2009 Michigan Antique Markets

antiquemarketThere are many signs of spring, warmer weather, the birds singing, flowers blooming and garage sale signs posted on every corner.

You also know it is spring because many outdoor flea markets and antique shows are taking place. These shows provide a great opportunity to discover something you were not looking for. Something you just can’t live without. Something to good to pass up. Something that brings a smile to your face every time you look at it.

Even if you go to a market and don’t buy anything, it never is a waste of time. There are always interesting things to see and interesting people to watch. Stop and take time to talk to the vendors. Ask some questions. They are a wealth of knowledge and you may leave with a new appreciation for something you never really thought about before. And, of course, it is always good to walk around and breath in the fresh air. Although, the air may be filled with the tantalizing aromas of elephant ears and popcorn!

Here is a list of some of the shows brought to my attention. If you know of others, please fill me in on the details. Help the Michigan economy and buy something.
