First Monday in October

 
Fall at First Monday in Canton is just the best time to go.  The weather was awesome and on Friday when I went, it was not that crowded at all.  I spent most of my time on the grounds instead of the indoor arbors.  I wanted to enjoy the cool weather and sunshine.  I love all the unique items I see when I walk up and down the aisles.  I've always said, if you can't find it at First Monday, you won't find it ANYWHERE!. Here are some of the fun things I had to photograph while I was there.


I love the chimineas lined up like the tombstones in the background.

This Chiminea is a little seasonal, but for Halloween or Thanksgiving, how fun!

I'm just SURE someone collects rolling pins!

Or gas pumps.  Where would you put a gas pump if you purchased this one?  In a game room?  Your back yard?

Or Tin-Men??   I love yard art, so maybe I would consider these guys.

Busted!  This shoe fell off the table while I was visiting this booth.  I guess it was fate because it fit perfectly. It ended up in my cart since I feel it was 'meant to be'. I had such fun with the sweet couple that owned this booth.  I wish I had written their names down, but hopefully I'll see them again next month.  I gave them my website info so hopefully they'll log on and add a comment.

'Corkey' shoes are a big hit these days.  The rain boots are now coming out in the shape of cowboy boots and in the most fabulous colors.  I slipped on this pair as a sample of what they have.  These are the animal print ankle boots. I did end up with a pair, but not this particular one.  I'll share in another post.

Scrimping on sunglasses is not an option.  I believe you should always wear polarized and UV protected lenses, and for sure, you can find them at First Monday.  I have paid a lot of money for sunglasses, but since I always lose them, break them, or scratch them, I've decided this is the place to purchase them.  $10 per pair is a great deal and they meet all my specifications.


The vendor that owns this booth actually painted his van himself.  Awesome artwork.  Imagine passing this on the highway.

I headed out to my lake house in Hide-A-Way after this to enjoy a boatride and glass of wine with hubby.  Awesome way to end the day.  I'll post some photos soon.


Have a GREAT week.
