Setup has begun!

Hello Everyone!
Today was a big day here in Tipton...

.
Setup for our 2nd Annual French Flea Market has begun!
The parking lot is getting readied....
Vendor spaces marked off...
Main gate pieces collected...
And a few of our own spaces completed so that we can attend to other things the rest of the week.

The first two to be completely setup was Holly's space
 which we constructed from old doors and paint tarps!



Holly and Caleb (the young man in this photo) will not be here for the Flea Market this year.
They will be on a mission trip with their youth group!
 So...in order for Holly to get to do the interior of her own space...it was built today!

I am in love with this cozy little gypsy tent!
It is so fitting all of the fun jewelry and handknitted items Holly makes!


(This is Holly!)

The Antique Flower cart  (just behind her in this photo ) will be filled with Fresh Flowers and Potpourri this weekend.
 Holly's Grandmother will be running these two precious spaces for us! 

Next...we moved on to the Patisserie!


On Friday and Saturday this space will be filled with amazing treats!
Lavender Lemonade...
Brownie bites...
Lemon cakes...
And Chocolate pudding cake with fresh fruit to name just a few!

The skirted old sink will be filled with ice cold bottled waters
And the iron basket...homemade breads and herb butter!


Are you getting excited!

We all are!
Tomorrow we will be making the final adjustments to the Farm Fresh Produce Tent and The Secret Garden's Sale Room!


Just a reminder...

This event takes place

Rain or Shine!

Last year...it rained!
But we still had the best time!

So please make plans to join us if you can!

THIS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
JULY 9 and 10
Gates open at 9am and we close each day at 5

We have added two last minute vendors

So the parking lot is packed!
So many wonderful things for you to see!

All of our vendors have been gathering their goodies and look forward to your arrival!

See you Friday...or Saturday!

I am in love with Holly's structure that was made. So pretty. And what a pleasant surprise to find my blog on your site, thanks, I'll add you as well. I can tell there were great vendors here, love Rebecca. I met her this past Spring at the big shows in Texas. Would love to come one day and visit. Maybe when I quit my big girl job. Have a great day, Theresa
