Drowning in BOWS!

For the next three weeks I will be almost literally drowning in bows. July 9th is the Stroud International Brick and Rolling Pin Festival. It's really kind of a neat little celebration.


The festival is held between the four townships of STROUD in Canada, UK, USA and Australia. Here in Stroud, OK the festival starts with a parade, then there are competitions such as a rolling pin throw, brick toss, brick decorating contest, pie making and eating contest, a pageant, the list goes on.


There are also bands that play throughout the day, vendors, last year we had a car show and a pony ride. It's a really unique festival and fun for the whole family!


Anyway, this will be my first time setting up as a vendor. I've been making sure I have everything I need over the last couple of weeks and will be working on my inventory up through the 9th. I'm pretty sure I'll be drowning in bows and tutus at that point. I certainly hope to see lots of people out at the festival and I can't wait to meet customers, new and old!
