Farm Chicks or bust!!

The day is more than half way gone and my list of things to finish before taking off tomorrow at 5 a.m. is truly insane!! Not to mention I still have to do laundry and drive kids to soccer and gymnastics practice.... Oh, and we have been blessed with a heat wave!! Lisa and I took some time this morning to go pretty up our feet. It was such a nice break! As promised, here are some photos of some of the things I've been working on. I will take lots of pictures at the show so I can share with you upon my return on Monday!! Wish me luck!!























Vintage wallpaper decoupage suitcases




I have finally made adjustable cart liners so they can be sold separately.





















Timeless pillows























Barkcloth porch pillow











Parasol made of old umbrella frame and round tablecloth
















Silver teapot lamps and shades






















Totebags























Pink stripe silk pillow





























Decoupage half mannequin

See you soon! I'll miss you!

    Such fantastic things! I do hope you don't mind if I pinch an idea or two for ideas around my cottage! I do so wish we lived nearer to each other, and I could come along to play!

    Isabel,
    I am so impressed and in total awe of your skills! I love, love, triple love your pillows. You do know there will be copycats all over blogland by tomorrow, but I know where I saw them first. I would really like to talk to you about purchasing some of them.
    I am crazy about the umbrella as well!!! If you bring anything home, I am going to be in shock.
    Have fun!!!

    I can't wait to see all your pretties in person....We decided since we have missed all the Oregon shows, we HAD to go to FarmChicks!! We leave Sisters at 5am too. Teen daughter, Holly and I need a girls weekend away really bad and what could be a better destination for vintage loving artsy gals??! We are making badges to wear so we can join in with the bloggers fun. Have a safe trip and we will see you there!

    this is such a wonderful blog; so inspirational. I have been wanting to "recover" a suitcase for awhile now ans i have just the right one. I dont how is best to do it but I have some ideas. Hopefully it will come out as beautiful as yours.

    HI! Quick question - Couldn't find you at Farm Chicks (no one could tell me which booth to go to) & wondered if you had any of the adjustable Cart Liners available for sale? I was so excited to get one there but couldn't find a liner! Thanks so much, Marilyn (te_mk@comcast.net)
