Fun Vendor Shop

 


This is a fun shop with many great vendors.  I took a ride the other day to see what cute things they might have for the 4th. 

 

I love the chippy blue chair.  
Wish I had a place that lovely porch swing.
Each vendor has very unique items for sale.



Lots of really cute 4th of July items.


Cute ball jars painted and cute handmade flowers.

Look how cute this vendor did a yellow theme.  Love that sweet bunny.

This vendor uses beautiful antique displays for her clothes, purses and jewelry.  That armoire is pretty awesome.



I loved this collection of dog prints.



Guess what came home with me!



If you guessed the Chippy Nurses office sign you are correct!
Many of you know that I am a retired RN.
I started my career in Oncology  then went to working for a family practice with better hours since my girls were young.
Then when Terry took his first job as a fire chief I stopped working.
Mostly to help out with watching my first granddaughter.  OMG she is now 16 and driving.  Yikes the years go fast.
After that I worked as a sub RN in the school system.
This sign brought back many wonderful memories from my career.


Brought it home to have in my office.






I think it is a perfect addition to my office.  It's fun when you find treasures like this that you connect with and fit your decor perfectly.

Have a great rest of your week.
Hugs,
Kris

The name of the two locations is called Rustic Fox for any of you that live in Illinois.

  9. Kris, how nice. cute clothes, cute jars, adorable everything.
    My sister and I are both olden RNs. She would have loved this sign as much as you and me. Super great to have this!
    I started out in a Washington DC hospital upon graduation. They put me immediately in charge of a floor of long term patients, every thing from dementia patients, cancer, ventilators, lots of dementia patients. I lasted 9 months there. I worked evening shift and I always "left too late" I had to finish my notes of so many patients, I had about 8 nurse aides and they were never helping. I worked at a brand new hospital closer to my home for about three years, enough of that, and went to an office of orthopaedic surgeons and stayed there for about 8 years. Then I quit working. Enough of that!
    The last job was very demanding.
    The sign looks perfect in your office. I like your iMac too. I think hubbs gave our iMac to my nephew, during the various moving adventures (mom and dad's stuff moves x2, and ours to this new little house)
    Enjoy your summer. I am going to a fun gathering this afternoon at the community center, we are gonna make sun catchers. haha.
    I also tried a few classes of tai-chi, it is okay. I love having a screened in porch now!!
    Happy Summer, Kris!

And I think of all the displays, I LOVE the yellow one best! That dress is adorable and all the yellow things. Makes me want to have all yellow on my front porch! I love yellow and teal together...... Each vendor did a great job on decorating for this upcoming 250th anniversary holiday! How fun it was to go... you MUST have brought home some red, white and blue! Hugs.. Marilyn

  16. Kris, of COURSE that sign came home with you, perfect! Love the looks of the shop and the vendors' vignettes. We just recently styled my sister's private collection of vintage and antique medical items. It was emotional! I'll send you a link to our page on FB so you can see them. She had some really cool things.

  18. Well, if there was ever a perfect chippy sign for you- THAT is it!!! What a great fun find! That shop is wonderful! The yellow really popped out at me and made me smile at the brightness of it all. I have never really had much yellow but the last couple of years I have introduced it in the garden and I really like the way it pops.
    I hope you have a really wonderful weekend. I suppose everyone is getting together for Father's Day. Happy Father's Day to Terry from. me. Hugs and love to you- Diana
