Conifer Newcomers and Neighbors

This week, I am doing the Conifer Newcomers and Neighbors Holiday Bazaar at Conifer High School.  This is the first show that I did 19 years ago.  It is my best ever one day sales and I have developed a following there.  The week has been busy with errands, doctor's appt, and making and packing for my show.  My grand, Skylar, is helping me.  She is a junior there and president of the National Honor Society which is volunteering to help this year.  I am very excited to see old friends and make new ones!

A couple of things that I have been working on this week are centerpieces.  They have sold like crazy.  And they are so much fun to make out of repurposed items.  Now, I warn you that these pics aren't very good because I actually packed them away for the show before I remembered to photograph them.  So these were taken in the van!

Another thing that I finished up was a Raggedy Andy that was special ordered.  This very sweet lady bought one of my Annies for her newborn granddaughter and wanted an Andy for her grandson.

So set up is tonight and the show is tomorrow.  If you want a nice drive, come on up the hill and see me.  Can't make it?  I will be at Grandmother's House Boutique at Tagawa Gardens, Parker and Arapahoe Roads Tuesday thru Saturday next week.  Get that holiday shopping started!

Another show on the horizon!

Hello, my peeps!  Hope you are having a great week.  It has been unseasonably warm here in the Rockies....but I am NOT complaining.  I am in no hurry for our perpetual winter to begin.  Especially when I am so busy right now.

I am nearly loaded and ready to go for my next show, Applewood Arts in Westminster at Standley Lake High School.  This is my first year for this particular location but I attended two of the Applewood shows last year and loved them.  What a selection!  So if you are here locally, come by and get a jump on your holiday shopping.

They have a couple of other shows coming up as well and I will be at the Loveland show.  I have some new holiday decor items, treats, a variety of stocking stuffers and ornaments.  I'd love to see you!

Last Saturday, hubs and I went to Cheyenne for my five year old grand's birthday.  Addyson is quite the princess!  I loved seeing the joy on her face!

Monday, my sister rode with me to go back to Cheyenne to take inventory to a show.  I have been doing Christmas in the Country for about five years now.  It is amazing.  If you have the opportunity, take a drive out to see Betty.  Here is their facebook page:

Betty and her husband move out of their two story log home and into their basement for the show's duration to allow shoppers to find treasures in every room.  The show begins November 3 and lasts until the 13th.  There is an old school house on the corner that has recently been remodeled.  Lunch is served there and sale merchandise is also found inside.  Make a day of it!

Tuesday, my little Westies went to the groomer and I had breakfast with my grandson, Quest.  They are white dogs again!

So, my pals, I am off to get some laundry done, catch up on some emails, and pay some bills......nah....I think I'll go to the studio.  lol
