Today I'm posting photos that I took at the
booths of the Rustique Divas
in Waterville, Washington last Saturday.
I love keys, so I really thought these necklaces were a neat idea.
I love it when something ordinary becomes pretty :)
Check out the lamp shade, too.
I love this chair.
Painted books.
Wind chimes
Look at this long lace banner
and that baby buggy.
I had a doll baby buggy like that when I was a little girl.
My Dear Aunt Jean was always giving me
hand-me-downs from her daughter.
They were the best hand-me-downs ever!
Thank you Aunt Jean:)
This was a sign on one of the booths.
Very creative, right!
Okay, these are adorable . . .
I'll be making some of these:)
They are like a corsage for your cowboy boots.
Very girly and pretty :)
Notice the fabric on this apron . . .
I will end my post with this vintage table cloth.
I hope that you enjoyed the tour.
That some of the items inspired you
either to get out and enjoy a Saturday Market,
or to try your hand at starting a new project.
Thanks for visiting
and please leave a comment.
Keep Smiling!
Your blogging sister,
Connie :)
I just adore those painted bell jars, such gorgeous colours :-)
ReplyDeleteThey are very pretty . . . even more on your table filled with sunflowers :)
DeleteI would have went crazy with the aprons and the windchimes. love the pictures.
ReplyDeleteThese ladies are so creative . . . so many fresh ideas :)
DeleteLots of different things there Connie.. something for everyone. I like the cowgirl boots..
ReplyDeleteSome of the painted chairs are real nice.

Wishing you a happy wednesday Connie..

Hi Val, I like those cowgirl boot corsages too. My friend and I were making some this morning. She made some for one of her daughters and granddaughters. I made three and gave one to my little niece. She wears cowgirl boots all the time :)
DeleteOh gosh...now I know what to do with a couple of pallets I have in the basement. Paint them like a flag, and use for decoration in the backyard. Lots of neat ideas!!
ReplyDeleteLouise
If you paint your pallets you will have to show us :) I saw one once that was painted with different colored stripes and polka dots and used by the back door to hold shoes. The toes where stuck into the slats and the shoes where held there in a very cute way.
DeleteVery inspiring - gorgoeus pictures!
ReplyDeleteIt is always fun to see what other creative women are making. I know that they have these shows to sell their crafts, but you cannot help but pick up a lot of ideas:)
DeleteThose are some talented crafters, thanks for sharing their booths. You got some great pictures, full of inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI know, after I left there my imagination was going wild with ideas :)
DeleteI enjoyed my visit with you! I could so curl up in that chair and read. And painted books? I had no idea. Super cool--especially the one with the fountain pen words on it. ~Pamela
ReplyDeleteI agree, that chair was a treasure, it looked like the perfect place to curl up and get cozy.
DeleteFun! The key necklaces are cute. That lampshade with the pink roses is adorable. I've never seen any like that. And, those painted (really?) books are so pretty! I love the pale blue ones. Looks like you had a good time and saw a lot of great stuff!
ReplyDeleteThose stacks of painted books would look so pretty in just about any room. We all have experienced rearranging a room and having a spot that just needs some little something to finish it off . . . I'm going to remember those painted books :)
DeleteWow! I would have loved to visit those booths. Some wonderful stuff there.
ReplyDeleteThere was so much to see . . . it was a great show:)
DeleteWhat an awesome show!! Lots of great goodies to see. Love all the photos you shared with all of us.

Hi Cindy, thank you . . . I am happy that you came to tour the show. These ladies were all so sweet and had so many wonderful crafts and antiques. It was a lovely day :)
DeleteThat would have been so much fun wandering around there looking at all that stuff. I love it all.
ReplyDeleteIt was a blast :)
DeleteVery pretty things, Connie! You must have had a good time shopping!
ReplyDeleteKathy, I hate to say this, but I didn't buy a thing. It would have been nice, but we are putting all of our extra money into our little cottage country home. It is a fixer upper and we want to have as much fixed this first year before winter set in as possible :) Then we can get back to a more normal way of spending. Right now it's fences, up-dated electric, graveling driveways, putting in new windows, counter tops, paint, plumbing etc.
DeleteEye candy! I am so glad that you took these for us to enjoy, Connie. You must have had a great time there.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Kathy M.
We went with our friends and neighbors, so it was not only a good day off, but a day spent with lovely people:)
DeleteThe weather looks like it was a perfect day to be outside. So nice to just get out and enjoy the sunshine with friends. Thank you for taking us along, Connie.
ReplyDeleteIt was a beautiful day and we enjoyed it with two of our best friends. It doesn't get much better than that:)
DeleteOh, so many pretty things and cool stuff to look at! Did you buy anything ~ or just get some inspiration? I will be back to blogging soon. :-)
ReplyDeletePicking up inspiration . . . it would have to be something very special for me to buy right now, because we have so much that needs doing on our new place, that it is taking up all of our spare money. Whoa! "Spare Money" sounds like an oxymoron these days, LOL.
DeleteWow! So many ideas in only one post! I'm wondering how the boot corsages would do in our rainy fall in Brittany, but I really love the idea!
ReplyDeleteGood point! They really aren't a thing to wear in rainy weather, are they:)
DeleteHi Connie, I've enjoyed going to your "vintage market"! Lord knows, I haven't been able to get out in these last months! What creative and beautiful items~~~the vintage sign was awesome! So many other pretties as well.....enjoyed seeing what ladies can create! Blessings~~~Roxie
ReplyDeleteHi Roxie, it always amazes me when I see some of the "junk to treasure" items. Like the key necklaces; somebody is really thinking outside the box:)
DeleteOh Connie, what fun, I love the camper apron and you did save the best for last, I love that table cloth!
ReplyDeleteCarol
Isn't that table cloth the best. It was on display and I don't think that it was for sale, but very cool:)
