today's the day! the bestie and i get to hit some estate sales together! it's been a very, very long time since we've done that and i am so excited!
since we'll be on the road all day (heading out to the first sale at 6:30am) i thought i'd try something a little different for this week's finds to fancy post- we're going live!
|
kind of love those early morning drives in the truck- it can be so beautiful out there! |
all day long i'll be snapping instagram shots of what we're gathering and you can follow along three different ways:
one.
instagram. if you're an instagram user- follow me! my username is danaerolyn. if you don't have an iphone or aren't an instagram user, you can still follow via my
instagrid.
two/three. twitter/facebook. i'll be sharing today's shots on both the
gather and hunt facebook page and
twitter account. if you don't already 'like' the g&h facebook page- i'd love for you to click that little button today! i've also been having a lot of fun interacting with readers over on twitter, so feel free to 'follow' me as well!
now if you don't really do the social media thing- no worries- i'll post all the photos here later!
okay, ready? let's head out on the hunt! see you on the road!
|
ha ha- a very flattering shot of me! |
oh, and as always- i want to see your finds! email them to me at danae{at}gatherandhuntvintage{dot}com so i can share them here on a future friday!
UPDATE: for those who weren't following along on Friday, here's the whole collection of instagram photos from our day out on the hunt...
