{The Brick Farmhouse}

It was, after all, a BRICK FARMHOUSE event!  So named because it was located on the front lawn of Kara's 1860's brick farmhouse.  What they have done with the landscaping and this house is truly amazing.  It fits Kara so well.  Yes, old houses are a ton of work and come with quite a few headaches. But the character just cannot be duplicated.  Don't you agree that this is just beautiful?

The inside is just as inspiring:)

Continue down to the following post to see pics of McMaster and Storm's tent and the goodies they sold at the Brick Farmhouse Event.

{McMaster and Storm}

Cute laminated sign came in very handy with the rain we had Friday morning.

Isn't the artwork on that great?  Created by Katie Runnels.

McMaster and Storm's tent was just adorable.

Great urns.  Two of these will grace our home next spring.  Can't wait!

Kara and her Mother made some simple, cute nametags for the vendors.

(I was supposed to help with these but got too busy.  Sorry Kara, thanks Karen!)

Levi providing the morning coffee!

Here's to a great event!

And now, let's browse through some of the yummy goodies sold my McMaster and Storm!

Green Italian Glassware.  Lovely.

Soaps.  Deliciousness.

More Glassware.

All kinds of fun things for the home.

Homemade Laundry soap.  It's great, you should try it.  And it's cheap.  Very Cheap.  And easy.

Old books.  Oh the possibilities!

I want one of those zinc medals.  I still have some shopping to do it seems!

One of my very favorite photos!

Cutest little shopper there!  So glad her Mom is getting her started on her way to being a great shopper!!!

Absolutely too cute.

This basket came home with me.  I used it today for clean laundry.  Wow can you get a TON of laundry in this thing!  And having unfolded laundry sitting around is so much better if it's in a fun basket.  Yes, I know I already had some fun laundry baskets.  But they were full too.  Now I can have even MORE clean, unfolded laundry that is piled in baskets instead of trailing all over the floor because the stack got too tall.  What good are cute, fun laundry baskets if the clothes spill over and hide the basket????

Mail Packages ~ No.2

This one was waiting for me when I got home too!  With that kind of packaging it's almost a crime to unwrap!!!

Hair bows/pins from m.blooms.

She's putting some fun stuff up for sale at THE EVENT!!

Come see us there!  September 23&24.

She included this.  LOOOOVE the color.  She's a doll.  Make sure you get those event dates on your calendar.  It's gonna be a good one:)  More info coming SOOOOONNNN!!

Upcoming Event! Mark your calendars!!

I have been wanting Kara to do this for awhile now.  I so miss the brick and mortar shop.

This is the next best thing and maybe even better:)

Also - Sew a Fine Seam will be one of the pop-up shops, sharing a tent with M.Blooms.

I'm getting really excited, tons of ideas floating around in my head, trying to get out and make themselves:)   Stay posted!!

Below is what Kara posted on her blog.  Be sure to head over there and check her blog often for more details:)
