The Vintage Whites Market

Good morning everyone!  I'm still reeling from Saturday's market.  It was incredible!  Amazing finds, great prices, awesome foods, and so many wonderful people to meet!  This is definitely what gives me energy.  I think I've found my dream job....

Friday night, I painted, sanded, sprayed, sewed, and loaded up a ton of stuff. Tanner helped me so much! He's such an awesome hubby!  I couldn't sleep, so I was up until 4:30 sewing flowers and pillows.  I thought about just staying up until 6 but....those 2 hours of sleep came in handy...

Saturday, after a big ol' bagel with cream cheese, I loaded up the last little bit of stuff and headed over to the market.  We still had a few last minute things to do.  We hung our banner, drove the truck out to the road for display and put on our cute aprons!  Vanessa's mom made her some bloomers and wow...I really want a pair!  They were SO cute!

We had an amazing photographer come out for an hour in the morning, her name is Jen Arterbury.  If anyone in Montana is looking for an awesome photographer, look her up!

She will have her pictures ready for us sometime this week, but I can't wait to show you pictures!  Here are a few that I snapped with my camera during the day.  Please spread the word about the VWM to anyone you know who would be interested in coming! If you are interested in being a vendor, our vendor form is available at the website.  Just click here! No booth fee, no long term commitment, convenient set up and clean up times, and pretty much the best location ever ;) 

I also want to thank Kristin from My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia, Karen from Sue Bees and Butterflies, and Maria from Dreamy Whites for featuring the market on their blogs.  I feel so happy to call you guys friends!  If anyone else posted about it and I didn't see, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!

We had people come from Wallace, ID.  That's about 3 hours from us!  They read our feature on Maria's blog Dreamy Whites!

They were such a sweet family!  So glad we got to meet them!

Sweet Notions, our resident baker/master sewer was a total hit with both the customers and those of us who had to sit right next to them.  Lets just say I spent some of my profit on cupcakes, brioche with nutella...and a cake....which I had for breakfast yesterday.  That's just how I roll. 

Our vendors brought so much wonderful merchandise!  We all made sure to shop first...of course ;)  Look what I found to add to my collection!

Aren't they adorable?!  I'm up to 6 now...I'm hoping to find enough to line my bathroom window with them like in Flea Market Style Magazine.  Figures....  They've got so many good ideas!

Vanessa redid this dresser.  Don't you just love the patina?!  I think the colors are so wonderful and coastal!  I wish I had a seaside cottage to put this in :)

Beautiful lampshades...

This is one of the pillows I made.  I will list it on Etsy today.  Currently, its on my couch ;)

Everyone brought all sorts of cool stuff!

These went really fast...and I helped ;)

And since I obviously have it in pictures, here's the finished product from this post...

Our radio cabinet is now a full wine bar!  Wine racks on the bottom, a drawer for glasses, and an upper cabinet for your linens, wine charms, etc.  I think it turned out beautiful! 

I'll save the rest of my pictures for another post when we get Jen's pictures back.  I am so excited about this, and if anyone that came is reading this...THANK YOU and see you June 19th!
