Vintage Chicks Spring Faire - SNEAK PEEKS!

Well our dream is fast approaching, with less then 2 months away, we're super excited to have found amazing vendors right in our own back yard! Our faire isn't going to be just any old sale either, it’s a new style of show to western Canada that will be uniting antiques/collectibles with arts/crafts, a lovely combination, (if we do say so ourselves) stunningly displayed, by very talented & creative women. 
from Pam - Wow and Then

“The Vintage Chicks Spring Faire” is a collaboration of reloved or restyled vintage treasures and lovely art for your home and garden. Our offerings are inspired by days gone by when people had less but cherished more. With boutique-like displays brimming with charming handmades, collectibles/curiosities, repurposed vintage finds and one-of-a-kind creations you’re sure to find something special that you won’t find in the big box stores. We truly believe in supporting local talent versus
overseas mass production.  

So whether you like cottage, retro, country, rustic, shabby chic, French, movie glam, farmhouse garden or eclectic you’re sure to discover a treasure or two. So make sure to save a few $$ after the Millarville Farmer's Market and pop by the Priddis Community Hall on your way home.

from Laura - all about Pretty!

We delight in the hopes to inspire, nourish your soul, delight your senses, and encourage you to take joy in adding a little beauty to your home and life!


We'll be featuring vendors and posting sneak peeks here until the big day, when we hope to see you all there!

ONE WORLD ONE HEART!


Welcome! This is our first time doing One World One Heart so we're thrilled and looking forward to meeting fellow "Vintage Chicks".  Just leave a comment (make sure we have a way to reach you) and we'll enter your name in the hat. We'll do the draw on Feb.15 so get your comments in by then.

We thought we'd giveaway some vintage stuff so have a peek, some vintage lace, a sweet doll, millinery flowers, cabinet cards & pretty velvet.






GOOD LUCK!
We would also like to spread the news about our new show coming up. We were very inspired by the Farm Chicks show and could not seem to find anything like it in Canada. So we are starting up a new style of show for Canada - The Vintage Chicks Spring Fair in Priddis, Alberta and we believe it will be the first of its kind in Canada. We hope you will be able to make it, please stop in and say Hi.  Also we are still looking for vendors if you're interested just email us for a vendor application.

what a great day!

Well we did it, we set up for our very first Vintage Chicks sale and it looked so pretty if I do say so myself, regardless of the crazy Lethbridge wind. I'm a little late posting but right after the sale I had to head out to Portland for an art retreat which was fabulous! We're so excited about the big Priddis June 2010 show coming up fast, hope to see you there. We might have a spontaneous sale before Priddis and will post any details of upcoming sales here. Also we're looking for more vendors so if you know of any creative collectors/restylists/artists, please send them our way, merci.































and after a hard days work I made Pam a lovely dinner
secret recipe...

Alphagetti!!!

God bless,

Are you a Vintage Chick?
