Aahh what a spectacular day we had at the Brimfield show. We started out relatively early. The weather was initially cool but warmed up throughout the day. The fields were brimming with excitement as deals were made left and right. The crowds were plentiful and if you dug deep down there were bargains to be had.

The first booth we stopped at had a European flair. so we were immediately drawn into it. While talking to the dealer in the booth I discovered that she was from Germany but resides in Pennsylvania. Doris Dixon is her name. Doris was so friendly and knowledgeable. You can check her website out at www.dorisdixonantiques.com . It was such a pleasure to meet her. Here are few pictures from her booth.

We bought a few treasures from her and then went on down the road to discover a friends booth from Concord.

If you haven’t heard of Nesting On Main then you are seriously missing out on something wonderful and magical. Their store has an eclectic mix of new and old things with a french flair. It is by far one of my favorite antique shops. The girls are always so friendly and welcoming. Melissa does the Brimfield show every year with another gal Carrie from another shop in Concord. Here I shot a few pics of their amazing space at the show.

To my amazement right next store to Nestings booth another talented lady Sue Bradford set up a lovely booth with a similar style to Nestings. I had my eye on a sweet little orange tin with a bee on it, and just had to buy it because I couldn’t get it out of my head all day. I went back at the end of the day and she still had it tucked away, so I managed to get it for a better price. It was my favorite purchase of the day. Here are some pics of her cool booth as well as some random shots throughout the day. Enjoy!!
