Farm Chick Favorites

Here's a few more pic from Farm Chicks. There are so many wonderful booths and displays. But it's such a great sale, that we don't have much time to get out of our booth.

We loved Lisa Souers new silo! I love how her jewelry looks hanging around the edge.

This was an awesome booth.

Vintage Market always does a great job...love their booth!

I don't know what I would do with this, but I LOVE IT! Funky Junk Jen's booth was sooo cool!

Thanks for a great show Serena! We just love being part of your amazing show!

We are having a special Farm Chicks promotion on our website this weekend so we'll keep the giveaway open through the first of next week so be sure and leave a comment to enter.

More Farm Chicks

Sorry for the delay in posting more Farm Chick pics....I had a wedding this weekend! It was at a barn and it turned out awesome! I promise to post some pic of my weddings latter!

One of the things I love about The Farm Chicks Show is how amazing the booths are...truly over the top! See for yourselves!
This year there were quite a few booth that used these cool vintage letters to spell out their business names. Soooo cool!

Another thing that I love about doing Farm Chicks is the friendships that are made. Everyone is so nice and it's such a pleasure to get to know such wonderful people.

We often bump into Lisa of A Thing For Roses while we are out junking and at other shows. Isn't her booth awesome! Her sidekick Isabelle does an amazing job with her booth too. Unfortunately I didn't get a pic this year.

This Linda and Dixies booth of Junk Salvation! We participated in their show in May and became fast friends. Awesome booth ladies!

Don't forget to enter our blog giveaway. The winner will receive a signed copy of Serena's Farm Chicks Christmas book! Just leave a comment or add yourself to one of our follow lists. Easy cheesy! More pics tomorrow!

Farm Chick Fabulous Sites

What a Fabulous day at Farm Chicks! We loved visiting with returning and new customers all day...definitely one of our favorite things about doing shows! It's like old friends coming together again which help makes this show such a special one. It's almost a festival atmosphere with attendees and vendors dressing in their fun and fancy from boots to ruffles! Here are a few of our favorites today:

We love these customers and their darling apron! Thanks for shopping with us ladies!

What a little cutie!

This little guys was zipping around the show in his vintage scooter.

We also love the over the top displays! Here are just a few....more to come latter. (we were so busy today I didn't get many photos taken)

These ladies are our neighbors...what a cool booth!

We've enjoyed getting to know these vendors from Today's Country Store. Their booth is to die for!

We'll be packing and loading tomorrow night and traveling home on Monday so we'll try to squeeze blogging in when we can. Stay tuned for our GIVEAWAY DETAILS. Leaving a comment or following us will automatically enter you in our contest. You might be the winner!

Farm Chicks Set Up Day

We arrived at the Fairground bright and early and excited to get the truck unloaded and start setting up our booth. It' so fun to see the transformation happen! It goes from this....


to this...a pile of product and props! The presorting that we did last week sure helps us get things unloaded in the general area that they go. It's organized chaos!


Slowly over the course of the day, our displays start to take shape! So the piles of tubs and props turns into this:

Our Vintage Laundry Display( with our old Bloomer aprons hanging overhead so everyone can find us!)

Our Rustic Garden Display

Couldn't resist snapping a few pics in the parking lot! It's so fun to see what the other vendors bring! We are so excited for the show tomorrow and wish everyone a great show! Come by and see us!


ANNOUNCING OUR ANNUAL FARM CHICKS GIVEAWAY! We have picked a great prize and will be posting it here soon. So in the mean time, leave us a comment, Google Follow and Facebook Follows are each good for one entree. The contest will run for a while and you can enter multiple time! All the details will be posted soon. Thanks for stopping by!
