May- A Paris Street Market

The weather was perfect this past Saturday,

right up till the market closed at 3.

Then it got cloudy. David and Alex helped me load the u-haul van as it started to rain. Just before I collapsed the canopy tent, a strong wind gust hit. Thankfully both David and I were holding the canopy so it stayed in place. Thankfully all my inventory was packed before the rain arrived.

I will be a vendor at A Paris Street Market June- September and October. Here is the Market info I posted on Instagram last week

Grateful for my husband David who once again helped me setup. Alex and David also came after Alex's soccer game to bring me lunch. Enjoyed visiting with my friends -Amy of the Pink Attic Cat, Dale and Peggy, and Carla & Hannah.

A Paris Street Market September 2016

THANK YOU! To everyone who came to my booth last Saturday at A Paris Street Market in Aspen Grove.

A special thanks to my husband who woke up at dawn to help me set up and who came late morning with my daughter Laura ( we enjoyed lunch together). Laura returned to CSU early afternoon so it was really sweet my husband returned to help me pack up and load the u-haul van.

This year's market season had a slow start with weather issues. However, this last market had stellar sales. Record sales for a non- holiday market. Thank you to all my customers, old and new:)

Thanks to my friend Amy, owner of the Pink Attic Cat for loaning me this cool vintage display rack for my camper drink coasters and camper pillows.

Old House Vintage Market May 2016

Can't believe summer break is almost over. Alex will go start middle school in a few weeks (7th) grade. Laura will return to CSU in Ft. Collins in a few weeks. Today Laura had her tonsils removed so she will be home recovering before returning to the busy college life. While we sit in the waiting room, I thought it would be a good opportunity to blog.

Blogging this summer has been a challenge. Since my last post ( it's been a while) I traveled to Texas twice. First trip was to El Paso where I spent time with my parents, my sister, family and friends. I was home only a few weeks and it was time to travel again. The second trip was a family road trip to Texas.

When we took our car in for service before the trip, we learned it has several small leaks that could not be taken care in the time the car was in for service. We quickly made a reservation for a rental car and we were on our way.

This summer we started our trip with a few days at the beach and pier fishing in San Padre Island, near Corpus Christi. Our next stop was a few days with my mother in law in Austin where we spent time with the entire Wagner family. Before we left Austin, our dear friends - Alan and Tina- came from Houston to spend an afternoon with us. Our last stop was San Antonio where we had breakfast with our former next door neighbor and dear friend, Cindy. We spent a few days with June (who is my surrogate sister) and her husband David.

I came home inspired full of ideas after spending time in June's home studio. MORE on that later. Although if you want to see a preview of that, visit my Instagram page (IsaCreationsVintage).

In an effort to catch up on my blog posts, let's go back to May - Old House Vintage Market. It's a new market in Golden,Co. It was a fun market at a lovely park where the weather was perfect! After having two markets with miserable cold (wet for one of those markets), it was wonderful to have a warm sunny day. My friend Lisa was there to help me at this market:)

I am also happy to share I will be a vendor at the next Old a House Vintage Market in September!

Although I have done very little blogging this summer, I have been busy creating many new items for upcoming markets in September starting with A Paris Street Market in Aspen Grove and Old House Vintage Market. I look forward to sharing my new items in future blog posts.
Here are photos of my booth from Old House Vintage Market in May. the market organizer, Bernadette is a wonderful organizer. She provided all her vendors with complimentary coffee and breakfast burritos - all very much appreciated. We had space to "spill out", which is great when you are a vendor. I look forward to being a vendor at all her future markets.
