Hi friends!
As I reported last, I am getting ready to be a vendor at the Marshfield Vintage Market!
I wanted to take a few minutes to check-in and and let you know that yes, I am still here and I am still blogging. After next weekend things will be back to normal around here. Well, as normal as they ever are.
Today I’m going to share a bit of the sun room and a wee bit of what has been keeping me busy. If you like cottage style with a dash of vintage flavor, these sweet, shabby garlands are going to be right up your alley. They are right up mine! In fact.. I don’t know how I am going to part with them. I get a little attached.
How do y’all with shops and booths create and paint and part with it?
I’ve been busy creating, crafting, painting and building.
(along with help from my guys too!)
I’m so hopeful that the shoppers like what I have to bring!!
I’m a little nervous.
Okay, a lot nervous!!
I got some serious hand fatigue tying all these garlands I made, but they are SO CUTE! You don’t think cutting a zillion strips of fabric would do it, but I guess that can happen with any muscle you aren’t used to using. Once I started though, I just had to make one more.. and one more, and just maybe one more.
You get the picture. When I like something I get a little obsessed.
Man, I wish I did not like cookies…
I made fluttery garlands, fat garlands, short and long.
Some are more colorful than others…
And I love the uniqueness in each of them!
This little peek is all I had time to highlight right now.
What really makes me love these little pretties so much, is that you can create any look you like, for any occasion, using a multitude of fabrics and ribbons… in any size and any color!
You can adorn furnishings with them… drape them across a window and watch the breeze make them flutter, hang them on a wall, in a nursery, bedroom.. or use them as a photo backdrop or party decoration!
They just make you smile.
And smiling is good.
