The Greatest Show On Earth!!


I love doing The Farm Chicks show!! Every year as I drive to the fairgrounds I think how lucky we are to be able to participate in this show. We are so thankful for that opportunity. We have been vendors at the show for the past four years and every time I first see this sign announcing The Farm Chicks I get goose bumps and then the tears follow. Really. Silly I know, but it is so awesome to be a part of it. People come from all over the world to attend the show.


These ladies (sorry, I don't know their names) came prepared to wait in line. They are devoted Farm Chick fans. We love ya'll!!

A little corner of our booth and our home away from home for two days. We spent many long hours cleaning, painting, sanding, stapling, gluing and glittering. We stayed up late, very late, finishing our projects.

These lovely ladies are sisters who drove from Salt Lake City, Utah just to come to The Farm Chicks show. We had so much fun getting to know them. We had to take a picture of them with the Pink Lady they bought from us. I hope we see them next year!

Cute red boots, huh??!! The lady that bought these from us wanted to try them on, but didn't have socks and they were hard to get on. I suggested she put one of our sweet pink bags on each foot and then her feet should slide right in those boots. And slide they did, they felt so good she wanted to wear them, so off she went boot heels clicking on the concrete floor and pink ruffles of plastic flowing out the top each boot. We do whatever it takes to make a Farm Chick Girl happy!!

The best show on earth!!!


This is our booth. I wanted to take an after picture, but was so busy I forgot.


It has been nearly a week since The Farm Chick Show, and we are still talking about how wonderfully amazing it was! This year was our third year to be a vendor in the show, and by far our best yet! On Sunday, Serena announced that over 4,300 people came through the doors on Saturday, but it sure seemed like 5 million to us. The show opened at 10:00,and by the time I had the chance to look at my phone to see what time it was it was 3:30. Kathy and I didn't have much time to shop or to get very many pictures of the show this year, but we wanted to share with you what we did manage to get.

I stand all amazed at the creativeness of Krys from Hutch Studio. She made her booth from cardboard. Yes, you read that right, from cardboard. I know, crazy, right?!!! What talent that lady has. She sews the most adorable little bunnies, birds and bears, she paints and I'm sure has a multitude of other talents. You know, when you give a person a piece of fabric or piece of paper and a brush you expect something creative to come from it...but cardboard??? It was truly awesome....great job Krys!!!






These lovely ladies were from the Seattle area. Every girl needs a crown!














The after show party on Saturday night was over the top! The food was scrumptious! Oh, and the desserts, there were so many to choose from what is a girl to do but try them all! The party was held at Chaps/Cake, if you have not been there, I would highly recommend it! Overall the show was a success once again! A huge thank you to Serena for all your hard work!

A little peek and the winner...


First of all I have to apologize for not posting sooner, and not revealing the winner of our giveaway. We have been so busy getting ready for Farm Chicks that I completely forgot! The winner is..... Shari French of Southern Charm!!! YAY Shari!

O.k. now a little peek at a few of the things we will have at the show this weekend. Some very fun finds are piling up around here waiting for you to give them a good home. We will be in bay 1 booth 101.

Cute stool that Kathy made!

Another coat of paint and some chic knobs and she will be done!

Rain rain go away! I think that if Mother Nature realized how absolutely wonderful Farm Chicks was she just might cooperate with us and save the rain for another day! I really am thankful for the rain and all the beauty it brings, but it is really hard to get furniture painted when it is raining!

We will give you another little peek tomorrow, but for now
back to work, see ya at the show!
