There are two wonderful Vendor Shopping places near me. The Name of the Vendor Mall is called Rustic Fox.
They have two locations which I will add at the end of the post. If you live near either of these places you can visit for yourself. If you don't live in Illinois, no worries they also have on line shopping. If you see something in my post you can inquire about it on their website.
I do not get compensated in anyway for showing these places. I just love that small business is alive and well all in one place.
I like to support small business and the two vendor malls give you a chance to shop the many vendors in one place.
I will show you some of the vendors but this is only a few of the many vendors in each mall. |

| I like the saying on the wall of this vendor. This vendor sells great smelling candles. I agree "you can never have too many candles". |
 |
| Are you a rustic western cowgirl. Well this is your booth. |
 |
| Have an up coming girls night or just want some fun mixes this vendor has some yummy dips, bread mixes and drink mixes. |
 |
| Are you a cat or dog lover this booth has lots of homemade treats and toys just for your pets. |
 |
| Many of the vendors have a lot of fall decor coming into their booths. I am a summer girl but I have to tell you with this wacky and scary weather we have had here in Illinois this summer, I am ready for fall to come soon. |
 |
| I loved the handprinted chairs and little garden table in this booth. |
 |
| Love the retro booths and the unique pieces. |
 |
| This is one of my favorite vendors. She always sells the cutest and unique tops and sweaters. |
 |
| Terry was with me on this trip and he spied this oak vintage desk. He really wanted it for his office and it was marked down quite a bit. Score!!!!! |
 |
| Just so you know it is not getting a coat of white paint lol! He likes the natural oak wood. |
 |
| All the locks on each drawer came with the Skelton key. All of them lock. Another big Score on this piece. |
 |
| This oak is really nice and we both loved that all the drawers move nicely and lock with the key that came with the desk. Kind of rare to find a piece like this that has the key and all the locks work. |
 |
| This is another favorite vendor. She always has the most unique items at each holiday. |
 |
Two of these came home with me. I usually do not decorate for Halloween but my daughters do. I think these will be so cute. These will be adorable to hang inside or on the front porches.
If you live near North Aurora or Carol Stream Illinois you must make a trip to visit these vendors.
They are going to be having a girls night open house for fall coming up soon. You can get the information on the websites I provided below.
Have a great week

Goodness, but that looks like an amazing place! I bet you had fun browsing. Love the oak desk Terry got. It is perfect for his space. And a big score that the drawers work and lock! It’s a definite treasure.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what your summer has been like, but I am over summer here. We’ve entered the scorching dry and 100+ days. Ugh. Hurry up Fall!

That looks like an amazing place Kris! Love Terry's new desk - it really looks at home in his office space. Hugs, Gilly (UK)
ReplyDeleteOh how fun!! I think I could get lost in that mall all afternoon and probably drop some big money. Wish I lived closer! Love the desk, what a find! All the doors in our house lock with skeleton keys. I think they're so charming. Glad you had a fun weekend!! xo
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing that wonderful mini mall. It is SO WELL decorated, and each little shop looks so neat and tidy and well put together! I too could spend hours in there! I would have left with many things I'm sure! Love the desk that Terry found. How perfect for his office. I love all those poos if orange in the shops. Really puts me in the mood for Fall. I'm already Fall crafting!! Marilyn
ReplyDeleteI need to eventually visit these two places! Both are pretty close to where my mom lives. I love the oak desk that Terry got for his office. I'm glad you are not painting it! It is perfect just the way it is.
ReplyDeleteKris, I am so sorry I m late to read and comment. The oak desk is perfect for Terry’s office, and a great find! I could spend a day in the mall and I would be tempted to spend too much. Thanks for sharing, you have access to wonderful shopping!
ReplyDeleteGreat desk!! They don't make 'em like that anymore!! What a great little corner he has with all his memorabilia!
ReplyDeleteOh! What fun shops. We don't have anything like that here...welcome to Wisconsin. lol. I love that first picture and have to see if they have that online. You did a great job showcasing those places. Was either one of those where you had one of your girlfriend parties a few years ago? That was a great place, too.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend-love you, my friend. xo Diana
Hi. I’m crazy happy to see you live so close to where I live now! I haven’t blogged since 2022 but am just getting ready to return. I left Texas in 2019 when my husband died and have been living right near you. I live in Shorewood Illinois now and just went thru Carol Stream today. Great shops. Can’t wait to go. Ps. Life goes on. I met a great guy in 2023 and we’ve been happily married for 2 years this month.
ReplyDeleteHope you come back to read this. I had no way to personally email you. I hope you return to blogging and so sorry to hear about the passing of your husband. Glad you found new love in your life. Shorewood is so close to me. I love the Home Goods and Target there. Thank you for stopping by. Hugs. Kris
DeleteHi Kris, what lovely vendors and so much to look at. I love Terry's new desk and it looks great in the office. His side of the office is decorated so nice! I hope you have a wonderful September!!
