April's AFTER, TA-DA

 Well folks, here she is! I am usually not a girly-girl but I had a lot of fun making this camper girly. With a little paint, some TLC, elbow grease and a couple of decorations I am smitten with the results. She will be all set up and for sale at the Red Barn Farms Fall Festival in Colton, WA, October 13th and 14th.

Thrifting in Spokane

 A few days ago, I listed my dining set for sale on facebook and a good friend of mine, Windie, bought it. I decided to deliver it to Cheney for her so that I would have an excuse to go shopping. I was so excited to visit all of my favorite thrift stores and a few new ones I had never been to. I wanted to go to PINK, which is a newer store downtown, but they were closed, sad day.  My next stop was at ROOST, on main, and I saw tons of things I loved. #1 Painted chandelier light fixtures- the brighter the color, the better they are!, #2 The adorable barn pillow-if I had a little boys room, this would be in it and #3 A wall of corrugated metal-I have been wanting to do this in our house for sooo long.  My next stop was to the International District on Sprague, where they gave me this handy-dandy little map. I found a store I had never been to and was so pleased...Vintage Warehouse! They had everything from vintage clothes to over sized neon letters (and very affordable). I proceeded to hit up a few more thrift stores and then finished the day off with a mini Cinabon, um mm!





Here are a few of the treasures I picked up to makeover; orange chair, chandelier, two matching lamps with crystals (they desperately need new shades), mirror, and not pictured is my favorite purchase, a fake tinsel log fireplace-the orange light bulb gives off such a warm glow...hahaha

FARM CHICKS: PART 2

Here are some pictures of other booths that I just LOVED!  As you can probably tell from the pictures, put a plant in anything and I am sold! Garden Party had an amazing set-up, very botanical and dreamy.  The one thing that I loved and am mad I didn't get a picture of is Funky Junk's pick-up bed shelf, but I did snag me a t-shirt with a vintage camper on it.


Black, White, Yellow...Looking good ROOST...Love their store!

This is a table my husband wanted me to buy but we missed out, sad.

LOVE the bike sign

The Farm Chicks 2012

BU2ful and Farmhouse Charm had an AMAZING time at The Farm Chicks Show in Spokane, WA this past weekend!

I have never seen so many people in my life, the crowd was record breaking on Saturday with over 6,000 shoppers walking through the doors!

Our booth # ended up being 79 93 (sorry about that), a BIG thank you to all of our friends and family who stopped by to say hi.  We were also blessed to have amazing neighbors ( http://www.forgetmenotdreams.blogspot.com/ )beside and across from us. Here are a few snaps of our booth, we had to remodel on the second day and I ended up liking the bike display the best.

Farm Chicks...Here We Come!!!

I pulled a sneaky, sneaky little move and applied to the Farm Chicks Antique Show in Spokane without telling my buddy, Elaine, and guess what, WE GOT IN!!!  So excited, we have been many times and have always thought about having a booth, well now we do.  I hope everyone can come see us and support the show. http://thefarmchicks.com/show.html
