Today, I went to SWEET SALVAGE
with my buddy, Dawn...
Sweet Salvage is open ONLY
four days a month
{third Thursday - Sunday}...
They feature a different theme each month,
so it's completely changed out every month.
This month, the theme was:
"Sweet Flea..."
You can see all of the fans
waiting in line to get inside...
The line wraps around the building.
Me and Dawn waiting in line...
Dawn makes a new friend in line...
Love this French-style chair!
Pretty displays!
Lots of vintage treasures!
Love it all!
Lots of shoppers!
Pretty!
So many things to see...
Way cool industrial sign!
Yes, that is Tim Holtz!
He was checking out Sweet Salvage...
I don't think anyone there recognized him...
He's like a rock star in the world of
Paper Crafting and Mixed Media...
LOL!
He let me take his photo...
Who wouldn't love a stack
of old suitcases? ♥
Pretty displays everywhere!
Ho, ho, ho!!!
Sweet Salvage groupies! LOL!
Gail, Dawn, and Judy...
Hope you enjoyed the visit,
it's almost like you were there!
Thanks for stopping by!!! ;)

ReplyDeleteCely - It is lots of fun! All the old stuff that looks like it was pulled from a dumpster is very trendy now...who would had known! LOL!
DeleteMerry Christmas!

I ALWAYS enjoy your photos of this place!!!!!!!!! :) HOW FUN!!!!!!!!! :) AND, did you give Tim Holtz one of your BUSINESS CARDS???? :) You SHOULD HAVE!!!!!!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteBecky - I'm such a dork, I ran out of business cards! UGH! Can you believe it? I normally have a stack of them with me and I gave away the last one before I ran into Tim...
DeleteMerry Christmas!

I wanna go!!! LOL By chance did you see Santa's list while he was there? Hopefully, he was shopping for me.
ReplyDeleteClaudia - Santa was shopping for you! He says "Hi and ho, ho, ho!"
DeleteMerry Christmas!!! ;)

lI am blown away by this..what were the prices like?
ReplyDeleteThe prices are reasonable...people are so crazy about the beautiful displays! Sweet Salvage is the "Master of Merchandising"...
DeleteMerry Christmas!

Whoa! Santa and Tim Holtz all in one place, besides an awesome shopping??? My dream day...
ReplyDeleteIt was a fab day! ;)
DeleteHow cool!!! and what a fun place, I want to go! =)
ReplyDeleteAll the shops along 7th Avenue in the Melrose part of Phoenix are fabulous to visit!
DeleteMerry Christmas! ;)
Wow AWESOME vintage stuff!! And Tim Holtz??!! OMG, he's my inspiration, wish I could meet him someday~ :D
ReplyDeleteI hope you meet him someday! He is a nice and talented guy...
DeleteHe used to work at Ben Franklin's Crafts up in Prescott, AZ before he became well-known.
-PaMeLa ;)
OH NO! NOT AGAIN.... It's really not fair that you show us all these fab goodies. Remember, some of us are located thousands of miles away without any chance of ever getting close to these branches of Paradise.
ReplyDeleteJust kidding (in envy) - It looks fantastic, and you are so lucky having places like this close to you.
XOXO & A Very Merry Christmas
