View from the steps

This is what you see when going up the steps into Rolaine's farm house...all set up for her vendors. Nice job!

Scoops o' Fun

Pink-was the color of the day...with pink napkins and these darling party hats turned into carmel corn holders.

Lemonade

Oh yum and it was great and organic too...I love that!

Good food

Oh people-I could have sat down with this bowl of cream cheese dip and eaten nothin' else. (I think it had caramel in it as well.) Alas, I saved some for the other guests.

Millionaire Brownies

Delicious!

Tea and More

Hostesses

Sharon and Rolaine pose for photos on the porch.

Food

Lots of yummy delights here for the guests to enjoy-little sammies, scones, crackers, and fruit

Vendor Gifts

Sharon wrote a poem and Rolaine put it on these cute cards for each of the vendors. How Sweet!

Rolaine asked me to do a demo showing how I make my crowns. That was fun. I do love to teach and so it was great to get to share all about how the crowns go together. Thanks, Rolaine! You can see the barn behind me...very cool!

So serious

What is up with this look?...I say to myself. I must have been in deep thought. The vendors came up to visit with me about my crowns, that was so nice. I sold the demo crowns I had brought with me. Maybe I will make some more after all.

Mercantile Queen dons her Crown

After I did my demo my picture was taken by some of the ladies there...so I posed.

Farm Chicks

Stood in line for just about an hour to get in to this year's show stopping event. The first 1/2 hour was easy shopping, then it got pretty crowded trying to manuver with my granny cart. So I stayed all day so I could get a good look at everything. The crowds did dissapate in the late afternoon, so this gave me a chance to make my way through the booths with my trusty cart. I even did some bargaining with the vendors then to get some better deals. This made me happy!

Wood Boxes

Amazing what you can do with some old wood boxes, huh? Years ago I had a bunch old fruit boxes like these and they were so versatile. Had to move off and leave them in California, drat! This booth is Tarte.

Flags

Made by Melissa Neufeld...such a talent!

Lovliness

Chicken coop

Oh so cute...love chickens and was so drawn to this piece.

Coffee Grinder

I want one of these, but am not sure I can pay a high price...so I will wait and see what I can find. Plus I took this photo so I could come back to it, then forgot where it was. So it might have sold since I did not see it again. I did go around to the booths about three or four times each and saw different stuff each time. How does that happen?

Bought these!

Cute little buggers...not sure what I will do with them, but it will be fun!

Apothocary Jars

These looks great in this old cubbard.

Barn House Booth

Lovely warmth on one end of the Barn House Boys booth.

Me at Farm Chicks

The Farm Chicks had a photo op booth at the front entrance...great idea...me thinks! So here I am. Got a stranger to take this shot for me.
Loved the pennants with a message.

Momma and Her Boys

Her I am with my two sons, Tyler and Zach. Aren't they so handsome? I am proud to be ther momma. Both of my daughters are in Fairbanks today so they did not get to be with us. Maybe next year? Thanks for a nice afternoon, boys, and Tina too!

Olde Style Video

This movie camera belonged to my hubby's parents. It is one of the things that were left to us. I happen to collect old camera...so it now makes its home on top of an oak display case full of cameras. Nice addition, I think. It also came with the accessories pictured.
I have not been blogging much lately...like many others facebook has had me distracted. But I plan to give my poor blog attention from now on.
