It is that time of year when Hunting FUN is hard. Not only are there fewer items to choose from but the weather conditions make it difficult. Dispite that it is winter and searching is harder, we have been able to find some wonderful items. So what does it take to acquire FUN in the winter?? Well that depends. For us it requires lots of time dedicated to a travel plan, using our day off as our hunting day, 5:00am mornings, standing in line in the snow, shoping everywhere (even places that you have not been successful and prayer. |

Sometimes your best plans just don't pan out. We decided to head to St. Louis on Saturday to hit some interesting sales only to find that all the items we wanted were already gone. We brought the trailer thinking that we would fill it up (which cost us pushing 200.00 in gas). Don't get me wrong we still found some items but not enough to merit dragging our trailer or the cost. Sometimes it just works out that way. A lot of effort and energy with little to show for it. |

 Recently we traveled to Kansas City to participate in a Family Reunion. Of course we had to figure out how were going to squeeze in shopping for Funtiques at the same time. We left on a Friday morning and hit every sale, shop and auction we could fit into one day. We spent the night in KC with some family. Saturday afternoon was the Family party. We got up early on Sat. and spent 3 more hours hunting FUN. It's a good thing we love shopping as much as we do. And yes, the Family Reunion was fun too! |

On Wednesday we had a Mid Century Dealer from out of state buy a trailer load of Funtiques Furniture and smalls. Because we had the Ozark Antique Festival Saturday and Sunday we decided to jump into the van Thursday and see what we could find in St. Louis. We were hopeful that we would find some great items to bring back to Funtiques and to share at the antique show. Little did we know that we would find so much that we had to borrow my sisters garage in St. Louis to store what we could not fit into the van. |

This blog is dedicated to telling you about our Funtiques purchasing adventures. Kevin and I have spent over 20 years in the pursuit of crazy, wacky, retro, psycho stuff and had a blast doing it. My goal is to include you in the FUN! |
