Favorite Finds from Round Top

Okay, this will be my last Round Top post (until I get to go again, of course!). See posts below for more!
I found some wonderful, one of a kind old treasures there. I love that when you go to a Flea Market, you never know what you will find, then fall in love with, and then absolutely HAVE to take home with you. I think the old post top above wins first place in that category, but here are some other favorites:

I can't say enough just how huge the Round Top Antique Fair is. JUST HUGE.
We shopped for a couple of days and didn't come close to seeing it all. One thing I didn't understand until we arrived is that Round Top, Texas is one teeny tiny town (population: 84). There are plenty of dealers set up just in Round Top, but so many, MANY more are set up in the areas and small towns surrounding Round Top. You would see the biggest outdoor flea market you had ever seen, and then, you would drive a bit and see another one that was just as big. Repeat that about 10 times, at least!
Here are just a few of the wonderful sights we saw:


See that aquarium? If you need one, I know where you can find it!

Howdy!

I have some Etsy listing to do, and the proof is in the picture above. I just returned from the famous Round Top, Texas Antique Fair. It takes place twice a year and is unbelievably HUGE. I will gradually be listing all of the above and more!
I'll be back soon with some other Round Top pictures!
