New Uses for Old Stuff

The Pec Thing is an event artisans and collectors display and sell their antiques, collectibles, and crafted creations. Even though it rained substantially this morning and the roofers didn’t finish up until 11:30 this morning, I headed to the Winnebago County Fair Grounds around noon for The Pec Thing.

This antique and flee market has a meaning to me because of two things: 1. it was an event my mom and I liked to attend when we could, and 2. it reminds me of running her garage sales every spring and fall.

It’s been a while since I have had the chance to get to the fair grounds for this so I was surprised at how large the event had grown.

It is always good to be surrounded by all the old stuff and new stuff, made from old stuff. It inspires me and gives me some ideas to try.
