minutes of your time. Follow me on Instagram and tag a friend in my contest photo to get your 1st ballot. Receive a 2nd ballot by reposting the contest photo and tagging @marissahowes and #charmingshop. AND get a 3rd for following me here on my blog, CharmingShopLife! It's up to you how many ballots you choose to get, but the 1st Instagram follow and tag is mandatory.

This contest is in effect until Aug. 31st 2013, and open  to Canada and the US only. I'm very sorry to those of you who live elsewhere. I will have different contests in the future. Once the contest ends, I will choose my winner! I will announce the Winner and then ask for your email. From there I will correspond with you privately for shipping info. Your prize will be shipped through Canada Post/ regular mail. I will pay shipping. It's your prize after all! Prize will not be shipped right away. If you unfollow/ delete photo, your ballot and prize will be forfeited.

The last rule? Tell all your friends! If I happen to get over 100 of you lovely people entering, I will do two giveaways instead of one. Everyone has equal opportunity. If you're already following me, don't worry. All you need to do is tag a friend to get your first ballot. Just remember the Initial Instagram follow and tag is very important because once I see your username, I put your name in my real life ballot box. Make sure I know you have entered by doing that first!

Entering this contest says you agree to all my terms and conditions. Please let me know if you have any questions! You deserve this prize! Thank you for all your support. It makes me so happy to see how much you enjoy my work.

Good luck to you!

Winnipeg Red Diver Farmers Market - Dates for CharmingShop

Happy long weekend, lovelies! As I told you last weekend was my very first Farmers Market day. It was busy and I got a fantastic response to my table, which was truly inspirational for me. I snapped a few shots. I apologize in advance for the blurriness and in all, very bad photos. My table was in front of the window, which was great for me, because it helped me stay warm all day, but it didn't make for the best photos. I took these just before packing up for the day. People came earlier than I expected, so my initial photo shoot time was put on hold. Check 'em out!

 

I was right beside the Tupperware table! It was so hard not to peek over and look at all the neat things!

P.S. Did you know they make replacement lids for vintage Tupperware?! That is so awesome!

It was wonderful to be able to chat with some great people. Just having nice conversations with customers about retro items they own or have owned was so fun. I talked with an older lady about her fabulous collection of 1900s to 1920s jewellery. I got vintage and jewellery lovers of all types. I really enjoy finding out how other people celebrate history and embrace the heirlooms life passes to us, whether we seek it out or it's given to us from family. We are so lucky to be able to collect old treasures. And because my whole shop focusses on the past, I'm so thankful to be reminded of my passion day in and day out. If you've got a treasure, I want to know about it! 

If you live in Winnipeg and the surrounding areas, come out and see me at the Red River Farmers Market on Saturdays! I will be there tomorrow (August 3rd), Aug. 10th, Aug. 17th and Aug. 24th! If you just want to say hi or check out my jewellery or art, come on down! 

I just wanted to give you a heads up, because GUESS WHAT?

My jewellery and artwork is cheaper than what it would be in my shop. No shipping costs, because you're right there in person to take it home with you! Pretty awesome, huh? I think so. 

I hope you come and enjoy my candy-coloured 50s fantasyland!

See you there!
