Handmade Roses

Thes



Here are the roses I made all finished! They were dipped in Vintage Silver German glass glitter and the stems have vintage sheet music and seam binding. Put these in my space at the shop. Hope you like them :)

Paper Roses





I have been obsessed with paper flowers lately. So, after much trial and (lot's) of errors I made these, they will be dipped in Silver German glass glitter (sigh) and put in my booth for sale. I am going to make black ones for Halloween, and also in fall colors. :)

Dress form from Scratch






Well, since the Flea market I've had a few requests for Dress forms like Cupcake. I said "Sure no problem" thinking I could order one off the internet and customize it. Well, sadly that wasn't the case. So, what's a girl to do (especially a crafty girl lol) , but improvise. So I built this dress form off the one i had, and i am so pleased with the results! These will be something that i will offer in my space @ "The Chic Boutique" once a month. I am so excited about this because we all know , that Dress forms are hard to come by (that are cute anyway).

Rockin' Flea Market






Here is my booth at the flea market, woke up late (set my alarm for 4:30 in the afternoon oops) . My son and I had 45 min. to load the truck , take showers, etc. Needless to say we made it in time to unload and set up , but sadly a lot of my projects just didn't make it to the Flea. The whole point of this was to learn and hopefully prepare for bigger events in the future. Thank you to all my wonderful friends who came out and supported my booth!!! You guys are "Priceless". Well in the end got some wonderful reviews asked to participate in local Farmers market held weekly and made a pretty tidy sum (which I paid part to my son ) . Next time will be even better!!! Have a great week everyone :D
