The Vintage Marketplace, March 2013

I love going to The Vintage Marketplace, a craft fair held four times a year in Rainbow, CA.

This time, Amie got to join me and we were on a mission for wedding decor and ideas. In addition to the overload of inspiration, Amie was able to buy quite a few decorations for the wedding from vintage metal serving trays to lace doilies for the centerpieces.

Sweet Magnolias Farm

While I love looking at the products these shop offer, their storefronts alone are such a work of art and decorated differently each time!

Broke Jewels

I love browsing the different necklace pieces that Broke Jewels offer, so many options to create your own unique necklace. They are on Etsy too!

Earth Cookie Creations

This is also a favorite stop for me! Gotta stock up on the amazingly creative scrapbook cards from Earth Cookie Creations! Each one is such a layered treasure down to the smallest detail. She even wrote a blog post about the fair that you can read here.

I bought this first card for my grandma-in-law’s birthday! Loved how bright and cheerful it was.

Plus she has a lot of raw supplies for you to make your own crafts at home, got some more lace to add to my collection!

The Vintage Rabbit

Amie and I really loved visiting The Vintage Rabbit, every item in this shop seemed to be perfectly created for Amie’s wedding! She even found the cutest little purse for the money dance. You can visit The Vintage Rabbit online here.

I believe in magic. I believe in the power of true love. I believe in fairy tales and happy endings. And I live to create stationery and art for the young at heart to allow my fellow dreamers to treasure all of life’s most wondrous moments!
