Once again, we are so excited we can hardly stand it . . . W
e are again vending at American Primitives at Clayson Farm Antique Show . . . which in our not so humble opinion has earned its rightful place at the top of our "Must Attend Antiques Show / Vintage Market" list. It is absolutely worth the drive from Seattle to attend this vintage market . . . trust us, it's good pickins!
Why do we love this outdoor vintage market, funky junk, primitive and antique show so much?
Cool Customers. American Primitives attracts some of the most interesting customers. They are unique and inspiring. Always something to learn, share and bond over. Nothing like a yard full of furniture with peeling paint to get funky junkers chatting and sharing!
Fantastic Vendors. Like other really fantastic antique shows, there are vendors at this small, primitive / antique show / vintage market a few short miles from Yakima who ONLY do this show. They hunt and gather all year and bring their finds to charm you, warm your heart . . . enough to inspire complete room makeovers!
Stunning Setting. American Primitives takes place in the front yard of show promoter Leslee Mobley's home . . . a charming home, with charming elements that will make you feel at home and, oh, so inspired! Truly, a beautiful setting for an outdoor antiques show / vintage market.
It's in Yakima! Some . . . OK . . . one of the Cat Eye Girls is a former westsider who left the rain and terrain of Seattle and never looked back. And, since at least one of us is now a local, and despite what you may read in the "Seattle Times," Yakima is a wonderful place to live, hunt for buried treasure and live an amazingly rich, simple life. And . . . the weather . . . well, it's mostly perfect!
