The Mes Amis Spring 2012 Line Up

Pin It
I am so excited to write this post!!!!  At this time, the weather outside is dreary and many of our vendors are antsy for the weather to turn including myself.
I am thrilled the forecast for April 21st is perfect - sunny skies, and clear!!

 Many of your favorite vendors will be returning - I am excited to see how Robin from Lipstick Gypsy has added to her pink vintage trailer that she debuted last show as she is returning from Idaho once again!!!!  In addition, we will have Katy AND Colette from the Waiting Room selling together.  They have not sold together all year so I am eager to see what they will be pulling out for you this event!
Other favorites that are always a hit are the dynamic duos - James and Jacque from Old Soul Studios with specially saved treasures for the Mes Amis customers.  Other vendors saving up and always packing beautiful finds are The Vintage Bricoleurs from their store in Loomis.
My friend Annette will be selling with me once again and
we are so excited to doll up the trailer even more this time!

Also returning are Besty from My Salvaged Treasures, Mona from Gatherings selling alongside Randy Pacheco and her creative bottles, Gretchen H., The Bustos, Nancy Okey Designs, Nancy Guin, Liz from Dain Interiors,
The Birdsalls from Sunshine Petal Designs, Laura of Miss Worm, the Richters from Richters Antiques, Connie from Interiors by Connie, and Nancy and Mindy of Popcorn Tree.  Some great vendors and really hard workers are the team known as Burlap and Bees!  Heather and Lisa are always on the move when they work their space!

In addition, we have The Red Door - Elk Grove and Trish Everett collaborating together, as well as Daisy Girl Creations and Penne S., and Crystal Y. with Laura who will be selling her French Goodies for the first time!  Also selling for their first time, Amanda from Element Design, Doug with his handmade furniture of Creative Furnishings, and my friend Debbie with her burlap creations.

Mes Amis Fall 2011 Show - Part 1: The Bloggers Perspective

Pin It
This post is long overdue! I jumped immediately from producing this show to preparing to sell at another which I am leaving for in less than an hour. I still have to pack but I cannot let the other show start without sharing the fun we had at the Mes Amis Vintage Antiques Show here in Roseville a few weeks ago.

I was thrilled to have so many bloggers tell me they would be attending so I created a blogger badge for them to wear, as a thank you for taking shots and eventually sharing with us, their perspective of the show. This post will honor those that let me know their photos were up and so if I neglected to share your post, let me know. I will have 2 other postings related from 2 other perspectives!!

Thanks to:  Courtney, French Country Cottage for all your friendship for the past how many years now?  And all the fun shopping, sharing and bonding!!  The shots are awesome!  Marsha, of Sassy Mini Dolls, my newest blogger friend and former customer that gave me lots of advise and cheer in getting this blog, show and Facebook going! Betsy from MySalvagedTreasures who I have known the longest in this roll and I bought my first wholesale lot from when I started in this business!!  To Robin from Lipstick Gypsy who drove all the way from Idaho because she said she would, despite the crazy days leading up to the show and my new friend Lisa, from Treasure Broker, who did 2 big shows back to back because she loves what she does so much!
To these friends of Mes Amis and many more that I neglected to share their pictures from, thanks so much for taking the time to be a part, taking the time and going the extra mile!  And to the bloggers that were toooooooo busy selling to take pictures, your support means everything to my family!  I plan on sharing more photos from Ashton and Collette, their perspectives are much different!!  Cant wait!

 
Thanks again for a wonderful turnout. We all had a blast from 3am - 10pm for some of us!! See you in the Spring!
