Brimfield WOW!!
After a long day shopping at the Brimfield show, needless to say I am a bit tired……But was it worth it you ask? Absolutely!!
The vendor diplays of antiques were exceptional and a feast for the eyes!! Along the weather being a warm 70 degrees, the air was filled with excitement as there were bargains to be found and deals to be made. I will warn you I have about thirty pictures to share with you all, but I know you will be drooling over every ounce of antiquity just as I was!!
To start off the first booth I want to share is from two talented people for which I have had the pleasure to meet at the Holliston show. James Buchanon and friend Cathy Harrison had an wide assortment of French antiques to die for!! He can be reached at 617-834-6761, and Cathy can be reached at 978-777-9776. Let the drooling commence!!
The next set of beautiful pictures is from a dealer that some of you may know of by The other Theresa from Time Worn Interiors at www.cottagegardens-theresa-smith.blogspot.com. I met Theresa through the blogging world and got to meet her today in person. She was so sweet as well as being amazingly talented. Here is her fabulous display!!
These next two dealers are actually friends of mine from Concord MA. Melissa has a great shop called www.nestingonmain.com and Cary is just down the road at Thoreauly Antiques. They always have an amazing display of botanical and garden antiques as well as anything that is stunningly beautiful. It’s always by far my favorite booth, and they are a long time source of inspiration for me as a dealer!! I want to thank them as well for letting my pregnant butt sit for a bit in their lounge chairs!!
I will leave you with these last photos of some other random shots of Brimfield beauty…..Who knows maybe Amy and I will have some fab pics of our own set up of the fall show!! Enjoy and happy hunting!!
Does anyone happen to know what kind of plant this white ferny thing is? I asked the dealer but he wasn’t sure. I would love to put some in the shop….They are just beautiful!!

I do believe I’ve seen those white grasses growing where my sister lives in Ocean Shores, Washington. She lives almost on the beach. They are native there. So maybe if you’d look close to the beach.

I get all my dried plants, etc…through one of my wholesale vendors. (Sullivans) They have GREAT and unusual stuff. Just make sure you have a valid Tax ID and they do have minimum order requirements.

Which field were you in? I always get overwhelmed, and I’d love to have some focus for which fields to go into.
Thanks!
