the COUNTDOWN begins . . .

It's that time again! Hooray!

As of today, we are, officially, 2 weeks an 5 days away from the 2nd annual Chicks Along the Canal show.  I am so excited for this year as we have all sorts of really great things planned.  I can't hardly believe how much it's grown from last year and I just know each year it is just going to get bigger and better.  I have had quite a bit of "real life" on my plate as of recently and so though I am a little disappointed that I won't have as big a collection of physical pieces to display, I am still so thrilled to be a part of all the fun.  Here's just a sample of some of the wonderful things there will be there to enjoy . . .

Our first ever Reclaimed Fashion Show 

featuring original reclaimed and recycled fashion designs by RosMari, the Persnickety Chick, and one of our youngest chicks, Livy Rose of the Vintage Rainbow.  Reclaimed jewelry and fashion accessories by the talented Richelle Hawkes of Shipwreck Dandy and the whimsical Betty Maple.

For more info you can check out our facebook page here.
