The Lord was sweet
and blessed us with a beautiful sunny day.
For our first Artists' Market event.
See the gal in the coral tee shirt,
well that is Karyll and she restores furniture
in delightfully happy colors.
Her booth was wonderful.
I purchased a round drop-leaf table from her
before the market opened.
That's the perks of having a booth:)
Here are some more of her projects.
I just love the colors she chooses :)
(This is the little table I purchased)
Here are even more . . .
Don't you love that little red corner table?
I sure do . . . her "re-does" make me smile:)
This is Sharon she is a sculpturest,
and uses nature as her muse.
I wish that I had gotten better photos of some of her work,
The next time I do the market I will :)
She also brought some quilting work
done by one of her friends,
who goes by the name of Shady Lady :)
These were made by Sue.
I thought that I had a photo of Sue,
but she must have dodged the camera.
Her scarves are awesome.
Don't you love all the cheerful colors?
This is Kris. She was our delightful hostess
and provided her charming country home for our sale.
Kris is a potter and her clay pots are amazing.
This is Elissa she is a delightful young woman,
who dries flowers and other things of nature,
including those long whips of kelp that wash up on the oceans beaches.
She dries them and turns them into awesome wreaths.
It was a fun filled day and we had a lovely turn out.
For any of you that live near by,
(or if you live on the rainy side of the state
and are seeking sunshine)

Artist's Market will be scheduled for

Your blogging sister,
Oh how I wished I lived closer. So many of those goodies would look perfect on the barge. I'm glad you had. Good day. Enjoy your week xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Fran, it is going to be so much fun decorating your barge and making it cozy. I can not wait to see finished photos. I'm sure that you are planing a great "barge warming" party:) Gypsy Rose is coming along we are going to try installing the new winch and cable today. Then it's time to set up the mast and see if there is any hardware that needs replacing. We are beginning to get anxious to get out on the water and have some fun:)
DeleteHave a wonderful week . . .Connie
It looks like you had great weather, Connie! Love seeing all the booths. I love those leaf sculptures.
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, I know, Sharon's sculptures are beuitful, I feel bad that I didn't get some close-ups of her fish; they are awesome:)
DeleteLooks like it was a great day! glad I couldn't go as I would have spent too much money! x

The scarves that Sue made, my favorite is the light green one.
ReplyDeleteHi Ginny it was a great day for our Artists' Market. The weather was wonderful, it did get up in the high 80's but there was a lovely little breeze, all day:) These gals are all so talented, it was my pleasure to be a part of their group.
