Hope you all had a nice weekend! I have to share a bit about my weekend.
On Saturday there was a craft show near us. This is not your normal craft show - it's huge and people come from all over to go to it. It's set up in a very large Greenhouse and there were over 250 vendors there, along with lots of food trucks.
I went with my sister and because it's always very busy we got there right away in the morning. When we arrived, the parking lot was already full!
But finally, we made it inside. There were lots of cute booths - candles, clothing, vintage items, fresh Christmas arrangements and so many other cute items.
We wandered around for about 1 1/2 hours before making our way out.
I didn't buy a lot, just a candle and a few little trees to decorate with. It was fun to look at everything!
I mentioned that it was snowing earlier in the day. After supper, it really started to come down.
The snow was piled up on everything; these are rain bells that collect rain and then hit each other and chime. I love the snow piled high on them.
I'm not a fan of cold and snow, but have to admit that it is beautiful. Unfortunately, we are supposed to be getting more on Monday, so I better get used to it!










Dear Mari, what a long line of people for the craft fair!!! I like the items you bought. Your snow ❄️ photos are absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, Mari!! That snow! And those are long lines waiting to get into the craft show. Always fun, though. When you get tired of that white stuff, Avelo comes right to Lakeland from Grand Rapids!! Hint, hint!! :)
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful those snow scenes are but I'm content to see them from a distance. The craft fair looked like fun and I love your little tree for decorating. Keep warm and snug.
ReplyDeleteWow that is one amazing craft show!!
ReplyDeleteWe had a little snow here today just enough to make it greasy driving. Many accidents we are in for more snow Tues but not as much as you got!

Your snow photos are really gorgeous!!! This craft show is wild!! And I do see a few things I would buy. I love the trees you chose.
ReplyDeleteSuch long lines, but it sounds worth it.
ReplyDeleteYour snow photos are beautiful!
Waking up to 11½ inches is no joke.
Stay warm and enjoy the cosy winter vibes.
Wouah ! Beautiful scenery with snow.⛄️ it was very, very crowded but it must have been been very interesting you got nice Christmas decorations. Snow is beautiful but not when you drive.
ReplyDeleteI love the photos of your beautiful shed in the decorated trees. God did a beautiful job decorating all the natural Christmas trees. I stay away from driving in the rain which means no driving in snow. I hope we never see it here. also we have a flea market that gets traffic like this and I stay far away. crowds are not my thing. I do like your little trees you bought. the good thing about not shopping on line, which is me, you can see what it really looks like. In pictures on line they look better than when they come. that is a big advantage when shopping and seeing it.. that is a ton of snow and I LOVE the photo with the steps piled high
ReplyDeleteMari...the photos of the snow are absolutely gorgeous. I'm a tad bit jealous that we don't have snow...well we might every 3 or 4 years but it's not enough to last or play in. This event is huge and goodness what a huge success it must be. glad you were able to get in and do a little shopping..
ReplyDeleteThat craft fair sounds so fun and something I would completely be patient waiting in line for too. I love what you picked out! And we have about a foot of snow total now (after several different days of snowing). I guess it will be a white Christmas! Lol Your photos are so lovely. Stay cozy :)
ReplyDeleteWow, that is an amazing line of people going to the craft show! It must be a good one. Your purchases are so pretty. I especially like the white tree. Good that you got there and back before the snow piled up. Thanks for sharing your photos. Everything looks so pretty. Puts one right in the mood for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's some line of people and cars ... glad you got there early. Love your tree purchases they will look perfect in your home.
ReplyDeleteI really love the picture of the snow on the stairs and the snow on the tree branches. Truly Christmas Cards in real life.

I love the little trees that you got at the craft show...especially the green one. So cute!
ReplyDeleteThe snow is beautiful, but it really looks like a wet snow the way it is weighing on the evergreens. Stay warm and safe, my friend. xx
You did get a lot of snow, it's so pretty!!
ReplyDeleteWow that is some long line. Don't think I'd would have waited on it. :)
I am shocked at all the snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW! It was beautiful. I would never have the patience to wait in that line.
ReplyDeleteGoodness me! That long, long line and wait, just to get inside...amazing!
ReplyDeleteBrrr that looks a lot of snow.
Happy December:)
All the best Jan
Wow, that must have been some craft show! But your snow photos are way more impressive. It's absolutely gorgeous, a winter wonderland, but I can't even imagine living in that kind of weather!
ReplyDeleteThe line to get inside was crazy! Though, I would have stood in it to shop around :)
ReplyDeleteThat snow, my friend! Wow! And I am so happy you got to the craft show early! I bet that was fun! Stay safe and cozy, and Happy December!
ReplyDeleteWell I love the snow, of course I don't have to live in it. It is the perfect decoration for December! The photos are incredible. Wow.
ReplyDeleteThe craft shows sounds nice but no way, would I stand in that long line in the cold, icy weather. I do like what you chose to purchase. I have a thing for trees.
That must be some amazing craft show. I don't know that I would have waited in such a long line to get in though.
ReplyDeleteI really like the little trees you bought to decorate with.
The snow shots are gorgeous.
That is a lot of snow! It sure looks pretty! No snow here where I live.
ReplyDeleteWow, such a long line of people waiting to get in. It must be a great craft show. I love the photos of the snow. It looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat must be some craft show to have cars lined up like that. We use to do a prim antique show that was like that. You did get lots of snow, unlike us. However we did have a clipper come in last night with a bit more snow. Not like you did though. Janice
