Round Top, Texas GUIDE ~ PART IV
It has been so much fun writing all about Round Top Antique Week these past few days as we gear up for our trip to Texas next week!! In case you’ve missed it, click HERE to see the complete CactusCreekDaily.com Round Top GUIDE.
Round Top Antique Week is a culmination of many shows that take place in and around Round Top, TX {MAP Below}. 
Once you’ve had dinner & spirits in Round Top, and have spent some time at Marburger Farm, the next “must see” venue is definitely Warrenton, home of Zapp Hall, the Junk Gypsies, and more junk antiques that you cannot live without!!
Like Round Top, Warrenton is another small Texas town {population 65+ } that swells to THOUSANDS during Antique Week. Over 30 shopping venues blend and cross-market to make Warrenton a great way to spend a day shopping.
{TIP: Park in a field and WALK. Traffic is insane and you will save yourself LOTS of aggravation by sporting some comfey sneakers and leaving your wheels behind!!}
First stop when we arrive in Warrenton: the Bar W Field which features the Rustic Art Gallery {pictured ABOVE}, “Vintage and antique treasures imported directly from the heart of Mexico”, ARCHITECTURAL Salvage, IRON, Cowboy BOOTS, Vintage Clothing AND MORE!!
NEXT, before heading over to Cole’s Antique Show, swing through ZAPP HALL where there are several merchants who will make you go ga-ga. This is also another chance to grab some of Bud Royer’s famous grub {the chunky chicken salad is to die for!!} and, of course, a cold Shiner Bock.
Cole’s Antique Show {ABOVE} is the place to retreat next. 200 vendors ~ 63,000 square feet ~ A/C ~ indoor restroom. Not only was this a comfortable way to spend the afternoon last Spring, we also found TONS of treasures!!
There are still TONS of vendors to see in Warrenton but the most famous of them all is the Junk Gypsies {BELOW}. Known for their vibrant brand, “Pedal to the Metal” mantra, and true Texas spirit, this is a stop that you CANNOT MISS!!!
Located right on Highway 237 as you make your way into Warrenton, the Junk Gypsies’ famous pink Suburban {”Large Marge”} greets the crowd and let’s you know that you’ve made it to the pinnacle of Junkiness!! I could go on and on about the fabulous goods that can be found in the Junk Gypsies’ booth ~ tees, boots, peely-paint, iron, velvet, belt buckles… But you’ve really GOT to see it for yourself!!
Topping it all off is the Junk-O-Rama PROM which is hosted by the beautiful Gypsies and is LOADS of fun!! This is THE place to be next Thursday night, October 2nd!!
Tomorrow we’ll tie things up with one more Round Top Antique Week shopping stop, plus some essential web links to get you where you want to go in Round Top. It’s almost time to hit the road… Yee Haw!!
