Oh the pressure....

My first time vending at one of Kim's FAB events...what pressure, but I did it and it was a blast.....here are some PICS of some of the things on my vendor table. I made these cute messenger bags out of cream colored denim with a raw linen ruffle, vintage Alice prints and buttons and a hand painted flower to match. This Rabbit one was cute...(if I do say so myself)

This is the one first one I made for myself that gave me the inspiration to make more of them......In this pic you can see the jute webbing that I used for the strap.
This next one is one of the altered canvas totes that I have made in the past but this one is of course ALICE themed, the Cheshire Cat is a pocket! I handmade the taffeta flowers on these totes.

These next two are my favorites of the the Mad Hatter...the first is a messenger bag and the second one is an altered tote..he is just so stinkin cute!




This is a small sampling of some other things on my table, flower hair/pins, headbands and some necklaces and bracelets that I made and some I brought from my shop. Don't you love the Pink Flamingo... it was really fun decorating the table for this event.

These are the fingerless gloves that I made and they were a HIT! Alot of the ladies purchased them to wear to the Mad Hatter Tea Party, it was so fun.


And of course you had to have this nail polish set since you nails were showing...

And Last but not least....the mushroom pin cushions, I sold every one of them! A big thanks to Kim for giving me this opportunity and to all the ladies for your purchases and wonderful compliments....

An Affaire cont...

This is the cutest box that Candice put all of our supplies for our little book we made in. On top is a top hat that Val made for all of us full of special treats...THANKS VAL!
Just look at this cake...who would want to cut it? This was another special gift from Val , it took two people to carry it into the room..OH how I hated to see it get cut, but I must say I think it was one of the best cakes I have ever had, it jut melted in your mouth..YUMmmmmmmm

Sweet and Sassy girls Jessi and my roomie Cynthia posing in this frame "Through the looking glass" that Kim made for all of us to take pictures in. Just look at the flowers and the pink flamingo...I told you Kim left nothing out with this event.
Jessi and I in the "looking glass"

And of course no event would be complete without sweet Christine Rose Elle all decked out in her amazing outfit, wish you could really see all of the detail of this headpiece, it was truly a work of art!










What an Adventure......

I have been to alot of Kim's events...but I must say that this "Affaire in Wonderland" was OVER THE TOP !!!!! The room was decorated in all pink, black and white, with flowers and everywhere. I can even describe how awesome it was. Kim had made chairs back covers for all the chairs around the tea party table with the itinerary in the back pocket, and we got to keep these....


Just look at the table of treats we had at our Mad Hatter tea party. Everyone came dressed so cute and most of the ladies had on their white fingerless gloves (of which some I sold at my vendor table, more on that later) there were ruffles on dresses, hats and flowers in hair..so fun!


The table setting had these towers of tea cups and tea pots, and these beautiful chairs full of moss and pink flowers everywhere. My pictures don't even do this justice.



I did make these mushrooms that are displayed on the table and they were a hit, I did give one away along with a couple of other items from my vendor table as a give a way, and sweet Lonnie won it, I think she was happy.


After our tea party Candice taught us a cute little book that we made out of envelopes all full of Alice stamps, bright ribbons and flowers. I just finished mine and will get some PICS to post soon. Then we were off the see the new Alice in Wonderland movie, and it was amazing...ever been in a movie theatre with about 30 women ? Well lets just say we had a BLAST!
