A Walk Through Brimfield

Hey! How was everyone's weekend?

So, fortunately, I did make it to the Brimfield Antique Show on Friday! The weather forecast was not great...when I woke up it was cloudy and cold and sprinkly. But I decided to go anyways, and am so glad I did...by lunchtime the skies were clear and it was so hot that I started shedding layers and wished I had worn capri pants instead of jeans:) I had a great time meandering around, checking out about half of the booths (I think you really need two days to see the show), eating fair food and buying some stuff (that'll be another post).

Here's some pics I shot while walking around, although half the time I was having too much fun and would forget to take photos! They have everything there:

{tons of architectural salvage}

{the above booth had tons of neat stuff....old door knobs, hinges, doorbell parts, antique keys, lamp shades, spools, manequin hands...}

{Iron Pointy Things...$3}

{I really liked these, they would make good found object additions to a mantel display or a bookcase, etc...they must have come from an old wrought iron gate, but they were more than $3.00}



{I liked these old house numbers..they reminded me of Peanut Petunia and all the cool old signs, numbers, etc she has in her gallery walls}

{sports paraphernalia}

{old musical instruments}


{HUGE found wine bottles}

{lots of fabric..especially burlap and grain sacks and all that stuff}

{tons of beads and ribbon and jewelry}

{this booth looked like the inside of Holly from Life in the Fun Lane's garage!!!}

{I would love to get my hands on an old apothecary chest or a cool library card catalog thing like this}


{chandeliers and lanterns and all kinds of lighting}

I'll do a post soon about what I came home with. I did actually buy something from one of the above places/in one of the above pics...can anyone guess what it is?
