Hello Friends!

Market Days was a success!

I had so much fun feeling like a store owner in the most charming store in town.....I was surrounded by the most eccentric people....and I sold out of almost everything!

The only regret that I have is that I did not take one picture!!!

I can't BELIEVE I didn't take any pictures!!

I soo want to share with you the little store that welcomed me with open arms!

The good news is they asked me to come back during their next big event...

The American Picker Fest....in 2 weeks!!!

For those of you who are familiar with the American Pickers....they live right in the town where I sold my gardens today and are starting a very big event this June in the town of LeClaire, Iowa.

So fun....

and guess who gets to be right in the middle of the divine action!!

And YES I said TWO WEEKS!!

I was just saying I was going to take the next week to really focus and finish things up at work and to baby my gardens and plant seeds and work on my bottle trees and order butterflies and ladybugs and get Luna's garden in tip top shape...

Oh.....do you like the clothes line? That was my step daughter's idea......


Here is a better look at the clothes hanging out in the sun.
I love the smell of sunshine....
Is there anything better than crawling into bed with sheets just taken off the clothesline?


OH my loves....ha....these pictures are so random....here are my business cards!

My friends made them for me last week.....

They are so simple, so cute!

I love them.....and am so lucky that I have friends who would do anything for me AND have computer skills.....


Have I told you all how much I appreciate all of your kind words

support

encouragement

love love love?

You all had more faith in me than I ever did....

Never thought I would sell anything...and today I did! Can't believe it!


Look, here are the little price tags I made.....inside each bag included a business card and how to care for their new fairy garden

I really hope everyone who bought a garden from me is loving them!

I am so honored and humbled by the people who purchased my gardens....

I hope it brings them magic....



I am sending all of YOU magic too!!!


Thank you for being my biggest fans!!

  7. I must say that these fairie gardens are so amazing. I love all the detail work you put into all of them. Very well done. I am trying to put a fairie garden together. I have the plants and collecting twigs and things. I have been searching everywhere for a low type pot to put it all in.
    Any suggestions?
