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!

right in with your love for vintage living; tons of your favorite dealers
are amassing great treasures for sale already!!


Please mark those fresh 2012 calendars saving April 21st for the show. As always, the show is free, with free parking, and will run from 8am - 4pm!

In addition, I just wanted to remind you of our winter hours at The Vintage
Bricoleur:
Tuesday - Saturday, 10-5; Sunday, 10-4.
Located in the High Hand Fruit Sheds of Loomis, this co-op is home to many
of your Mes Amis dealers and products. If you haven't been to the High Hand
Nursery, its a wonderful day trip with gardens, a restaurant, wine tasting,
a gallery and, of course, The Vintage Bricoleur. If you are unfamiliar with
area, the High Hand Nursery is just 10 minutes from Downtown Roseville and

A Fresh Page

Pin It "Every man should be born again on the first day of January. Start with a fresh page. Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past. ~Henry Ward Beecher

I had a rough time trying to find a way to properly thank all my friends and customers for helping me cross the threshold of my new door (see my first blog post; 07/17/11). The poem above is dedicated to you all of you. I am honored to be a small part in a huge community that carried me with love, wisdom, strength, and lots of inspiration in 2011 and as we move into 2012 together, with excitement, hope and a fresh enthusiasm - I am honored to hopefully continue in playing a greater part of inspiring your lives.

With the fresh page turning for 2012, I am excited to share that I spent my first day of January moving completely into The Vintage Bricoleur in Loomis, CA. As you know, The Vintage Bricoleur opened its doors December 1st and, I, being part of their new co-op team, committed to be there..with one exception - I would not be fully in until January 1st as I committed first to my family to take the rest of the year off from a retail storefront. With honored commitments, I am now fully moved in and very excited! In fact, my new business cards arrived today with my new address!!! I still have more to bring - dealer friends I am collaborating with and new thoughts that I am noodling. But for now, here are some shots of my space.








As a reminder, The Vintage Bricoleur is located inside the High Hand Fruit Sheds, 3750 Taylor Road, Loomis CA. Our winter hours are Tues-Sun 11-4. I look forward to running into you there.

Best,
