NEXT MONTH! DESTINATION:Paris on the Orient Express

Bonjour!

Just a quick note to let you all know about our August theme in The French Flea.  We will be "Going to Paris on the Orient Express", this is going to be a fun theme and our vendors are busily gathering for this eclectic theme!  This is not an asian theme, as many of you might think, when you think of "The Orient Express".  If you go to the website http://www.orient-express.com/  you will see what we will be trying to create in our wonderful French Flea.  This is going to be quite an eclectic mix of things going on.  We will create a sleeping berth, and a bar car, which was the heart of the train.  This is getting our creative juices flowing, just wait and see... it is going to be fab!  Au revoir..

Here's the scoop... it's Riverfest in Anoka with lots of festivities, crafts and artwork on the streets this coming Saturday!

Thursday night is once again Ladies Night Out and we will be serving up orange floats for our customers that evening from 6-8. Then on Sunday, from 1-5, Anoka is having their annual historical tour and we are honored to have the opportunity to be able to re-do a boat house for this...check out our blog to see pictures already posted!

This is going to be a great sale with much fun and celebration in our quaint little town of Anoka. Please come and join us for this month's theme "Summertime Fun and Blues". Our back patio is filled with great finds and furniture! We are filled up, backed up, stacked up and once again, we can hardly move!!!!!

It's going to be an amazing sale, so we'd really love to have all our customers join us for it! Here's a sneak peak.  Hope to see you there!

Historical Home Tour in Anoka...The French Flea does Re-Do Fabulous Boat House on MississippiI!!!

It's maybe forth of July weekend, but we at the French Flea are still busy getting something special ready for you.  On July 11th, from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm is the historical home tour in Anoka and we have been busy, busy, busy. We are pleased and honored to be asked to re-do a boat house on the Mississippi River that is included in the tour. Here is a sneek peak at what were are up to in this quaint boat house.. a.k.a. "woman's cave"!

We were so very honored to be able to stage this for the home tour and what fun we had doing it!  It is such an awesome place, and so peaceful!  It's definiately a  place where you could go to get away, have a cup of coffee, listen to some music, read a book, or just watch the river flow by.  Sit back and enjoy the pictures.

What a gorgeous view!

Looks like a good place to sit and read . . .

Or in the wintertime, you can start a fire!

But maybe right now, I'll just sit here and enjoy the sun and the view!

Check back too early next week as we will be posting pictures of the inside of the Flea.  We have some great stuff for the "Riverfest Celebration" in Anoka.  Come by and visit us at the shop and don't forget the home tour.  You can get tickets by contacting the historical society in Anoka. But for now, au revoir!
