Horseshoe Market Tomorrow

Horseshoe Market, "Home of the Lucky Finds"


Here's hoping for lots of good luck at the Horseshoe Market tomorrow. Carolyn and I will have over 40 unique pieces of garden art to sell. We are counting on those Mother's Day gift procrastinators. I know I fall in that category fairly often . . .

"Party!"

This "Party" garden tower is definitely the most colorful, contemporary one I've ever made.

I was fortunate to find a hand-painted miniature pitcher to put inside another vase for the tower below.

Getting Ready for Lucky Finds!

Spring has been SOOOOO slow in coming to the Rockies this year. It is May and finally I am seeing some tiny flowers and leaves on the trees. Had to take these photos near the only truly green thing in my yard . . . an evergreen bush.

The Horseshoe Market is a sure sign that spring is really here. We love this market because everyone vending must have either vintage or handmade items in their booth. We'll have our glass garden art ready for shoppers looking for a last minute Mother's Day gift. We could all use some color in the garden now!

HORSESHOE MARKET

Spring Bazaar Tomorrow!



So, officially, Spring has Sprung. But, this is the Rocky Mountain region. So the forecast for the Highlands Ranch Spring Bazaar is 2-4 inches of snow in the metro area. Keeping fingers crossed that a couple measly inches of the white stuff will not deter those seeking great finds at this sale! Eastridge Recreation Center, 9658 S University Blvd. 9-5

We've been making new garden art from vintage glass again for upcoming shows. My personal garden art collection has stood the test of weather through snow, freeze and thaw. So great to have some color outdoors during the winter.

Boulder Farmers Market

Carolyn & I are venturing farther north to Boulder. The Boulder County Farmers Market features fine arts and crafts once a month. We'll be selling our glass garden art this Saturday, July 14, from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. It's quite a trek to make from Parker and south Denver, but we think it will be worth it!

Here's a few of the latest creations.

Come see us on 13th St., between Arapahoe & Canyon Streets.

Tropical Wool

I finally finished this large rug for my craft/rughooking/sewing studio/guest room. Yes, I believe in multi-purposing! The design is from RaggTyme Studios, called Floral Garden, but I have re-named it Tropical Pink. Something about the design makes me think of the tropics. My first real attempt at dip-dyeing for the pink flowers. On to the next rug!
