Can you believe it, I just finished Front Porch Pickins last month, and I decided to do The Big Heap in Flagstaff in June. I want to thank my sisters for helping me with the last show! They helped me set up, worked in my booth and then helped take down everything and load it up before they went home to Wyoming and Yuma! I am so thankful for them!!
The day after the show our dad got sick and went into the hospital. Between helping him and finishing up the school year, I have been very busy. He's doing better and we have one week left of school, and then I hope I get some time to play.
The Big Heap is a fun show because it is handmade and vintage, and cool junk! I have some old tool boxes that I have been collecting over the years. I really don't know why they appeal to me, but they do. I had an old red toolbox that I decided to turn into a travel kit for shows. I used some old lace and paint to liven it up. I got online and found a list of things you should take to vintage shows. I gathered up all their recommendations and added a few of my own, and made this traveling kit.

Here is another tool box that I got ready to sell.
