Crappy pictures, but a whole bunch of inspiration (and rain 😅)

Even though the weather was really lame and stressful, we still had a great weekend 🤩

Everyone always goes above and beyond at this show when it comes to their displays. It’s always a treat to walk around and see how creative everyone is!

I had some of my things in a black trash bag that was mistakenly picked up with the trash when we weren’t looking during tear down that I had to go dumpster diving for 😂 but I found some cool old giant fishing nets while I was in there that I can make wreaths with or something 😅 always a silver lining ✨

Heading back half the distance this weekend to Renegade Craft for their Wicker Park show 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
CANNOT WAIT!!!!

I don’t want to spam you guys up too much, but I want to show you these before I get them packed into my car 😍
I wonder if these were trims for an old organ or maybe even from a church altar??
Basically the ultimate piece to stick on an empty shelf 🥰

Okay, back to packing!!! Hope to see you at The Found Cottage Mercantile Market at the Ottawa County Fairgrounds in Holland, MI this Friday and Saturday 🖤🤍🤎

Went on a longgggg road trip today to get these rolls of corn check wire 🤩 I got them from the sweetest older couple that used them back in 1964. All three rolls are in great shape since they have been stored in a barn for around 60 years. I’m so excited to have check wire again to create some beautiful flowers for people to enjoy 🤗 I already made a few tonight that I will be bringing with me to Holland, Michigan for the The Found Cottage Mercantile Market this weekend 😍

Hiiiiiii!!!
Art at the Park - Appleton, WI
IS TOMORROW 😍🤩

I haven’t done this show in years, back when it was just a one day-er, but it was PACKED with great art. I remember bringing my trailer with 101 flowers in it and came home with just a few 🥲

If you are in the Appleton, Oshkosh, Green Bay, even Milwaukee area or center of the state, I bet you won’t be disappointed if you come…I brought some really great window frame pieces and a couple huge flowers too 😘

RENEGADE CHICAGO 😍😍😍

I had the BEST time meeting so many new friends, collectors, and art people…the talent of everyone there was seriously so incredible 🥲

Thank you to everyone that made purchases with me this weekend and having the bravery to take the blue line with a giant wire flower on their lap 😂

I was by myself so I didn’t really get an opportunity to walk around and talk to many of the other artists there which I’m kind of bummed about but what I was able to see art-wise was so inspiring and unique 🥰

It was my first time in Chicago and everyone was so welcoming and kind, I can’t wait to come back someday hopefully soon!

Shout out to my neighbors Bumble Ceramics for yapping with me and selling flowers for me while I quickly ran to grab some food 😅 Also my friend Rarity Collective that co-owns The Umbrella Vintage came to see me and check on me 🥰 GO PATRONIZE THESE NICE PEOPLE AND I MEAN THIS IN THE COMMERCE SENSE AND NOT THE CONDESCENDING DEFINITION ❤️

The miniest of photo dumps:
1. Photo evidence of me being able to still parallel park
2. Jerry bought me a Milwaukee Tool portable fan for my birthday and I honestly think I would have died if I didn’t have it on Saturday 🥵
3. A large tri-colored beech in someone’s landscape I was very jealous of because I haven’t been able to find a local one to plant for my own 🙄😑

Back at it this weekend at Art at the Park - Appleton, WI Summer art shows are in full swing 🙂

Leave it up to me to completely switch up my tent set up on basically the eve of a big event 😅

Seeing how well these mesh shade tarps work for me this weekend in Chicago at Renegade Craft…I always struggle with my tent walls on windier days because my walls aren’t breathable so they want to act as a sail and hold all the wind back 😓 SO I’M CROSSING MY FINGERS THAT THESE WILL BE MORE FORGIVING AND LESS STRESSFUL 🤞

Got them “relaxing” outside right now, hopefully it will loosen some of the creases out 🤷‍♀️

When the day comes that I finally get a designated space to work on my wire flowers, hot dang, it will be well-received 😂
