Here we go again!

Summer absolutely flew by! Between home improvement projects, kid's cooking classes (Lauri), kid's art classes (Charla), and just plain day-to-day stuff, all of a sudden it's back-to-school and time to plan our next show. Crafter letters for this year's holiday boutique are going out tonight! We are so excited about all the fun things we have planned to celebrate 30 years of boutiqueing (is that a word?) together. Check in every now and then to find out what we've got brewing.

One Day Down, Two to Go!

Wow, today was a great opening day - especially considering the weather, road construction and stolen signs. Thanks to everyone who braved the storm.

Here's a few pics of some fun things at the show!

Baked with Love Aprons

by Ashley Evanson

She makes each of these aprons at home and they are of the best quality. They'll make you feel cute and sassy while you cook! She's done oodles of great designs.

Cakes and Banners
by Devany Niederhauser

She started making banners and cakes for her first child's first birthday. She likes to make parties extraordinary with great themes and lots of details. It was hard to find what she wanted in the store, so she started making it all herself.

Mimiware
by Michele Goaslind

If you'd like something fun to perk up your kitchen - Mimiware is the place to go. She's got so many fun designs. Michele also does some amazing doll beds and bedding.

Dear Miss Alice,
by Heidi Glauser

She's done lots of things for this show in addition to what you see above. Her button magnets, rings, and hair elastics are unique and fun. Her vintage cake, jewelry, whatnot stands and watch necklaces are each one-of-a-kind!

And that, my friends is a very small fraction of what you'll find at our Spring Boutique. Come check it out.

Winners!

So, we've spent the better part of the last three days putting this show together (not to mention all the "before" tasks) and our brains are a little fried, so forgive me if there are absolutely no frills on this post. But, I must say that the boutique is looking fabulous!

Here are the winners in our first two giveaways:

The de Roda Family wins the frame!

Jamilyn Bell wins the $20 boutique gift certificate!
