Out of the Blue

Happy Monday!

What a Sunday it was....beautiful sunny day in Solana. The show went really well. Took a lot of peeks and I hope you enjoy it.




I love these tent slip covers!
made by Pam





Sweet Deb Hodge was there with her new
and" delizioso" pair of jeans. Love it!


I have to apologize up front, I met so many talented ladies ,I can't remember all their names but I do know how talented they are. This jewelry piece was made by Erin.

Amazing work, enjoy these few peeks
of soldered crowns and seashells urns.






The surfboard were selling like cup cakes!


Lisa Loria, bellissima as always.....and


her daughter Emily. My Mamma would say " e' un peperoncino". A little hot pepper, she had a small table with goodies that she hand crafted, sold everything in the first couple of hours!

This was, and I say it was Sandra Lee's garden box that I purchased as soon as I got there. Is going to go on my kitchen wall as soon as I get my b-day present from my Deano ( Red walls!)


I met Leana with her vintage clothing



more and more vendors






I had just made this bottle the Saturday before, I needed to be practical too so I added a topper big enough to hold a candle.Sold!


Great time, miss taking peeks of few other friends, Debi Beard and Dyanna C. I will catch you later! Better get ready for Saturday "Point Loma Home Tour".
Check out mercatino for next show dates and soldering classes.
Arrivederci Rita

  1. Rita, did you take all those pictures? I've rarely seen a single blog entry with so many beautiful shots. Sometimes it's the objects themselves, sometimes the light, sometimes the angle, and often all three factors at once, but whatever it is, it's all very pleasing to the eye.
    (By the way -- I don't know if you've seen it, but my second to the last entry featured something Italian that might interest you...)
    Take care!

  3. Debi was right about Sunday being the better day for the Mermaid's Mercantile. Wish I had known and gone on Sunday instead of Saturday. Oh well. I did my post yesterday on the INSIDE of Out of the Blue. My next post will be of a couple of the vendors from Saturday. I can't tell if they were there on Sunday as well.

    Anyway, I'm glad you had a good time. Love all the pictures!

    Hugs,
    Tamerie
