A rooten' tooten' Trip to Quartzsite Arizona...part 1

Howdy gals...I'm back from my trip on a whim...and it was great! Daddy-o & I hitched up our lil' 53 cupcake trailer and ooooh weeeeee had a blast...first stoppin' at the ol Dennys for a big ol breakfast to start off our day...are you ready for some drivin' ...ooooh ya-

The views were so beautiful...

the sun was out & the warm air felt so good after all the rain...hmmm this was the makings for a fab trip... to Quartzsite Arizona for their yearly longest flea market and quartz rock show...not to mention hangin out with all my sisters from my trailer group sisters on the fly...

You see every year all the California gals jaunt over to the Arizona gals side for some shoppin, campin' and oh honey some dutch oven cookin'( they host the best campout!!!)...we think this is the coolest thing...and this year Daddy-o was a judge for the competition...he said his best gig evah!!! Tastin' all that fab food...

I can't believe how these gals do it...one gal even made a cheesecake in her dutch oven!!!!!! wow who does that...amazing... you see you cook it underground with coals...you have to be exact and it takes so much time...amazing!!! So to say the least...there was a lot of food...& a lot of fun...& hmmmm shoppin!!!!!!!

oh gals the shoppin... it is about a month long a people travel hundreds of miles to sell their goods...they stay in trailers and hotels and stake their places to sell things from all over this great country...the shoppin' is endless...you can't possibly ever see it all...

I spent an entire day shoppin' ...and didn't even get out of the very first section...it is hundreds of miles long...hundreds...you'd have to stay all month to scratch the surface...it is fab...just fab!

oh my oh my...amazing treasures...these are some wonderful metal makeup cases and pill boxes

and one of a kinds everywhere...and gals the jewelry is amazing...vintage goodies of every era.

The sellers really try and stage well...i love sellers that take the time to put like things together...

their are booths and booths of vintage goods...it is so much fun to hunt out treasures..

many ol ' wire places and farm equipment...as well as linens & so much glass wear...you really can find everything at this market!


so yes it was a blast but boy oh boy i was tired!

So this set is one of my treasures...I've never seen anything like these...different canisters of thick leaded glass & old metal stands...they were so beautiful i had to have them! i thought to place them in my bathroom with cotton balls and q-tips in them...the two on the edge i will place candles in them...the large on in the back is my favorite...they are soooooooo heavy! i love them...usually i don't buy much for the home when i am vintage shoppin'...usually i buy clothes or things for my trailer...so this is a treat to find a goodie i can enjoy in my home...

so anywhoooo that is part 1 of my trip...next i will show some adorable trailers of some very fab gals...happy trails gals...swing by again real soon ya'hear! Cat

The Vintagehousewife...Olga Challenge!!!!

Hey sassy gals! Cat here with a challenge!!! Yes an Olga challenge...well lets see here ladies...This is the amazing Olga San Juan...a 1940's actress with all the right curves & moves... I just adore her and her name so fit into something else i just adore...OLGA'S!!!

Yes these Olga's! The amazing Vintage Olga nightgowns of yester years... Do you know about these gals??? Well let this kitten give you the scoop...You see this is it...the fool proof Olga nightie...this is by far the most flattering nightgown in history! And kittens i have 9 of them...why you ask?...take a peek...

You see gals Vintage Olga night gowns will fit almost any size...Really they do! & you will look sooooooooo good!! They are made of spandex and are amazingly comfy, cool, and dare i say it a lil' sexy kittens!

There have been many styles through out the years. Some of my favorite styles are from the 40's & 60's...each Olga has a style number on the tag & has a different pattern to the lace layout...some a lil showy & others very elegant and tasteful! Find your favorite style number...or like me...just love' em all ! I collect all different colors...& find them everywhere you just gotta know what to look for. The trick to the Olga...the spandex...and that they all have a back like this which gives much support for the chest and even the largest of chests don't need a bra...it's magic!

So gals...the challenge...get yourself an Vintage Olga nightgown! You won't be sorry...you will LOVE the way you look no matter what size you are!

Now the secret to an Olga...size down...yup dont'cha love hearin' that gals...size down!...it will hug just purrrrrrfectly & flow wonderfully! Oh gals you wont be sorry! You will be an Olga gal too!!! Happy hunting...Cat~
