It really is all about Pretty!

Well bless my soul ~
it looks like Bessie and Bea may have to take a road trip!
Just look at what is coming up in a couple short months...
it the Mother~of~all~shabby~chic-ish~sale, and it is taking place in the town of Coaldale in the heart of southern Alberta. We are sure, that our vintage-smart readers will simply swoon at the thought of attending the lovely Laura's event bursting forth with charming handmade lovelies and a whole lot more.

Why not plan to join the festivities on September 10 & 11. You won't be disappointed.
And who knows ... maybe you'll spot Bessie and Bea there too!

Bessie posts: Out of the Wild Blue Yonder




Bessie here. I just sat down a few moments ago to look at some paint samples I picked up at Canadian Tire recently and have myself a nice cup of Chocolatey Chai Tea (with a dollop of cream on top, of course). As I was sipping the "fragrant herbal blend of rich chocolatey taste and chai-inspired spices",
I pondered about what I should share with you all, my friends, today...

Poor Bea seems to be busier than a bee these days homeschooling, homemaking and making hallo-peno jelly, so I didn't want to bother her by phoning her for post ideas. Anyway, I thought I'd just make a mini announcement ~ while Bea's not looking. (Bessie smiles broadly)

We are planning our very first live event! You heard me right folks! For the past few weeks the two of us gals have been creating and conjurin' up some wonderfully artsy, shabby chic-ish, trash-to-treasure items. What for? I'll tell you what for! We're holding the first ever Wild Blue Yonder Christmas Gift Show at the Wild Blue Yonder Studios! You will have the opportunity to purchase some amazing one-of-a-kind items at ridiculously low prices, there'll be door prizes and you'll get to meet and greet the lovely, the talented, Bessie and Bea!
I shan't tell you anything more, other than the date for this event which is October 24 &25, 2008. Do watch for further particulars, right here at Creative Sandwich in the coming days. Now excuse me while I go work on some pretty, pretty items for the show!
Love,
Bessie
P.S. Take a very close look at the beautiful paint sample names ~ can you spot the ironic surprise?
