Twice the shows equals…..
Twice the fun, and twice the piccies to share with you……
First is how my booth looked at the Craftacular in Madison……..my friend Mindy helped me out, that’s her in the piccie (thank you Mindy) and we had a great time at the show…. thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth and gave critters homes and made us feel so welcome. Every year I am blown away at the support of the organisers, shoppers and the other vendors it really is my favorite show and I consider myself very fortunate to take part in it.
Meanwhile in Chicago
Markie was setting up at the Bucktown Bazzar……..Markie is vey competative, so he was sending me emails along the lines of “my booth look better than your booth” of course he was wrong, but I could tell he was having a great time in Bucktown when he sent me a piccie of Marty’s new dad
So the other great thing about twice the shows…………
Twice the goodies.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the stuff I bought and traded……….see that giant pink ruffle puffball ornament how awesome is that? It’s made by Sarah Lopez and I kick myself I didn’t pick up a card from her, the earrings are by lula and deedee I love how her work is made by reusing the beads from vintage jewelery and making them fresh and funky again (they are also some of the nicest people you will ever meet). The photo blocks are by Stella Lily and they speak for themselves so pretty, The bike t-shirt I got for Markie to thank him for doing the Bucktown show unaided it’s from baretree apparel and he loved it. I also got the most beautiful hand made glass necklace from Doug Prell Glass………it’s so pretty and completely unique.
So this Saturday I will be at The Congress Park Vendor Fair between 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m at Congress Park Elementary School, 9311 Shields Ave, Brookfield, IL 60513
So if you are in the area please come on over and wish the critters Happy Holidays………
