Eye Candy at Brimfield

My friend, Lee & I headed out to the Brimfield Antique Fair last week...happy day!  One booth was a "no photo" booth, but the displays were amazing.  The owner had printed twill tape ("family ties" and all sorts of quotes) displayed rolled on antique spools.  The whole booth was eye candy.  Bay City Cargo of Belfast Maine was there with vintage marquee letters.  Another neat booth was Ahinsa Lieftime Weavers from Auburndale, MA.  Their bags are heavy duty Dash & Albert-like with substantial leather handles.  So much to see....

This was a ginormous dollhouse.  I snapped pics of the roof and siding in case we ever want to get this detailed with the girls' dollhouse.

Loved this standing chalkboard.  It was too pricey for something I could build, so it's on my project list. 

Beautiful paint job on this old armoire.

This bread board stopped me in my tracks.  Gorgeous! 

When I showed this photos to Wayne he asked about the steer skulls.  I didn't even give them a second glance....I took these pictures for the shabby table.  I love the paint.  This would make a great work table!

Industrial carts were EVERYWHERE!  This was a cart converted to a sofa, but the plain carts that you see everywhere for coffee tables were all over Brimfield.

This vendor, Pascal's, came all the way from Bogart, Georgia!  His booth was to die for.  The dining set....the chandelier!

This NY based vendor had lots of great industrial salvaged things.  I love the aluminum letters, and the triple planter was all connected....would be so fun for a garden.

I love distressed leather, and this $$$ NY vendor had several amazing vintage sofas like this one. 

We packed Lee's Suburban...you can see my red screen door there.  I have plans for it!
Lee and I had a great time.  We ended up sunburned and with sore leg muscles after cruising through almost all of Brimfield in 4 hours.  We need a trailer next time, and a hotel room.   One day is just not enough at Brimfield!  I can't wait to go back!
