The show is pust on by the Funky Junk Sisters and sponsered by Ritters Nursery here in Spokane - next Saturday - One day only from 9 to 4. You have to come by and visit. There are going to be great vendors from the area and from other parts of the great state of Washington, vintage trailers and best of all - great people.

You can use this for a dollar off each admission. Print as many off as you like and pass them around to your girlies - they will think you are the bomb.

Rustic Elegance Show Pictures. Junk Salvation here we come.

It takes a huge amount of work to get ready to a show. Painting, picking, cleaning, pricing and then loading, unloading, displaying and then repeat.
I do love the shows though. I get to meet other great vendors, customers, get some inspiration and taste great foods.
We did a smaller, new show this weekend in a gorgeous place and had a great time. I will leave you with some pics.
We are getting ready for another new to the area show. Junk Salvation in Coeur d'Alene, Id.

I'm Dreaming of a Pink Christmas!! White Christmas??

Happy Thanksgiving to all. I would love to show you pictures of our wonderful feast and the people that we shared it with but I was not quick enough to capture pictures of our mountain of food....and let's face it, pictures of people sleeping with their pants unbuttoned.... is well, just not appetizing.
It has been snowing here all day. It feels more like Christmas than Thanksgiving.
Unfortunently, you can't see how pretty the snow is in the light - it glitters.
Mother Nature is certainly going to give us a White Christmas here in Spokane.

I decided to do a bit of crafting in this chilly weather - 13 below last night.
I love glitter - not a secret. I found a lovely snowman that needed a little lift, so out came some of goodies and I dressed her and her little gal - yes, I made her into a Snow Lady - She is ready for Black Friday Shopping.


I don't think that it necessarily has to be a white Christmas only - do you?


Stop by the store on Black Friday. It is warm inside with lots of Christmas gifts and decor. We also will have drinks to warm you up and goodies to keep your shopping energy up.

I have a set of two of these chairs. I am not quite done with recovering them but they should be available in a day or so.
Do you think I should stencil them?

Farm Chicks and All that Glitter

Just got back from the All that Glitter open house. I have never actually gotten inside of this little shop but have longingly peered through the windows many times. It did not disappoint. The entire place, although smaller is impeccably decorated with to die for goodies. There are beautiful vignettes and original, handmade treasures everywhere you look. I was amazed at the detail and the, well, glitter. Anyone that knows me knows I love me some glitter. I have almost crashed my car looking at my engagement ring in the sunshine.
That being said, these ladies did not disappoint - even glittering cookies.


There were dreamy Christmas ideas and gifts as well.
I also got to meet Serena from Farm Chicks fame. I came around a display and she smiled her great smile and I acted like I just met the queen. ...well, the queen of junk anyway. She was very gracious and allowed me to snap a picture with her.

I immediately fled the scene. A small scene, but a scene never the less. I was excited to finally get to meet Serena in person. After retrieving my MAN from the car - you would think after 10 years he would be used to my embarrassing antics - we went and visited the festively decorated This Old House.
They also had gorgeous displays and great treats.

Both shops will be open tomorrow and have wonderful selections of Seasonal Decor and Gift Ideas.
After checking them out - come by and see what we have in store at Orphaned Decor.

Happy Holidays Girls!
