Today was Katie and Kelley's big day.They have been working nonstop building cool things for this boutique.  Then this morning they set up their booth.  They really put a lot of thought and planning into it, and even more work into tagging and recording every single piece that they made.  There really is a lot that goes into  putting a booth together.  
They had Lynn build this very cool sign to hang at their booth.  He is so amazing! 
Kate just busted out these cool christmas trees.  She made some that were green too that were really neat in all different sizes.  
They did neat octogon shelves,  and triangle shelves, real nice cutting boards, quilt ladders, candle holders, cool shaped boxes with succulents planted in them, wall hangers with cool knobs, and these cutest framed air fern things...really unique and fun things!


 They had this coolest barn door for their back drop.  The only problem was getting it in the building! They told Kate she could come early to set up because she had some bigger pieces to bring in, so we went over there about 8:00.  KC had class so he couldn't help, so Kelley asked Toby if he would help him lift this barn door.  Toby was so sweet to come right from work to help him. He is a peach! There is no way, Kate and I could have been strong enough to lift half of it. 
We were the first one's there to set up so Kelley was able to pull right up to the front doors with his trailer.  The girls that were running the boutique were really nice and helpful...they let us use their dolly to haul things to our spot which saved us a lot of trips.





Kelley made this beautiful bench for the show. He asked Lynn about doing some legs for it Monday morning, by about noon, Lynn comes over with them all finished!




This coffee table turned out really nice too.


Oh and these cork board were really nice!


Candice came over after class to help

















When we got everything arranged, it looked really nice! It was kind of exciting to be there with all the other vendors...they were very supportive and kind when they came around and looked at what we had made.
They had a little pre opening party for all of the vendors tonight where they could shop the booths and meet the other vendors.  She said several things had sold already so I hope that's a good sign of what the next three days will bring!  Doing a booth like this has been a ton of work for these two, but I think they have had a good time doing it and so many people come to these things, it will give them some great exposure.  I'm just proud as I can be of them!
