K.MARIE OPENS!

I DID IT!!!!!

(oK So MY aMaziNG daDdY AND  super special SiSter helped SO much
and they did it too!)

The windows were dressed!
&
Then it all began!
Easter has arrived!
Glitter, oh glitter, oh glitter!! 

Yummy papers, cards, ribbons, oh my!
A few of my own k.marie creations!
(To be honest, I am working away
 on many more for this weekend since these are all gone!)
Antiques and a glittery eiffel tower!
(I had to have an eiffel tower it just wouldn't be right without one) 
k.marie glitter, ephemera, vintage,  
and paper mache to create
your own glitteries!

It was all here this weekend with more to come and share in the following weeks (yep, more vintage and treasures have arrived for this upcoming weekend). 
 I had one of those moments in life this weekend that has filled my soul with so much joy and a list of feelings that I don't think I can completely describe.....

It's like when I watched one of my favorite people
"jumping up and down in the middle of the store"
another
"honey I am so proud of you"
or
"you have followed your dream"
and
"love you"
then
"oh my gawd"
seriously
"I want it all"
and
"It is so you!"
then the very special
"Your mom would be so proud of you"
(makes me cry the good tears every single time)

I am very blessed to have such amazing friends and family,
and truly some of the most supportive fans of k.marie.
Each time someone tells me about a creation of mine that they already own
or that they love reading this blog and my ramblings
I AM IN AWE!
This glittery community of creative people is the very best in the world!!!
You are inspiring and amazing to me and I say to you....
Bubbles, giggles, and glitter!!!

PS: Hope to see you this weekend!
k.marie is open
Saturday March 10th, 9:00-6:00

K.MARIE OPENS THIS WEEKEND....AND I AM BRAGGING ABOUT MY SISTER

PART ONE
FIRST THE BRAGGING
Enchante' is in this month's

There was a photo shoot done just about a year ago and some of the most beautiful pictures were taken by the wonderful Tiffany Kircher-Dixon, The Fancy Farm Girl of Enchante'
I am so proud to the be the big sister of Kimberly Keehner and just love sitting and staring at the photos and reading the beautiful article. 
Our mom would be so proud of this girl!!
You did good kid! 
Trust me...
(insert Kimmi's nickname here, except if I put it in print she would kill me)
Mom is very proud of you, and by the way so is your sister! 
And then there is your dad who just keeps showing everyone the magazine
he's so proud of his little girl!
You have become one amazing lady!!!
I am lucky to be your sister. 

PART TWO
K.MARIE
There is a fun twist to this story....
Kimmi has since moved the location of Enchante'
just 5 doors away from the original location. 
The new spot is well..... 
spectacular
and I swear Kimmi does the happy dance everyday before she opens the doors. 


Here is the twist...
It was so sad to see that great old building sit empty
after so much joy and happiness was in it for the last 80 years....
So I made the decision to open a retail store
GUESS WHERE????
Oh yes you did guess correctly.....
K.MARIE 
is now in this magical old building
I know right????

OPENING WEEKEND IS
SATURDAY MARCH 3RD
9:00AM-6:00PM
SUNDAY MARCH 4TH
11:00AM-4:00PM
at
10821 SE Main Street
Milwaukie, Oregon 97222

I am so very excited to start this amazing adventure! 
I have waited a long time, and for the perfect time, to call 4 walls my own. 
I know I have made one of greatest decisions of my life and
have had so much fun creating a place for
THE GLITTER!

If you have a moment this weekend and want to do a little shopping,
please come to Historic Downtown Milwaukie
and visit the Keehner Girls....
We will be the ones giggling with
glitter and chocolate probably on the tips of our noses!

If you can't make it this weekend,
then
Please see K.MARIE store hours for the month of March
I have them listed at the top of this page...
Wishing to see you soon!

Bubbles, giggles, and glitter
