little.  Isn’t that what antiquing is?! People drop big bucks for this kind of stuff lol
I saw a lot of neat things and I’ve got a lot of great DIY ideas coming your way friends :-)Collage 9Collage 1Collage 3Collage 2Collage 4Collage 5Collage 6Collage 7Collage 8Collage 10Collage 11

After a great weekend with friends, we started back into the city and saw some Blue Bonnets! I feel like I can finally call myself a Texan, since I have finally seen the Blue Bonnets and taken pictures of them.
Next time I will have to get my picture with them!DSC_0567-2

They really are pretty!
I wonder if I should plant some of these in the yard?DSC_0569-2DSC_0570-2
Yep, I’m a real Texan now ;-)

Have you ever been antiquing? If you go antiquing in Houston, what places would you recommend? I have 2 more rooms to decorate and I need some suggestions :-)
