Well… I’m just about done spotlighting our incredible vendors, thanking our amazing sponsors, and trying to fill these final workshop spaces before the Harbor in Bloom Spring Faire blossoms open on Saturday. 🌸 Grab a spot! Please! I wish I could! 😉

The fancy fringe banners are flutter-ready. The floral garlands are blooming. The signage is just about finished. Our 100 goodie bags are nearly packed with love and little surprises. Our Nature Crowns, Seed Pollinator Bombs, and Flower Pounding Tea Towel activities are all boxed up and ready for creative hearts and joyful mess-making. ✨

Now it’s on to the final stretch: maps, last-minute communications, errand-running around town, and sprinkling little bits of Harbor in Bloom magic around town.

This event has been growing quietly behind the scenes for the past 3.5 months, and I truly could not have done it without the support, encouragement, kindness, ideas, shares, sponsors, volunteers, vendors, and community love poured into it along the way. Thank you for cheering me on while I figured this all out one bloom at a time, especially my hubby. 🌷 The Harbor in Bloom Spring Faire is almost here and I cannot wait to welcome you all.
