Winterfest 2011 ~

Welcome to our Tins and Treasures booth at
Aberdeen's 33rd annual Winterfest.
(Hubby is adjusting something with our antique cash drawer)
The doors opened at 10 am...we finished setting up at 9:55...

The lights in the arena are turned low and artists are required to light their own booth.
It makes for a very festive atmosphere.

We are still using my Grandma Hilda's old ironing board to showcase
smaller items in the center of our booth.
(see grandma Hilda's picture at the bottom my blog)

Displaying my Infinity Scarves proves to be a bit of a challenge.
Especially when everything else is primitive rustic.
I have old wooden hangers to drape them, like so...

Adding to the festive atmosphere...Holiday Jazz...
Do you recognize the musicians?
Today, it was the Jazz Trio.

Between jazz sets, high school students entertain us with
familiar Christmas Carols. 
I catch myself humming along!

Winterfest 2011
Talented artists...good food...great music...
There's something for everyone here! 

I hope you can stop by and say Hello.

Take care,
~Natalie

what a wonderful day you had. I hope you had much less to carry home. Were people in a shopping mood? (Rather a buying mood?) One could not help but feel holiday light in such a place.
