Our First Show - Darlington Apple Festival!

Last weekend, Charms City Company made it's first debut at the Darlington Apple Festival!  http://www.darlingtonapplefest.org/

Leading up to the festival, the weather was terrible.  The Baltimore Inner Harbor flooded!  Luckily, the conditions cleared and brought a most beautiful, fall Saturday!  We trekked to Darlington early Saturday morning to set-up our booth.  We used pumpkins, tree branches, wire baskets and trays for display and decoration.  We received many compliments on our booth style!

Our first show was a success!  Vintage Key Necklaces were our hottest items!  Each key has so much unique character.  Those necklaces easily spruce up a casual outfit or compliment a dressy ensemble.

Using found and natural elements is very important to our business.  It also helps that we love the outdoors and checking out the local antique shops and flea markets.  There are so many ways to re-purpose old items.  Now it's just a matter of creativity and time!

We are applying for a few more festivals and shows.  Please continue to check back to see where we will be next!
