13 days til Christmas boutique

This past Saturday the 13th was the first Christmas boutique held at a local vendors home and my first time selling my items. There wasn't the yearly christmas fair after the parade not sure if we lost a major sponsor. But that did not stop us from the holiday spirit. A very lovely lady was so nice of her to let us use her house to sale our gifts from handmade to homemade baked and cooked goods. This was my first holiday boutique. Very good turn out and great experience. Met some wonderful people too. I am a city girl but I do love my new town and we are coming up on four years since we moved here.  I got to talk with some vendors and the local towns people who came. Gotta say these mountain communities have grown on me and I love it here and now gotta prepare for March's boutique.

These are some of the items I made to sale
