Pool Party Monday!

 These are the reasons when I love being self employed and having lots of friends in the service industry!  While most people were heading off to their 9 to 5 jobs yesterday we were gearing up for a pool party! 

 

James.  He looks like Jesus with his hair down. :-)

Also, the loser in me noticed the "Ball" logo on my friend Jessi's Dale's can. haha  I assume Ball cans them, which is pretty awesome because I do love Oscar Blue's beer!  I pointed it out to Jessi and she said "yeah girl, that's the logo on all the stuff you do for your business" ha...things like that make me happy!  Now it's Tuesday...back to work!  Working on a custom order for a wedding for 60 candles and 30 painted jars...RUSHED.  AH! I may loose my sanity this week. ;-)

4th of July Fun

 I got to spend a few days with the family over the week of the 4th.  We ate some amazing food including homemade banana ice cream and homemade fried pickles.  (Both of which I helped make!)

 Check out the vintage Lipton sun tea jar in the back of this photo.  Also, the vintage toaster that my parents still use!  My mother will tell you all the time about how she use to warm up her pop tarts in college with that toaster!!  That toaster as 40 + years on it...they just don't make em like that use to! OH...also the ice cream maker is vintage too.  My father can tell you exactly how much he paid for it from Eckard drug! ha

Jars, Jars, Jars- Painted Mason Jars

This has become a huge part of my life these days, but would not trade it!  There are jars everywhere in my house!

But I DEFINITELY NEVER forget about my vintage love.  Found these AMAZING retro wooden half barrel storage stools and this avocado green Cosco kitchen stool at the flea market the other day. Wish I could find cute furniture at this price every week!! 

THE RETRO REDHEAD BOOTH- The Downtown Market- Asheville, NC

 Here are a few shots from my booth at The Downtown Market in Asheville, NC.

 A few of my ball jar candles and painted mason jars!

 4th of July picnic display! (my sister was oh so proud of this display :-))

My AMAZING sister helps me with my booth.  I bring her boxes and boxes of stuff and finds a way to display all my lovely items in my tiny booth! :-)  Couldn't do it without her!!

Leaving town a storm was brewing! Have a great week kids!
