Just a Few Short Hours!


Only 12 hours! Things are almost ready for the big event. If you were somehow on the fence about whether or not to go- really is that even an option- then take a look at Jemellia's adorable aprons and you'll quickly decide. Jemellia has lots of the funniest aprons, totes, zipper bags and some beautiful fabric bracelets. Don't be surprised if you see a certain someone sporting a new apron tomorrow!

The tables all look so very cute and the merchandise is incredible. You are going to love IT!!

This chickie is going to get some shut eye- it's been a long day! See you in the am

One Two Buckle My Shoe- cause I gotta get to Paper Crown

I can hardy wait- a royal wedding and Glitter Market, it's a crafty girls dream come true. I have specifically left a little creating to for this am, it seems like the perfect duo. Speaking of duos, today's sneak peek is one of my very favorite duos- Jill and Susan.


Susan & Jill at the fall Glitter Market- They truly are the cutest things!
They are just plan fun and I love it when they take a class because I know there will be laughter and Jill almost always brings me a treat. Jill and Susan are whipping up the most incredible yummies for Glitter Market. I'm not sure what they are bringing but to be honest I don't care because I guarantee you it will be out of this world. Cookies, candy, bread, brownies it simply doesn't matter because it will be amazing. You will want to hit this table 1st before the favorites disappear!

Three is the Magic Number


Day 3 Artist
Medeah Kitsmiller



Today's sneak peek is from Medeah Kitsmiller. Medeah is relatively new to Paper Crown but boy has she fit in perfectly. Medeah is a former art teacher and now gets to work on her craft while raising her adorable daughter Miss Chloe - how she does that with a three year old amazes me.


Miss Chloe didn't feel like shoes this day

Medeah does beautiful mixed media canvases that are covered in layers of fun. In addition to selling at the Glitter Market, Medeah also is teaching mixed media classes at Paper Crown. More of Medeah's work can be seen at www.medeah.blogspot.com.

Only 4 Short Days!

I can hardly believe it is only 4 short days until Paper Crown's Spring Glitter Market. So very much to do and so very little time. Easy for me to say, I'm not vending. Here is a sneak peek at today's vendor-

The Very Talented and Even More Humble
Miss Linda Land




I have known Linda for almost 13 years. She was also a very talented Nichols Hills Elementary mom. How in a school full of incredibly talented artistic moms did I happen to hook up with the one really bad apple- I will always wonder but anyway... Linda created the most wonderful play sets with her good buddy Cherry and then I discovered her amazing art work - Wow! Over the years I have been lucky enough to get a few pieces and I love each one. Linda has a studio in Paseo and for years did the magical displays at Cloverleaf. 
More of Linda's work can be seen on her blog, lindalandsflutter@blogspot.com
Linda will be sharing a booth with her good friend Brenda Little and I know it will be a sparkling, fantastical and very crowded table! 

We really have such amazing items for Glitter Market, I just hope we aren't sold out by noon. Theme for Glitter Market- You snooze you will lose!   


While you all are waiting for Saturday to arrive here are a few goodies that arrived yesterday. While the market will be crowded, if it is anything like last fall, the store will also be packed- and I personally hope so.
I have a feeling the same theme will apply at Paper Crown- You snooze you will lose!

New My Mind's Eye- Lime Twist
Fun papers and each line has several coordinating twines in new colors- these will fly out the door!
Lime Twist has 2 cute boy lines. Thank Goodness, you know those can be very rare.

New Anna Griffin albums, magnetic boards, notepads and frames
 make the perfect Graduation and Mother's Day gifts

Countdown Day 5

I think I'm finally caught up- WHEW!

A most important piece of information- The Paper Crown Spring Glitter Market held THIS Saturday, April 30th will be held right next door! We are so excited we got the empty storefront right next door (the former No Regrets location, 9301 N. Pennsylvania). If you are facing the front of Paper Crown it will be to your immediate left. Although it would be nice to have neighbors, I'm glad we don't this weekend.


Day 5 Valisha Hall

I have known Valisha for 11years, since Payne and her twins Emily and Jacob were in kindergarten. Her art has always been amazing and she is so very humble. She would never toot her own horn so I'm glad to get the chance. Valisha does a lot of painting and mixed media projects. Currently most of her work is committed to the OKC Designer Symphony Showhouse but we were able to get a few of her smaller pieces. Many of you have admired her vase of red flowers in the classroom and I think I've almost twisted her arm enough to teach a class. You won't want to miss these mini paintings and if you could twist her arm just I little more I'd appreciate it! 



New My Mind's Eye arrived late this afternoon and all Easter is 75% off 

Countdown Continues



The Paper Crown Spring Glitter Market countdown continues.....

The computers at the store are much newer than mine at home so here is the picture that wasn't cooperating yesterday.




This is a sample of the beautiful textile work by Martha Green. If you were involved in the Easter swap you will agree with me that Martha's work is beautiful. We are so glad she is joining us for Glitter Market and can't wait to see the vibrant art she will be selling.

Day 6
(I realize it is actually Day 5, we will be having another post later this afternoon) 


  
This gorgeous mosaic arched window is by a new vendor to Glitter market, Amy Baldwin. Amy does the most stunning mosaics and fun calendars. I know you all will go crazy for Amy's art. More of Amy's work can be seen on her blog http://www.curlyqmosaics.blogspot.com/. 

As you can see you will want to be here right at 10 on Saturday to get the best selection. I predict a sellout. We should know the exact location for Glitter Market later today so watch for a second post with Day 5 sneak peek and our Glitter Market location.
