Market This Weekend

I will be a vendor at the Chesterton European Market, in Indiana this Saturday, August 22nd.




It a charming nearby (remember, I'm right by the Indiana border) market, in a beautiful setting, that my friend Rhonda and I checked out this past weekend.




I didn't take too many photos, but, loved this dressed up dress form by Jewels In Bloom.
















You can get info on the market by clicking HERE.

Look for me under the tan tent, near the produce.

CHIPPY FLEUR DE LIS SIGNS

I did not expect to be so worn out after my last show, but, my body just refused to do much of anything until a few days ago.



After a bit of rest, I'm cutting, and, painting fleur de lis signs.




I hand cut these, and, gave them this chippy, weathered finish.  I used a bit of homemade paint from the Farragoz course, along with my own mixtures.  It was a mad scientist moment.





I added "Chateau" in script.  On the heart, I also added a touch of scrolling.






They will be available in my Etsy shop, and, at my next show.  I'll keep you posted.
