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!

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!

Farm Chicks Favorite Vendor Displays

Honestly I didn't have much time to get out of the booth and wander around. I know there was some wonderful booths in the other bays, but I just didn't get over there much. These two booths I thought were fantastic. Kristin of Sophias was across for us. Her booth looked fabulous and wow did she ever sell a ton! Congratulations Kristin!

I can't find my vendor list so I don't even know who to give credit to for this booth. (I'll keep looking) It was located in the front of the middle bay near the Milk Truck! Anyway...isn't it cool! She focused on a wedding theme! Too cute! Our blog giveaway ends on Monday so be sure and enter with a comment!

More display pics tomorrow!

Farm Chicks~ The Trip Back Home

Yesterday was the big travel day back home. We were just to exhausted to make it all the way on Monday. After dealing with the truck (long story) and stopping at the bank to deposit our earnings...it was late in the day. We were only a half hour from Coeur d'Alene and decided to have lunch together before the rest of our group traveled on to Montana!

This is the Coeur d'Alene Resort. I've never stayed there, but it's a gorgeous building!

Karen and I in front of the Moose statue on Main Street!

We made it as far as Yakima WA and decided to crash for the night. Tuesday we wound our way home through every kind of terrain possible.

My favorite was the vast farmlands though. Here you can see a tiny bit of Mount Adams in the background of the beautiful valley. Just gorgeous!

Be sure and enter our Farm Chicks Blog Giveaway. Check back a couple of days for all the details. In the next few days we'll share more Farm Chicks pics and end with our Giveaway winner on Monday!

Farm Chicks~Favorites

We are on the road today...winding our way back home. Not sure if we'll make it by tonight or take a bit more time to enjoy the trip home and do a little visiting of family along the way. We'll see where the road takes us and touch bases when we get there. So be sure and leave a comment to be entered in our great blog giveaway!

But we had to share just a couple more pics from Farm Chicks. This was kind of funny...There are three bays in the fairground building and like we said in an earlier blog, we were swamped the first day of the show and hardly had time to even go to the bathroom, let alone get into either of the other rooms. We kept hearing announcements that said this or that was taking place at "the Cake". Finally we got to check it out and see this wonderful junk version of "the Cake! Wow...cool!

We also loved the Antique Carnation Delivery truck! It was such a fun display to greet customers as they came in the door! Just one more reason to love doing the Farm Chicks show. Be sure and leave a comment and you'll be entered in our great blog giveaway...a Farm Chicks Cookbook!

Farm Chicks Day Two~ Meet Our Friends

It was day two at Farm Chicks today...a bit slower pace when compared to the fast paced craziness of opening day! We had a little more time today to take turn getting out of the booth for a few minutes here and there. We managed to catch Serena...the owner and promoter of The Farm Chicks. She graciously signed our copy of her cookbook for our blog giveaway...woo hoo! We enjoyed visiting with her for a few minutes!

We also had the honor of meeting Jo Packham of Where Women Create! We have loved her magazine for years and it was really fun to have her sign our ad. What a great lady!

And finally but certainly not last, we were able to meet Cindy of Angel Heart Designs. She also belongs to the network Make Mine Pink! It was such a pleasure to meet all of you and we so enjoyed talking with each of you! Remember to leave a comment to be entered in our BLOG Giveaway! More Farm Chicks pics tomorrow!

Farm Chicks Giveaway!!!

Today was AWESOME! It was truly an amazing day! The line of customers waiting to get in the show was longer than ever before! Thankfully there was no rain today! We had such a fun time meeting and visiting with our customers! What a nice crowd!


Here is a pic of our booth and the "crowd"...so full you could hardly get around!


And a pic of what the isles! Like I said, "It was awesome"!
We did grab a few minutes late this afternoon to go by The Farm Chicks booth and see all Serena's goodies for sale. We own the first cookbook...love it and thought it would make a really special giveaway for this really special occasion! So we'll try to get Serena to sign it tomorrow too! Cool!!! We just know our winner will love The Farm Chicks In The Kitchen Cookbook too! All you have to do is leave us a comment, but we'd love for you to follow us or join our newsletter group too. Just let us know in your comment and you'll get an extra entree for doing so! We'll leave the contest open for several day so leaving a comment on any Farm Chick related blog counts! Good Luck!
