a wonderful day on Camano Island . . .

a few more pictures from the . . .
Petite Retreat Show
last Saturday on Camano Island!!!

It was a wonderful show
put on by two equally wonderful people . . .
Deb and Bob Kennedy!!!
from Retreat!!



Deb's style is amazing . . .



loved the setting of her space . . .
in an old two-stall barn!!



loved the displays . . .



and especially her choice of colors . . .

We also met her very dear friend Linda . . .

who was a true joy to get to know!!

I also loved
Patricia Mackey's space . . .



wonderful custom jewelry, lavender sachets . . .

all from her business called . . . Tippy-Stockton.

Truly amazing!!!

(It was also so nice to meet her friend Tammy!!)

And - I have to say . . . I am loving my new bracelet!! :)


And Wendy . . .

with all her cool chairs from

her business called . . .

Gussy Chairs!!!

Gussy Chair frames all made up . . .

or chair frames all ready to be upholstered!!

I am hoping she comes to our next market on Bainbridge Island!!

Wendy's friend Melanie also shared her space . . .

with her business called Plum Cushion

with some very cool pillows in designer fabrics!!

and finally . . .

a few more misc. pictures of my space
below . . .











Loved everything about this show . . .

it was what summer shows are all about!!!

see you soon . . . xoxo - liz

a few more days . . . Petite Retreat!!

my favorite dress-form
with a few necklaces that I have been working on . . .

I used to make jewelry . . . but haven't done so in a long time.
I find it very relaxing - like gardening,
or a yoga class from what I hear :) . . . and lately I really need that!!

I will be bringing a few of these necklaces and some earrings
to the Petite Retreat Show this Saturday . . .

but one thing you should know . . .

the gal with a true gift for making jewelry
will also be there!!

Her name is Patricia Kelly Mackey
and is the owner of . . .
Tippy Stockton
specializing in custom jewelry!!



She is very talented and I absolutely love her use of color!!
The jewelry is amazing!!


Wendy Prowell from Gussy Chairs
will be also be there!!



She will have a large selection of finished and
unfinished chairs to choose from!
Can't wait - as I love chair frames!!


and of course . . .
the Queen of the Petite Retreat Show . . .



Deb Kennedy and her husband Bob!!
They are a husband and wife team and are the owners of Retreat!!

They are always working on something new and wonderful . . .
and have a truly unique and beautiful style all their own!!

Deb is not only a talented designer . . .
but she is also a strong, savvy and smart woman as well!!
She knows what she wants . . .
then she goes about what she needs to do . . . and then gets it done.

She walks the talk - and I really like about her!!

This spring Deb started her Petite Retreat vintage shows
on their property located on beautiful Camano Island!!

Their first show was a huge success . . .
and I know this one is going to be even more amazing!!

Can't wait to see what they have been working on . . .



the one thing I do know - is that
there will be all sorts of great vintage treasures . . .
just waiting especially for you!!

So . . . jot it down on your "to do list" for this weekend . . .
it is truly the perfect way to spend a Summer Saturday!!
