Well, it has been a month since the last antique fair. I was happy that my schedule allowed me to attend this one, as there is only one more for this year (sigh). How can it possibly be that the summer is gone?
Well, I guess that means I just have to cozy up in my chair, light the fire, read a good book and work on some new projects! But, before that snow flies, take a little trip with me to the Washington Antiques Fair.....
Doesn't the above chair have such wonderful form? Can't you just see it reupholstered in your favorite yummy fabric? Wouldn't it be wonderful to go to one antique sale and have enough money to buy what you wanted and THEN........ have enough money to fix what needs fixed! I think I have purchased lots of things that need fixin' in my life, but not enough have gotten out the other end, refurbished! Projects for another day!
Isn't this picture a beauty! This particular table had LOTS of pictures. Just gorgeous. This one, in particular, reminds me of two sisters, playing happily. Good times, indeed!
These doors caught my eye. Looks like someone used some creative license on them. I think I like the one on the right better than the one on the left. But great colors, don't you think?
Now who can't use a fabric screen? I have a weakness for these. I own only one, but, boy, could I own more! There's that money thing again... Hmmmmmm.......

And, another screen. Cute dishes. Great table for the porch or a kitchen.
Sweet arrangements.
Love that white drop front desk in the background. I have just the place for it! (No, it didn't go home with me (sigh))!
Lots of tables with small items. Lots of silver at this booth. So pretty!
A few of my treasures. These little babies were a steal! Aren't they adorable?

These light switch covers are metal facings mounted on wood. Wouldn't they be so cute incorporated into a collage? Can't you just see some sweet little faces peeking out through the holes?
And this little china hat will be making its way to my Etsy. Perfect condition. It's just adorable!
Well that's it for today's trip to the antique fair. Hopefully I'll have one more trip to show you pictures and hopefully some purchases. I did get some great shell buttons at this sale, as well. Happy Hunting!

Hi Kitty, my parcel arrived! Thank you! Love the book and adore all your extra touches! Thank you so very much! Rachaelxo
ReplyDeleteI love those screens too. I have one and just like you I feel I could use more. I bought mine in Belgium, for about 15 usd and I had to foof it up, but I'm so much enjoying it. Thanks for the market tour! I loved it, sorry that the season is over (here too!). Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking me to the flea market. We have NOTHING like that where I live....So lovely.
ReplyDeletesuch beautiful things! I wish there would be antique fairs where I live! I guess Arizona is just to hot for it... I love your little babies, and who could resist shell buttons?!

Oh my, so many pretties! I think my husband is really really glad we don't have a wonderful fair like that near us or we'd probably be homeless due to my lack of will power in vintage spending. I love love love that little blue table with the pink chairs and sweet china! And boy can I ever relate to a long list of unfinished projects, I am the master procrastinator. :) Thanks for sharing your lovely photos!
