Creating The Farm Chicks Fair 2013 Installation
The 2013 Farm Chicks Antiques Fair went off without a hitch. I had such a fun time pulling everything together. The theme this year was "Forage for Finds". I wanted it to have a fresh-from-the-forest woodsy feel. It all started with the show poster and postcard,...

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!
