3 Vendor Booths - Tour my Farmhouse & Cottagecore Displays - DIY, Thrift & Handcrafted for Profit

Join me as I take you on a tour of my 3 vendor booths. You will find items that I've thrifted, flipped and handcrafted in my booths. I've created vignettes which feature both farmhouse and cottagecore displays. I'll be doing fall resets in the coming weeks so I wanted to give you a peak prior to that! Which booth was your favorite? Let me know in the comments!
Enjoy!

I've just wathced this video again and I like your three booths. In the YE OLD GOAT, love the openess and the red barn wall. In the ANTIQUE UP, love the carpet that complements everything you have in the booth and love the two dressers you have. They are beautiful. Finally, in the WATER STREET VINTAGE, love the old secretary, the blue dresser and the fact that you have been able to put so many pieces in such a small space and not making it feel overwhelming.

[@gabby7882]

Antique Up, but when I saw the ladder overhead with the lights perched on it over two doors, I broke out in goose pimples. You have some of the most delightful unique inspiring items. That was a lot of work and I wish you well.

[@JB-sl7vv]

They all had the same items. Overload on that artwork. Nice presentation. Very clear to see everything & well organized.💖

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@wandablaylock3352]

I honestly like the smaller one best! It was more homey and welcoming. Love your barn quilts

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@dawnphillips9386]

The smallest of your booths is my favorite because it was full of things to look at!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you! The smallest is very easy to keep full!!

[@janicepowell6066]

My favorite is booth number 2. I love the bright colors against the black background. Also I love the faux fireplace.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@elisayager634]

I liked the smallest one too. Beautiful barn quilts, beautiful assortment of smalls. Great video. Good luck at Cranberry fest!!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you!! I’m very excited about Cranberryfest!! I’m going to do a video on the whole experience!!

[@janrankin2457]

My favorite is the Goat booth. I still love all three. Have a wonderful day

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you!! 🤗❤️

[@jonicravens7940]

I like Water St. the best of the 3 shown nice and full and well displayed.

[@marshakelly6263]

I love the barn quilts.

[@judyparks5016]

Beautiful booths! Beautifully displayed items! You work really hard Sonnet! Tyfs. HUGS

[@heathermacleod7068]

Love all three. Seriously. Your fire place looks amazing in your booth. Love it. Can’t wait for you to teach us how to make a barn quilt!!!! Definitely looking forward to that!!!!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you!! 🤗 I’ll be doing a video on the barn quilts after I’m done with my shows.

[@maggieflatt9686]

I love the first booth the best. You have a wider variety of items, and it seems open and airy.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@conniesisco6468]

I liked the smallest one the best. I think it’s because I like the barn quilts the best and it looked full of them.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I definitely need to restock the barn quilts in my other booths!!

[@lisae1834]

They’re all great! But I think I’m leaning towards the first one.

[@marthajones1506]

I love the first one the most, but they are all three lovely. You are very talented at what you do. Love your videos.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you! The first booth will be receiving a makeover very soon!!

[@victorianladyone4362]

The smallest booth was a favorite because I think you maximized the space and everything looked terrific in that space because of your placements!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!!🤗❤️

[@shadygardens2256]

I like these booth tours and also the display videos. But I did love the signs video too!

[@christinechapleau1275]

Love your Barn quilts!

[@tinag2921]

I love your barn quilt pieces! They're so beautiful! Really fun to see your booths!

[@virginia7612]

The smallest one is my favorite. The barn quilts give a pop of color in each booth. I do like the stenciled crocks.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗

[@janb5800]

Loved the water street vintage its cozy and lots to see.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!!😘❤️

[@robincivis9501]

Hi Sonnet!! Yes, I love them all!!! But if I could only visit one I'd plan on Ye Old Goat. You have such an eye for color and that speaks to my heart!!!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you! I can’t wait to show everyone the transformation when I flip the booths into fall!

[@ellengill514]

I really like them all.

[@sharongodwin1477]

Sonnet, your booths are like Disneyworld for adults!!! They are all beautiful and I could spend all day in there. I've already watched the video 3 times just to get ideas for my little booth! You are a hard worker and it shows! Great job.

[@judylivingston6413]

I heard you talk about barn quilts, and had no idea what you were talking about! I thought a regular quilt with a barn theme😆! Now I get it! They are gorgeous!!!

[@judylivingston6413]

By the way, the smallest was my fave!

[@sheenadavis5422]

I love them all but number three I loke best!!

[@jennynordin2730]

I loved them all.

