more thoughts (and photos!) from Farm Chicks 2011

Thought I would show you a little bit of "behind the scenes..." just a little glimpse into what goes on when we set up for a show like Farm Chicks....
Note the look of puzzlement on my face...also note lots of folk standing around with similar attitudes.."Hmmmm.....how does all of this fit in our space....?"



This is how we start creating our "style" ...and each time, each show, we must find a way to make so many fun and curious pieces work together to give a unique look...it has to be fresh and new each time....
                                           "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!"


and this is the finished product....VOILA!!!!






we are having so much fun creating over here...see the apron?  That is a "new" item for us...made from swiss grain sacks from the 1940's...each one is as unique as the sack it comes from...I wear mine all the time...in the garden, while I am setting up (and selling) in my booth....of course, cooking!   They range in price from $45 to $65, depending on the material used...burlap, hemp, linen....
and the ribbon necklaces...see the horses?   (one of my favourite things....you can always find something horsey in our booth....

Again, as always, we will be joining our friends for white wednesdays...vintage inspiration fridays...and.....?
until my next post...thank you for looking in....
