We are celebrating fall here at Tattered Tiques. We have filled our main table with fall crafts as well as some great treasures that are perfect for fall decorating. We will have more to come in the up coming weeks, along with very exciting news. We are also going to expand our hours so we can be open more for you. Now, some cute pics of what's in the store this week.
I LOVE old antlers. We always buy them when we are up north, because they are plentiful up there.
More banners, and how about some festive fringe garland.
These are old cricket boxes. They were used to transport crickets when you went fishing. We turned them in to a fall display box.
We have been busy restocking some of our crafts, including, Marche Tags.
Our new favorite find is filled to the brim with lots of goodies!
Many, many more Paris bottles.
We sold out on dressers last week, so we got busy searching for more. They are REALLY cute!
See what I mean? We just can't get enough of this color, and either can our customers. 
Well, we hope you come out and see us this weekend. We are open this Thursday, Sept. 1st, Friday the 2nd, and Saturday the 3rd. Thursday and Friday from 10-5pm, and Saturday 10-3pm. Visit us at 22029 N. Pepper Road, Unit 2, Lake Barrington, IL.
There was so much to share from our recent trip to Oronoco Minnesota, I decided to make two posts. While we were there, we were so excited to get to meet Ki Nassauer from Flea Market Style magazine. She is also the founder of Junk Bonanza, held every year in Shakopee Mn. If you've never gone to Junk Bonanza, maybe this should be your year. Ki and her staff were so, so sweet and friendly! It was very exciting to get to meet her, get autographs, and pictures taken with her.
Um, not the best picture of me, and obviously I didn't get the memo, "not" to wear a tank top. Anne must of known we would be getting our pictures taken! Anyway, we were pretty geeked up about this opportunity. Ki is sort of a celebrity in the junking world!
And now for the Junk Bonanza display, which was awesome.
This is what we needed more of on this trip. One day was a little crazy, but manageable.
This is Ki and her crew doing a little photo shoot.
This is what our van looked like the first time we packed it. We had to repack it a few times more. That's not a bad thing, it just means we had much more to pick up!
This is all just a sneak peak of what will be available this week in the shop.
You'll have to stop by for a visit. The shop will be open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. We also have some exciting news to mention this week, so stay tuned!

Last week Anne and I took off after work on Thursday to drive 6 hours to Oronoco Mn, for "Gold Rush Days". We had heard of this whole town flea market bonanza a couple of years back and decided to give it a try. Well, it was worth the trip! We loved it! It was pretty overwhelming because we only had one day to go through the whole thing. We were overwhelmed, tired, hot, crabby, starving and had to get through it all in a day and then drive home. I had to share with you what we saw.
Here is just one of the many streets in town lined up and down with vendors.
Now for the good stuff.
There were some great displays at this market, but the junky looking booths were more for us!
As you can see, there was a little bit of everything at this market. How about a gigantic, awesome steer for your yard? He was amazing.
I wanted her so bad, but she was way out of my price range.
I was so excited when I saw this. It's anantique French bee skep. It was fabulous! I had never seen one before.
These guys were so cute and I thought about bringing them home because I have a little white westie. But, I saved my moola and instead bought a vintage light up plastic cow. You know how I love cows. I figure I may not ever have a real one, so a plastic one will have to do.
This thing was so awesome. I thought about it all day. Anne and I finally went back for it before we headed out of town and bought it!
There is something wonderful about multiples of things and this market had a ton.
They always make for the best pictures.
We brought a bunch more of these home with us.
Something we are addicted to. Antique and vintage clocks. Just can't get enough of them.
We also have a thing for stools.
These antique baby baths were from a Hungarian hospital. They were so cool, I had to get one for our shop. They would make great ice buckets for a party, or an adorable planter.
And shop is what we did. We actually bought almost all of this vendors old letters.
I have much more to share so stop by later this week for part 2 of Gold Rush. For more information on Oronoco Minnesota, or Gold Rush days visit http://www.goldrushmn.com/.
