If you're looking to start a new tradition with your family, I highly suggest visiting Christmas Town at the Creation Museum in Pertersburg KY. My family and I enjoyed a wonderful evening of lights, live drama, a "Bethlehem" market and so much more.
Christmas Town officially begins December 10th!

Artful, Unqiue and Whimsical: That's how I'd describe the Autumn Petite Retreat Show on Camano Island, WA. My friend Rebecca and I spent a lovely day together, meeting lovely people and looking at gorgeous things.
My Mothers Buttons had so many fabulous items, it was difficult to know where to look... shiny things kept catching my eye.
Have you ever seen a more beautiful horse bridle?
My Mother's Buttons creates one of a kind jewelry made with antique buttons and bridle rosettes from the Victorian and Edwardian era.
So detailed and special. Speaking of special, Deb and Bob Kennedy from Retreat come up with the most fun and pretty ideas.
Like this "Witches Hat" mirror. Wait, that witch looks familiar.
The Kennedys always have a fresh point of view.
From the smallest spice jar...
To a fresh take on a piano. Those are wine bottles in there!
Deb made a bunch of these darling pumpkins...
The barn was packed with fabulous things.
And of course Deb matched her decor perfectly.
Garden Party had a floral inspired point of view...
There were plenty of vintage treasures.
And this dress which I'm pretty sure was created out of crepe paper!
I had a hard time resisting this phone.
Rose-Marie had so many things to see...
Like these Bakelite utensils
And these vintage skates.
But the really amazing thing about Rose-Marie is the talented woman behind it-- Jo Marie Richman
She makes all these beautiful skirts for ladies and girls
And aprons like this one modeled by Rebecca
See the background behind her?
Rebecca and I
That's where photographer Elise Liptack of Elise Marie Photography was snapping photos of folks at the show. Elise has a magical way of taking pictures and capturing the personality of her subjects. I'm so inspired by her work.
The Vendors
Deb taught a class on how to make these lovelies
Have a beautiful day! Hugs, Malia
Hello Vintage Indie Readers!
I got to attend a fun little show last weekend and take oodles of photos that I'd love to share with you. The No. 123 Rue de Park Lane Event took place on a sunny Saturday in Kirkland, WA. The lane was shut down to cars and filled with fantastic booths instead.
So much creativity
These tiny chairs are created out of champagne corks by Cindy
Sheri from Designer Junk Finder

A clever blackboard, fluffy pillows and cute place setting from My Sweet Savannah
Lots of pretty stuff from Tippy Stockton
Thanks for letting me share a bit from the show. What did I buy? Well I was busy snapping photos but couldn't resist this tiny china set. I'd say it's for my little girl but the truth is we're sharing it.
Thanks VI readers! Visit me any day over at my blog Yesterday on Tuesday.

