Lilliedale Holiday Boutique

I am so ecstatic to report that my sale was a success! We had a great turn out and I sold pretty much everything. I am finally getting around to posting some pictures of the boutique, this is definitely a long post so grab a cup of coffee and come on in...



Welcome to the Lilliedale Holiday boutique



 Help yourself to a bite to eat. For appetizers we have chicken salad cups with cranberries and pecans, Brie in croute, and  jalapeño artichoke dip. On the sweeter side we have cookies, vanilla bean cup cakes or red velvet cupcakes...mmm


Care for a drink,  would you prefer a Kahlua-nog or a cranberry martini?



Now that you have a little nosh and cocktail in hand lets look around, shall we?

these are the only items that did not sell and I could't be happier because I really wanted them for myself

All in all things couldn't have gone better. I was not able to get photos of everything because we were busy and selling items right from the start. This week I am working on special orders placed at the sale and then I am off to spend part of the money on gifts for children in need. thank you for coming by and supporting my first venture in capitalism.

Oh yeah and I am linking this up to the brag Monday party at the Graphics Fairy. Karen at the Graphics Fairy is amazingly generous and has the best vintage graphics I've ever seen. If you've never been there you should check it out. I even get my blog layouts at her other site the Background Fairy.


Happy Christmas!