[@beckyhett66]

[@leaklein498]

[@pamelafox7677]

[@janetellinger9605]

[@brendaweaver2997]

The smallest booth is my favorite.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@anitabarker3125]

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

You are too sweet!! Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@charlotted6247]

You definitely know what you are doing and you are very good at it. I just cant tell you enough how crazy beautiful your signs are !! The wall quilts are my favorite. The very large round black , cream and red wooden quilt is stunning!! Idk how you get so much work done!!! You don't fill your booths with junk, it's all high quality stuff!!!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Awe!! Thank you! I have definitely mastered multitasking!! Thank you for always watching!! 🤗❤️

[@loriweitzel]

Yay! Now I know what a vendor booth is! So cool! But how to you manage 3 booths, do shows, shop til you drop, do KZbin videos, etc., etc.??? 😆

[@donnawall6922]

I LOVED BOOTH #2....

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@jodyshafer4953]

I think your smallest booth is ADORABLE! How do you keep 3 booths stocked with thrifting, flipping, diy-ing & doing your videos!? I think you are amazing & I love all your projects and videos! Thx for sharing❤️

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗 I sometimes wonder how I do it all!! 🤣 I really wish there were more hours in a day!! But honestly I just try and multitask as often as I can!

[@mssarahc4085]

The Barn Quilts pieces are beautiful Sonnet 👍

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Awe!! Thank you!! 🤗❤️

[@Diane56ful]

It’s really hard to pick just one. They all are beautiful! I have a retail booth for 9 years now. We do very well. It’s so much fun. You really have an eye for detail. Just beautiful. Keep up the good work!❤️❤️

[@cherylmarrantclmfarm8264]

I like the smallest one. I like a really full both. It’s very full but everything shows great

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

It’s very easy to keep a smaller booth looking really full! I’m trying to fill up my other 2 booths but I’m selling faster than I can fill it up! It’s a good problem but I’ll eventually get them full!

[@kathleenmay6711]

Eye candy! They are all to die for Sonnet and I love how you take thrifted treasures group them together and they blend perfectly together ❤️😍❤️

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you!! 🤗❤️

[@marypoole2393]

Sure wish you lived near me I know I would of bought some of your things. Great job displaying everything. If you lived in Ny by me your stuff would go really fast. Hope you continue to do well.👍⭐️⭐️❤️

[@rhondasales5176]

Hate decision but I must say the first one just because of the items in there and all the black and white. Tyfs

[@leisapullar3312]

Wow so much hard work you can really see it in your booths. Love how you have put them together ❤💜💚

[@karonwostenholme6533]

Cosey number 3 booth. All are lovely x

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@wandasue52case86]

I, too, liked all three. If they are all three in different locations, then you have to think about what "type" of items sell best in each local. Also, something may appeal to one area more than the othere. The buyers will be your inspiration. Add fresh items sometimes and swap things from locations the next time. Customers will let you know what they like most. Looks like you have a very good verity in each. God bless your business.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗 yes they are in 3 different locations!

[@kathibell2428]

I just can't pick a favorite booth.They're all just beautiful. It's fun to see some the recycled items I watched you do on previous videso. You items are so wonderful. Thanks so much for sharing your journey.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@andreatrantham1377]

I’m waiting to flip my booth about mid August too!

[@mssarahc4085]

I like Booth 2, the dark walls accents your items

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you! 🤗❤️

[@juliemoore8114]

LOVE all 3 but the first one is my favorite. I am in love with all your chippy furniture pieces you use for shelving. It's hard to find and VERY expensive here in Texas to get beautiful pieces like that! Thanks for the tour. You are soooo talented and I am looking forward to learning how to make the barn quilts!

[@vickyhaggerty763]

Liked all three, I could have spent money in each one of them.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@WowThingsThrift]

Great video ✌️

[@saundrabattles3017]

I love all three! You have a talent for making it and putting it all together! Great job!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Awe! Thank you!! 🤗❤️

[@smschupp]

All of your booths look amazing. I absolutely love your barn quilts.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you!! 🤗❤️

[@nicolespeed3447]

I love the second booth because of the black wall and that awesome green display. I am obsessed with the circle barn quilts, and the Rainbow sunshine sign you had in two of the booths was swoon worthy! I love your use of color throughout.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Awe! Thank you!! 🤗❤️

[@skylaanderson8424]

All 3!! But I’m voting for water street! Those barn quilt boards!!! Love love them all! Still waiting on that video!! 💗

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗 I’ll be doing a video on the barn quilts after my shows are over.

[@karidubois255]

All of your booths are fantastic! We are going to Cranberry Fest 🤗

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Yay!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@averysnest2745]

Your Booths looks amazing! I enjoyed watching your video! I like how you stagged your pieces! For the second booth, the green shelving with the soap needs a few more items on it. Also, as a suggestion place a few of the soap in like that white wire basket, set a plate of soaps on the dresser, table or a few in the brown plate with the cloch. Stage it with other pieces; in different areas in your booth so that customers see it throughout the booth and will take note of it!

[@tinapollock1111]

They are all awesome! I think my favorite is the first one tho. I love all the color and it goes together so well. You really have an eye for this. Good luck at cranberry festival! Sounds very fun. So classy!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Awe! Thank you!! 🤗❤️

[@jenniferadams9267]

The small booth was my favorite!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗

[@jewelcurrie8709]

Thank you for sharing. I don’t know how you are managing all your booths plus a large show….when do you sleep??!

