It  was  turn key & I fell hard the very moment I walked throgh the door. We love it here &  I feel so blessed to be the current keeper of this special place.

 last summer We hosted 2 sales here which were amazing but alot of work. I had asked some people to vend here with me but it didn’t pan out. So this  year I wanted to have one BIG sale. I started asking around in march to see if anyone was keen & I had lots of takers.  I admit that throughout the summer season I haad a ton of reservations,wondering if anyone would come,if it would be worthwhile for the other vendors,would it come together………

 Well,Saturday was a huge success!!!People came,the vendors were amazing,we did it!!

Midsale I looked around & people were smiling,lounging around,children had their sticky little mitts buried in the chicken nest boxes looking for eggs. There was so much love & enjoyment in the air,it was brilliant. A final destination was reached……. as each new person walked onto this farm a culmination of 5years of dreaming came true,it was epic,indeed.  So many memories were made here this weekend  & I can only wish that each year will bring many more.

  Thankyou from every corner of my heart to all who vended & especailly those of you who decide to attend a tiny farm sale in the middle of nowhere!!!!

Cheers from the Mikone Farm Family

Goodnight & see you all in the morning.

Bucket Bags

Sorry for the late night post but I have been out setting up for the show all day.  Before I head off to bed I wanted to tell you about  my dear friend caroline’s beautiful hand printing.

Giraffe's....love it

Youn can find her at:

Market

Caroline also  sells her wares at the Moss street market. Isn’t her stall so sweet & inviting.  She  prints on organic fabrics & uses non-toxic waterbased inks,too.   Come out  this saturday to the farm & meet her, she just happens to one of the funniest people I know!!!  Goodnight  good people

Look for the signs

Well the days are winding down & the sale is almost here!!! As a little treat  I would like to giveaway a $25 discount off of anything in my booth to one lucky person. All you have to do is leave a comment below &  tell one person about the sale!!!

Check your e-mails friday night as I will announce the winner then!!! I will also post it on our farmgate sign Sat morning.

The loot.....

Things are slowly getting sorted,still lots of projects to finish that aren’t in the picture but we are making headway,yahoooooo

Antique Theatre Seats

These look way better in person & would be fantastic in someones hip groovy space.

Icebox

   I really really really wanted to keep this for myself but if I kept all the things I loved there would be maybe 2 things in the sale…… So luckily I am being  TOTALLY rational & only keeping 1 of every 3 items I love……which leaves tons for the sale.   Note to self~ do not collect animals like you collect furniture or the SPCA will come. Luckily there isn’t a furniture SPCA or I would be a #1 offender,hahaha

Anyways enough babble, I will see you fine people at the sale!!!

Oh & don’t forget to enter the draw!!!

I would like one of each,yes please!!!

Such lovely workmanship….

These are my favorite!!!!! I will be buying these on the 27th for sure.

Have a peaceful weekend with the ones you love.

Shiny glass Ornaments

 This for the holiday collectors who will be attending the sale. I will have a fairly large assortment of glass decorations,garlands,early paper items etc. Here are a few peeks of some of the treasures.

I was super thrilled when I found these 1925 tinsel packages,the graphics are awesome.

Tinsel Scrap decorations

I have a pile of about 50 of these  early victorian paper ornaments,ready to find new homes. These are just a couple photos & do NOT reflect the actual amount of vintage christmas stuff which will be for sale. There will be a whole table!!!!! so you better get here. Back tomorrow,hopefully with an update on the super fantastic jewler Jenny….. Also please leave comments on what kinds of things you want me to write & post photo’s on?????? I look forward to your idea’s…….cheerio