Kindred Roses had a whimsical spin on vintage-- so fun

Hope you are enjoying the eye candy. I know I am!
For years I
have been making the five hour drive from Seattle to The Farm Chicks Show in
Spokane, Washington. As soon as I would
leave the show on Sunday, I was planning my trip for the next year. There was something about going there that
had me on a Farm Chicks high for weeks afterwards. I was inspired to try
something new, anxious to see my new friends that I had met there, and jonesing
for more blog updates. It was crazy! My husband would be so sick of listening
to me go on and on about The Farm Chicks show that eventually he was happy to see
me leave on some other junkin adventure… for as long as I wanted to be gone.
Last summer,
after attending The Farm Chicks show, I was having cocktails with friends and
spreading the Farm Chicks word. When all
at once my friends started saying “I
want to go” “let me know and I’ll go with.”
Then I started talking with more people about Farm Chicks and everyone
wanted to go. So I thought “what if we
take a bus full of new Farm Chick followers?”
So Come Junk With Us was
born!
This year’s show
was the first time I had organized that many people for 3 days. I was
responsible for them having a good time, making sure they had everything they
needed and getting all their treasures home safely. This was a different show for me now. I
didn’t leave with the same Farm Chicks high as I usually did. This year it was more like a Farm Chicks
hangover.
It’s been a
couple weeks now, and I’m starting to get my Farm Chicks high. I know you’re sitting there thinking “why
now?”
I have
figured out what it is about the Farm Chicks that gets me all “preachin the
word” afterwards………..
It’s not the
fabulous displays of goods by some of the most talented vendors that travel
from all over, and it’s not buying a “one of a kind” item. It’s the friendships that are made. It’s
seeing my friends become friends with people they just met. It’s seeing what evolves from those
meetings. Art retreats are formed,
smaller shows are put together, business partners are made and the bringing
together of people who have the same passion, love and artistic sole for
junkin. This is what I love about Farm
Chicks!
Cindy and Ginny
Cindy and Ginny ended up introducing me to a few ladies that I soon will be working with on a little project. I’m so excited about this project.
Donna and Shanon sharing a dessert.
Kay and Julie chatting. They knew each other from years ago, but had lost touch with each other and just happen to meet up again on the bus.
New friends Jill and Stephanie from Canada.
Even my Dad got sucked in to the whole experience of Farm Chicks. He’s still talking about what a neat lady Antonya was.
This was T R O U B L E! These three clicked as friends before we even left the parking lot in Seattle. On the way home I heard them making plans to get their families together and spend a weekend at Coastal Nest in Pacific Beach, Washington.
More friends pictures
Two of my very favorite ladies Michele and Charity………. Are now friends.
Elaine of Tinker Verve and I have really only talked on the phone and through email. It was fun to spend some time with this very special talented woman. She and I will be attending The Creative Connection Event together in September along with Amber from Tres Birds Photography.
Me with Gladys and Celia of June Bug. I met these
ladies last year and when I decided to plan a trip to Farm Chicks for 30 of my
new friends I knew immediately these ladies where who I needed to get to help
in planning my trip to Farm Chicks. I
was soooooooooo right!
One of my most very favorite ladies. We met at Farm Chicks 3 years ago. Joy is someone who inspired me, always told me to be me, and to do what I love.
If you have never met Joy of Auntie Joy , you need to make sure you do next time you have the opportunity.
Deb of Retreat Design is another talented woman who I met through Farm Chicks and blogging. She has been a source of encouragement, help, and just giving me an ear when I need one.
There is a reason Cindy of The Queen of Tarte and I live 5 hours away from each other. We knew when we met that The Junkin Gods would prefer to keep us separated. We don’t get to see each other very often but when we do we have a lot of fun.
This is Kal of Keeping it Bella. She and I became very good friends 3 years ago at Farm Chicks over the purchase of a shopping cart from Lisa at A Thing For Roses. I bought it, she wanted it, I let her admire it. We ended keeping in touch from that day on and have become very good friends. I also became very good friends with Lisa who sold me that shopping cart.
These were all my peeps!
It’s been fun for me over the last couple weeks to see them become friends on Facebook, asking me for contact information for one another, contacting me about projects, and of course, just seeing this group of strangers now great friends.
Here ‘s to you Farm Chicks Show!
The lines were long, it was crowded, you may have not got what you wanted as far as fabulous junk, BUT……… we left with something more valuable than you can put a price on……. Friendship!
Thank you to Tres Birds Photography for the great pictures
Park Lane Hotel vintage sign saying 'Farm Chicks Show'
The Farm Chicks Antique Show is more than just a great place for thousands of attendees to gather from across the nation... it's also the favorite venue for many dealers who come from near and far every June for the show!
150 of the best dealers of antiques, vintage, vintage-style, and handmade goods participate in the show, and most of them will tell you it is their favorite show to come to. How can you NOT love a show that is all about the details? Three years ago, vendors arrived to find boxed cupcakes in every space. This year, Celeste from the legendary CHAPS Restaurant built a giant cake from junk to celebrate the opening of her new business - aptly named 'CAKE' (What else?!). She served the most decadent devils' food cakes to every vendor on Friday during setup... a sugar rush that was most definitely appreciated by over 200 people working like mad all day.
The decadent chocolate cakes that Celeste served to
the vendors today!
When that door opens at 10 AM on Saturday, the thousands of guests who come to the show know that their experience at Farm Chicks is just beginning... for vendors, that's the finish line! Saturday and Sunday are days to visit, share, inspire, and make new friends as we sell our wares. The energy of the show affects everyone present, and though Sunday afternoon will find us all exhausted, both vendors and attendees alike will be thrilled with their special finds, new friends, and wonderful memories of another successful show. You really can't ask for more!
Here are a few swanky events going on this weekend! If you attend and would like to report for Vintage Indie, (snap some photos/videos, talk to vendors or just have fun shopping) let me know! We'd love to have you!

This weekend marks Johanna Parker's 7th annual Holiday Folk Art Show and Open House in Lakewood Colorado December 5th & 6th. During this open house you'll have an opportunity to see original works of Johanna's vintage-style folk art, as well as peek into her charming 1930's cottage-style home.
Vintage and art what more could you ask for! Johanna's work doesn't need very much explaining, she's known as a designer for both Bethany Lowe Designs and Primitives by Kathy. She'll be featuring those reproductions for sale during her open house.
Snowmen Originals
The open house is open to all of Johanna's supportive collectors and friends that are on her e-mail list. Once you sign up for the list, you'll receive details, address information and show times. You don't have to RSVP, but you will need to be on this mailing list or request to be included in order to get the full details.
These shoppers were among the first to arrive at the 2008 open house.
Above is a fun holiday spray in vase featuring vintage aluminum tree branches, glass ornies and her reproduction belsnickels.
While you are shopping Johanna and her husband serve up delicious hot cider on their vintage stove as well as special treats for their guests.
I asked Johanna what her inspiration was for her decorating style in her delightful kitchen.
I love the style and color of the 30s and 40s. and am attracted to vintage, Art Deco motifs. Our 1939 house has really inspire me to decorate this way with its unique charm. The bright cheerful color palette of the old pottery designs and vintage floral fabrics from that era have also inspired me too!.... Beyond that, family antiques and nicknacks have been passed down to me from that era that helped build my interest and fascination for this style. My art is certainly inspired by this vintage look as well and blends well with all the old stuff I love to collect.
Items for sale will include Johanna's signed
reproductions offered through both Primitives by Kathy and Bethany Lowe
Designs. Collectible ornaments, candy bowls, Santa figurines,
and illustrated notepads are just a few of the delights. Each year,
Johanna also creates a winter collection of one of a kind folk art pieces for Christmas which are also available to collectors.
