As with most of the country Atlanta has been subjected to torturous hot weather. The only good thing is that it's not that humid....which saves my hair from looking like a full grown chia pet.
Still...I won't be going for an afternoon run any time soon. I read somewhere that the National Weather Service issued a "fat guy in a tank top warning"....hee haw.
All that being said I decided to go to a little indoor/outdoor flea market yesterday. AND....when I say indoor....not air conditioned.
Sometimes I question my judgement.
But the lure of something called "The Vintage Revival" was too much for me. So off I went.
I think maybe the organizers might want to re think the middle of summer and possibly do this in the early fall....just saying.
Apparently this venue is called The Goat Farm. I didn't see any goats.I am loving old pictures....
See this wall which was taken at a Show House on Thursday [where I was NOT supposed to be taking pictures at all]
Of course I saw a turquoise typewriter......
I love old cans like this...
You can put a piece of mirror on top and use for a side table like I did.I really wanted this book...it was rare and old. Another use for chalk paint.
If you need anything from her shop.....here is the info.
I need this....
And these....tons of cool vintage clothes....
This is the name of their shop.....little bird blueThis caught my eye...
I love when peeps get all creative with fabric!
Info....
Rather nice vintage acrylic chair....4 of them. My friend Mary Bairstow [Scott's Antique market] was there with some good stuff.
Could be a nice headboard...
Old lighting.
Remember Jimmy Stanton's room from the Show House???
Another Scott's vendor Parker Kennedy was there. I love his West Palm Beach style.
Nice painted bamboo.
Hmmm.....a gold painted shell.....
I love the rope detail on the arms of this chair.
Holy old toys......I am 100% sure that I had this set in the 1800's when I was a kid....
Old bike picture...I likey.
I was there for maybe an hour and then I started feeling like I needed an oxygen tank. I can not even imagine what the vendors felt like after being there all day. If you are local.....it is still going on today. On Foster Street in the West End.
I am going to leave you with this....Shout out if you've done this :)
Since I am staying inside today...guess I will clean my house.That is usually last on my list for fun weekend activities.
