County Fair Themed Centerpieces
I recently had the opportunity to create a bunch of country fair themed centerpieces which were a fun way to incorporate a lot of the cute elements that you'd find at an old-fashioned country fair into decorations. The centerpieces were for this year's Girls Scouts...
How to Clean Vintage Quilts
I'll admit I have a soft spot worn-out quilts, often passed over because of stains and wear, and no longer desirable to many. And that's a shame. If you have a tiny bit of patience, these quilts can be given new life. The first thing I do when I bring home vintage...
Great Displays at The Farm Chicks Fair
I love a good retail display. As a young girl, I was a big fan of a store in my little town of Yreka, California, named Directions. There was a lady there by the name of Yoni who would create really great window displays that I would just stop and stare at. Later, in...
The Farm Chicks Adventure
For the last several years, my friend Katelynhas visited The Farm Chicks Fair, documenting it in her own special style. This year she did a great job capturing this year's ADVENTURE theme. Fun in line before the fair: Special little moments during the fair: The book...
Behind the Scenes of The Farm Chicks 2015
The 2015 Farm Chicks Fair was a lot of fun to pull together, especially with this year's "ADVENTURE" theme. My inspiration came from Moonrise Kingdom, Peter Pan, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and author Thornton Burgess. I usually conceive and create everything for Farm Chicks,...
Making The Farm Chicks 2015 Promo Campaign
This year I commissioned the talented Karli Ingersollfor the 2015 Farm Chicks Faircampaign. My theme was "Adventure". Karli liked the idea of creating a poster with a multi-layer textured effect and it really came through. Patches, stitching, fabrics, and papers were...
IT'S ME, SERENA!
In 2002, I was dreaming of creating a fun and happy little event to sell my vintage and handmade goods. In 2002, I held my first event in my neighbor's barn along with a handful of friends. The sale became wildly popular and began attracting visitors from across the country and recognition in national magazines. Today The Farm Chicks Vintage & Handmade Fair fills the Spokane County Fairgrounds and features hundreds of creatively and carefully curated spaces packed with vintage and handmade goods. Many describe it as a bucket list event, magical, inspirational, and the best event of its kind in the USA. I describe it as the best weekend of the year!

Natural Microwave Cleaner – Lemon Steamer
The microwave really needs a washing. This is what happens when children heat food until it explodes. I won't use cleaners that are full of chemicals because I don't want those fumes seeping into our food. Here's what I do instead. I remove the tray and give it a...
Decorating with White for Christmas
A great way to make a beautiful Christmas holiday display is to group all of one color together. I happen to love white. It's surprising how these items, none having anything to do with the other, can look so pretty together. Look around your house and see what you...
