The Vendor Faire, more bella-ness

What was the highlight of Vendor night for me at Silver Bella? Baby Bella coming to help! Here she is trying on my apron that I foofed up for the Night of 100 Aprons.

She might have gotten a little bit of attention that night.  And loved it! She was telling everyone she saw "Hello Bella!" even Pop Pop Bella and Daddy Bella who were also there to help.

Having my family drive 3 hours to come and help was just amazing, and so sweet.  Have I mentioned lately that I am about as lucky as anyone can be?

The evening was a great success and such fun. Well, dur.  Everything about the entire weekend was nothing but fun.

  Carol was my neighbor again this year, but the way our booths  were facing, I didn't get to talk to her as much as last year.!

My booth looked even better with Jessi in it, she brightens up everything she goes near!

My best bud, Beth was just on the other side of the curtain from me, but we were too busy to hang out during the sale. I was so glad that she came up a day early so we could spend some time together.

 I think that my son, the massage therapist could have made more money than all of us put together if he'd had a chair set up! 

Of course, there is a TON of stuff left over!  I've started, slowly but surely to list some things in the shop.  There are a  few bottles of vintage Diamond Dust in the Boutique right now. 

And I am in the middle of hand dying and glittering more Christmas trees to list on Etsy.  The few trees that I had left from Silver Bella are in there now, but there will be another bunch coming soon. 

I'll leave you with some photos of the booth.  Its not as pretty as I'd like, there was an awful lot jammed into a small space!

So many people commented during the sale that this little vintage doll with dark hair looked like Jenn, that I had a friend sneak it into her room and place it on her pillow to surprise her.

Do you see the similarity?

Sugarwings has entered a new stage again, I think she has grown again. I adore the photo of the two of you, you both look so happy and you probably are at that moment, holding the most precious in the world in your arms, you'll never get bored with that (she will!). Your son should have done that, but I'm affraid that a lot of ladies spent their pocketmoney not on your vintage stuff, if he had done so!! Beth looks great in her apron too, I love how she manages to have a great apron, but still have her own style, mmm I should tell her that. Did you buy anything yourself? I think if I should ever go to Silver Bella I just need a vendor table to protect myself from buying too much!

Karla, you are indeed BLESSED ! I wish I could have been there, I have NEVER been to any of those classes or shows.
I hope someday, soon I'll get to go.
I know that when I do, I'll be walking around with my jaw on the floor, repeating oohs and aahs, and wows , all night long !
I have no craft buddies, out here in NOWHEREVILLE: "Ordway, Colorado". I feel like I'm in a GREEN ACRES MOVIE ! LOL !
So, I rely on my blog friends, like you, and others, to inspire me, and keep me going, and creating !
Everything, was G-L-O-R-I-O-U-S ! YOUR BOTH, THE LADIES APRONS, THE GLITTER LOUNGE, EVERYTHING, AND EVERYONE IS SO BEAUTIFUL, you are : "TRULY BLESSED INDEED" !
Little sugarwings, looks so happy, and precious, if I were you, I'd get that pic framed ! Take Care.
Love,
Deborah Woodrow

HELP HELP KARLA!!!! I have been trying, and trying to buy some diamond dust and a tree, and I keep entering in the correct information, but the computer won't take it!!! Help, I really want to order those two things - but need to figure out what I am doing wrong. And I used to have a Paypal account that I used one time, years ago, and I think I have that password wrong too........ but the VISA should count - help!!!!!!!
