A Thank You, My Booth, a Gift, and a Party

Thank you all for the sweet comments of prayers, stories, and scriptures concerning my sister and the loss of her home.  She was able to read all the comments, and they certainly offered much comfort to her during this difficult time.  Thank you for taking the time to respond, and I appreciate all of your support here at Three Pixie Lane.  You all are the best!

My poor booth (as well as my blog) has felt the neglect during the last several weeks!  I finally got to spend some time reorganizing and adding some new (old) things for spring.  My favorite things are the vintage picnic baskets and vintage phonics cards.  We recently helped my in-laws clean out some things from their house and a full stack of these cards were in the 'get rid of' pile! 

 I am planning to host a Picnic Party here at Three Pixie Lane!  International Picnic Day is June 18th and the month of July is National Picnic Month.  Some of the great baskets in the booth belong to one of my partners, and I may just go back and snag them in order to celebrate!  Stayed tuned for the details! 
May 18th marks my one year anniversary at Three Pixie Lane!  To show my appreciation to all of you who so kindly stop by for a visit, I am giving away a wonderful new picnic basket filled with some fun items!  I will share pictures soon and do a post for all of you to have a chance to win!

See you soon!


I will be joining these sites for their weekly parties.  Please stop by for a visit!
Thank you to all who host these parties!

    I love picnics and look forward to participating in your picnic party! I love picnic baskets! Actually, truth be told, I have a wee bit of an addiction to picnic baskets. Speaking of, I see several in the booth that I would love to snag!

    I love stopping by and looking at all of your interesting pictures! What fun treasures you have. :) I especially love your scrolled music wreaths. I may have to make one for myself. I love all of your picnic baskets too. My Mom used to pack picnics a lot, during the summer, and take us kids to the park to play, eat, and even feed the ducks. Such fun memories.

    Darling set-up in your booth! My little booth doesn't even come close--gave me some great ideas to redecorate my little space. Sales for me are slow right now but spring-fever will hit soon and people will be out lookin' to buy! Good-luck!

    We girls at the fence have missed you so much Christie! It's like a little piece of sunshine is missing from blogland when you are absent. Your sister has been in our prayers, I'm so glad she has you for support! Everything in your shop is so darling, wish I could come shop there. It was great to see you at Inspiration Friday! Can't wait for your picnic party..you know we'll be there!

    Christie, I am soooo far behind on my blog visiting. I didn't know anything about your sister's house. I am so sorry.

    Oh, how I'd love to visit your booth. Everything looks so wonderful ~ so creatively displayed, which is no surprise. I'm afraid your booth and my wallet would both be empty if I were able to visit it. thank you for linking to Favorite Things. laurie

    Oh, no! Now I KNOW I need to do some catching up! I'm so sorry your sister lost her home. Thank goodness she has you to hold her up during this time of sorrow.

    By the way, the booth is looking great.