[@margieclements6177]

Hard decision! But I think I like booth 2! Love your barn quilt boards! Would love to have one! You certainly been busy! Good luck and can't wait to see the fall booth! Thanks for sharing

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗 I’ll be doing a video on the barn quilts after my shows are done.

[@kathyhaynes6818]

Booth #2 - Antique Up! With the dark walls, it's much easier on the eyes and feels less overwhelming. It also makes your colorful barn quits "pop"!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗 ❤️

[@tammybaker7629]

Last booth and first big booth.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@bettymontes4272]

Hi...Love your booths! Can you please do a tutorial on you quilt block wall decor.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗 I’ll be doing a video on the barn quilts after my shows are done.

[@maryannemorrison2699]

Very nice all of them. I wonder what things sell the best? How often do you have to refresh your inventory when sales are hot? I have never done a booth for craft things. Very interesting.

[@terrybazin8067]

Thank you for the tour. Gorgeous booths. I follow a few KZbin channels. Yours is the only one I follow which use the vibrant colors. I for one love all color as well as the white farmhouse. Bri uses more muted colors but I like that too. I like how you do your furniture upcycles. I'm going to try to get to your Appleton location August 31. Does the barn quilts have a certain meaning other than just the beauty behind them?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️ Hoping you get to the ye old goat!! You’ll love all the vendor booths!!

[@claudineclaudinehamon2300]

Difficult to say which one I prefer. You have really pretty items, flips, creations... But, to my eyes, it was a bit too mixed, color items, neutral, fake flowers... But if what sells and please customers, keep setting up that way 😉😉 Personally I prefer themed set ups, but that's just my taste 😉😊

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Everyone has there own taste! I try to have a mix of items and it seems to sell! Themes are awesome! I’m sure your booths are beautiful!!

[@kathibell2428]

I adore your barn quilts and would love to know your process for painting them on the wood rounds. Is that something you would share?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you!! 🤗 I plan on doing a future video on the quilts but I hand draw all the designs by hand. No stencils…just some math and a ruler!! That is my number 1 question if it’s a stencil.

[@kathibell2428]

WOW! Thanks for such a super quick response. You make it sound easy. What type of paint do you use. Chalk, acrylic, stain?

[@justinelord95]

May I ask how much you sold the larger home signs for thankyou love your work 😊 wish you were here in New Zealand 😊

[@robinprestage987]

I love the small one. Did you make your barn quilts? I would love to make me some

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗 yes I mss as me the quilts and will have a video on them after my shows are done.

[@karenwink7313]

I LOVE your barn quilts. Do you prefer to work on wood planks or MDF?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you! I use wood planks.

[@kathyihle9275]

New London

[@talentonboard2456]

I like all of them. Do you make all the earrings and soaps too? How do you know how much to charge for stuff?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you!! 🤗 yes, I make all the items in my booth! I add up the cost and time and try to get at least 3x’s that. I then look at my competition and see what they are charging and if I’m in the correct price range.

[@kellymattson2102]

What one of of your booths have the transfers,molds and inlays

[@dianelehoux-lavergne4275]

No 3 lots of small thing very cosy

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗

[@missyrnmissyrn7479]

#3

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗❤️

[@supercrane01]

I’m wondering how much of what’s in your booth remains a constant (not for sale). Are all of the plants for sale or are some of them decor for the booth. I’m just about 1 year in.

[@maryjotranghese1908]

i am having a very difficult finding a vendor outlet. i don't really want to do etsy. any ideas?

[@anitabarker3125]

How do you do the signs that look like a quilting star.?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I’ll be posting a video on the barn quilts in the near future…most likely after my shows are done. ❤️

[@sandilargent4585]

What happens to the inventory in your booths that don"t sell? Do you have other ways to move your merchandise? I'd be terrified that I would end up with a warehouse full of stuff that didn't sell?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I never have a problem with any of my inventory not selling. If I find a piece hasn’t moved at one location I move it to another booth and can almost guarantee it will sell there! Thank you for watching!! 🤗

[@bettynickelson779]

Do you sell by foot traffic or online

[@bettynickelson779]

What does that cost 16x30

[@agathadavis6735]

The smallest one

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching!! 🤗

[@karenfoster6093]

Do u ship out of ur booths

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Yes I can ship out of my booths.

[@cottageparkcreations]

Do you work other than this business? Why have three booths vs one large booth?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

The booths are in very different areas so that is why I have 3…they all get different clientele!

[@nicolecapote1724]

For Monday's video, why not kill two birds with one stone and show us what you're making for your upcoming event and how you make your inventory in batches? What has sold the best in the past?

[@LucyAuburn]

I love your creativity and videos but that drum music in the background has got to go!!!

[@reginaalbanese6545]

Far too early

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I agree far too early for a Fall flip!!
