Yesterday my super crafty friend Amanda & I took an impromptu mini-road trip to check out the Picket Fence Gals vintage sale in Lindstrom, MN. Lindstrom is the most adorable little Scandinavian town, with a tea kettle water tower and the yummiest little main-street bakery. Right along the main drag, you'll find the Picket Fence Gals are nestled in a big, white, old, and adorable Victorian house. Once a month (Wed-Sun), twenty-something awesome antique vendors pool their goodies and open their doors for a giant sale of vintage items. They are constantly updating their displays and the treasures are all new every month!
I was so excited to spend an afternoon here! So many fresh ideas and finds. I came home kicking myself for not buying a piece or two...All part of the adventure! However, I did not return empty-handed. I could not resist the small minty-green metal tray, children's book with orange illustrations in the inside cover, and this little wooden octopus puzzle (which I doubt is very vintage at all--but cute, nevertheless).
Happy weekend friends! This poor little blog has been on the back burner for far too long! Am planning a little giveaway + some photos of our most recent road trip next week.

I have never been to Lindstrom.. I'll have to check it out sometime. I live in Minneapolis, too!
I just bought a very similar green metal tray from Hunt and Gather today :)
Oh wow, the little puzzle is adorable!
Love that little green tray! So sad to have missed you last week and a little ironic that we were headed to the place you just came from! Glad you got back safe and sound!
That place sounds like heaven! :) I'm loving that mint green tray! Love your blog btw and am following you!
Oh don't you just love days like these? it looks beautiful and sunny and I'm totally smitten with the green tea tray!!
