With the Polka Dot Flea just 3 months away I have been busy checking projects off my To-Do list
Since the Flea will triple in size this year we need to add a second ticket booth
Since I wanted the new booth to match last years booth, I used more salvaged fence boards that I dry brushed with paint
For the "Ticket" sign, I used my jigsaw to cut the shape then did the letter graphics on my computer. The words and graphics were done on 4 different sheets of paper that I printed out. The graphics were then transferred to the board using the "Blender Pen" transfer method. You can see this method HERE at Graphics Fairy
The ticket booth can be easily unassembled and reassembled at the show
It is a smaller version of this booth we built last year
You can see how last years booth was built here HERE
At last years Polka Dot Flea we had a line out the door until 1:30 in the afternoon....Hopefully a second booth will move the line faster this year
Ticket Booth Done....Check
Vendor Tags Done......Check
Next on my list.......The big display for the entrance of the Polka Dot Flea.
Last year I built this dock scene
So.....What am I building for the grand entrance display this year?
The clue is in the poster......Can you guess?
Stay tuned
Happy Creating
Carol
It's looking good, Carol. Good thing you'll have a second booth because I'll be standing in that line this time!
ReplyDeleteYour booth looks amazing Carol! You have so many great ideas that just amaze me. I love the giant ticket! Hmmmm, I bet there will be a bike and a manni for your outdoor display?
ReplyDeletethat giant ticket is awesome
ReplyDeleteCarol.....

SO smart to have a second booth, Carol. I remember that display from last year...and I am betting it is bikes and old fashioned luggage this year?
ReplyDeleteI SO wish I could be there in person! Darn it all! xo Diana
Very smart and thoughtful to have a second ticket booth. Get those customers inside where they can be SHOPPING and spending their money! You are so clever to make lists and check them off. I can almost visualize your grand entrance work of art...poster clue fun!
ReplyDeleteYou are so incredibly organized! Hmm, what could you be building this year?
ReplyDeleteTHREE times as big - wow!!! You are rocking this. I'm guessing some kind of bicycle theme?
ReplyDeleteoh so cute Carol!!
ReplyDeleteYou are not only talented, but quite enterprising and as someone said, organized. I would love to attend and who knows? Maybe some day?
ReplyDeleteDeb
I just love what you did ... Who needs a guy around when you can handle a jigsaw!
ReplyDeleteKudos to you! You are amazing!
I just loved the booth you built last year and this one is just as fabulous. I can't wait to see the entrance display.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol. Wow before I read "the clue is in the poster" . . . I was thinking . . bike, suitcases, flowers. I can't wait to see what you come up with. Your ticket booth is wonderful and very good thinking to have two this year. Everyone will appreciate getting through your long line a lot faster. You're so smart! Not only in all the incredible decorating ideas and project make-overs that you do, but in merchandising.
ReplyDeleteWay to go, girlfriend!
Have a lovely day and don't work too hard.
Connie :)

Hi Carol, Love the huge ticket and the version of the larger booth. You are so talented and I have not doubt the new entry display will be amazing.
ReplyDeleteHave fun getting ready. It won't be long now!!
Hugs, CM
Of course (I am so fan of your creations) I love your new tickets booth ! I tried to make a brain storming with my poor head to find THE clue ! Because Carol you didn't put an S so there is only one thing to guess ! It could be dress forms you're so gifted with them, suit-cases funny to superpose, old bicycles for a smiling ride, what else ? In fact every thing you listed on your poster ! So As we say in France "I give my tongue to the cat".
ReplyDeleteXoxo from PARIS
It is the perfect match to the first booth! I'm excited!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Amy Jo
Looking good Carol!

Wow Carol! The booth looks great! I feel like I am missing out by not being able to work with you this time!! But I have two tears in the meniscus on my right knee, and still have plantar fasciitis!! So...standing for 2 days just won't work! I am praying that it's a huge success, and am with you in spirit!! Hopefully, I can come out and shop!! Keep up the great work! You are amazing!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Becky
