We Canadians are a bit shy about self promotion, but that has to stop now! These girls are amazing!
Do Farm Chicks have to worry.......no, because its not a competition!
Thanks to everyone who had a part in making this Market Great, Birch & Bird, ALL the Vendors!, The City Of Clayburn Village for supporting the community, Thanks to Ivory Vintage Market for getting the ball rolling....and to all the Folks who came out & made the day possible!
And a special thanks to my Family who where there, and those that weren't but wished they could! my friends, my husband who had to go home for more "stuff", to restock the booth after the first hour! The Bloggers who came and said Hi, that was amazing to meet you all! And a HUGE thanks to my girl Shelley ...I could not have done it without you....Shelley you saved the day & made it so much fun....!
Thanks to Rachel & Lily for having the vision to start what I hope is an amazing new adventure for the area! To Rachel & Lily for being so organized, promotion, media!, beautiful signage, Love the sandwich boards...so smart!, yummy food, coffee & treats (where did those Lemon cupcakes come from???).
I know you want to see pictures, I had NO time to take any. But the professionals (and more organized ladies!) that did are listed here...

Dearest Colleen, I believe we met once before; you know my dear friend "Rosie" and I see that you also know our wonderful KORALEE!!! SO NICE TO SEE YOU and what you are up to! I keep updated with Rosie daily and how I wish I could have a visit with you all up in B.C.....one day I want to walk in on Roses and Rutabagas! I see you also have a wonderful style as well. Thank you for visiting me tonight; I suppose you came by way of Rosie. Have a wonderful week and stop by again!!! Anita

I really hope the put on another market in the very near future. It was a really great event. The place was packed!
It sounds like a wonderful show. I sure hope I can make it there sometime in the future. I will definitely put it on my bucket list Coleen.
I want to thank you for the message you left for me on my post about Landon. Your husband is doing a wonderful work and I LOVE teachers who have chosen to bless the lives of the disabled.
hugs from here...
I will for sure be visiting your booth! I'm always in Fort Langley, can't wait to see it!
I'm definitely hoping for another event to be planned as I missed out on this one! Sounds like it was wonderful!!
