Sharri Baldy & her magic shoes! She created these beauties & even though I hate my feet… I could covet these shoes! Sharri’s treasures were too much to behold. I MUST take one of her crown classes so I can create MORE THAN ONE for myself! Click HERE & HERE to see more about this talented Fairy Princess!

And above is Dyanna’s Table. I don’t even want to tell you how much I spent there!!!!!!!!! My credit card is still quivering in shock from this event… Kim’s choice in Vendors was once again amazing. And of course I picked up MANY goodies from my buddy Deb Hodges which you will see posted later.

I hope you have enjoyed my beginning glimpse into Artistic Affaire Moulin Rouge. I know I am behind in getting this posted but, remember I wasn’t home but 2 days (& sick as a dog) before I started having company arrive to go to Round Top Antique Festival. I hope you will come back soon for the next part of Moulin Rouge & then on to Round Top.


I want to thank all the generous girls who shared their photos in the Flicker Group that was set up to share photos from the event. Many of the girls have their names on the photos so you can see who took them. Also, many are mine. And to my generous Hubby who blesses me with the opportunity to attend so many amazing events. And to the hostesses that create all the MAGIC!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!


Come back soon for more adventures!


HUGS! Charlene

Sweet Charlene, the memories we all shared will stay with me always! My most favorite part was the time, you, LuLu, Cynthia and I spent before the event as we got to know each other before the whirlwind of MR began. I love you my sweet new friend!
