RITA READE "MAMMABELLARTE"

HOST OF THE VINTAGE MARKETPLACE AT THE OAKS IN RAINBOW, CALIFORNIA
WOODWORKER AND SOLDERING TEACHER.

Mar 6, 2011

Spring is in the air!

This last Friday and Saturday was our Chateau de Fleurs Market Place in Fallbrook California. Our 5th show and a really great one! The weather, the vendors, the customers, the sales were the best I ever seen. Christie had this vintage bicycle in the front entrance with a basket with lace and filled with azaleas. One of my favorite special touches.

Like every Chateau the vendors receive a goodie bag and this time we had the chocolatier Vonni make special chocolate bars for them.


Lisa Loria's special touches. Babies were every where....

I am working on a slide show with more photos of all the vendors. For now I wanted to share just a little bit of some of them. It was a great show!
Ciao for now
