The Flea Bags are Having Another Sale!

I can't believe it's already been a month since the last sale at The French Flea! Where does a month go? Pretty soon it'll be fall. Ooops. Sorry. Don't want to rush anything now do I. Just have to sit back and relax and enjoy the lazy, hazy days of summer. Which, by the way is the new theme this month at the Flea. We will be open this Thursday, July 9 through Sunday, July 13. Check The French Flea website for hours.

Here's a little insight into what you'll find. As you enter the shop you will be greeted by a relaxing park-like setting, accented with an industrial flair. Lots of metals and wire, greys and blacks. Very unique and unexpected vignettes with some beachy accents thrown in the mix just for fun. Then as you walk toward the back of the store you'll find Dominique's Dressing Room. It's still in the works, but will be ready by Thursday. You'll have to come and see it for yourself! Last, but certainly not least, we'll have the garden area all set up for you to enjoy. Avant Garden, the coffee shop next door, has been busy working on the brick wall, visible from our patio, with a beautiful wall mural done by a local artist. It will definitely be a must-see!

As an added treat, we have been given the wonderful opportunity to be a part of Anoka's historical home tour, being held on Sunday, July 12. As part of the celebration, we will be designing three rooms, a dining room, living room and sun porch, on a home that was built in 1860. It is in the process of being totally renovated by a young gal and her father, and is an awesome home, along with the many others on the tour. You will also find live music, pontoon rides and a craft exhibit. Check out the Riverfest website for other activites and more details.

In other news, I am happy to say that there are two more occasional sales now in Anoka. How great is that! Also starting this month is a new Girl's Night Out, which will be the second Thursday evening of every month. On that night from 4-8 pm you'll find shopping, refreshments and fun for all. Downtown Anoka will be hopping with excitement. You won't want to miss it so hope to see you there!

Here is a little sneak peak at what is in store this month.
