SCOTT'S ANTIQUE MARKET

It's been quite a while since I did a Scott's post!  

Well....guess what....get a cup of coffee [or a glass of wine depending...] and let's hang out for a minute...

For those of you....is it news to anyone.....that aren't familiar with Scott's it's a monthly flea market here in Atlanta.  2 huge buildings fill with stuff.

I used to go all the time but I had to wean myself because it was out of hand.  Yeah....meaning I don't need anymore stuff in my basement right:)

Let's get going because it's Friday and we need to start celebrating about that!

I love and old piece like this...would be perfect in a modern kitchen.

I don't know what these were but the guy was on the phone forever and I got tired of waiting.  Actually that saved me from  probably buying!

Old concrete planters are always a good thing!

 Brass....vintage and some modern art.  Yes please.

This little paper cuter below was darling.....seriously it was about 8" x 8".....

And we don't need any lessons on how classic blue china is right?

I know these juju hats were all the rage a while back but I can still dig them in the right space.

This whole situation.....

Y'all know I have one of these over my mantel.

There are always ton's of porcelain vendors....

These adorable llamas !

I will not be tricked into buying these cute lavender topiaries because I would probably kill them in the car on the way home!

Always TONS of rug vendors.....

And great styling.....

These colors in this blanket!

Black and white art in gold vintage frames is hot!

I have these chairs that I bought on Craigslist about 7 years ago but sprayed mine white.

This original art....1100.00  A steal.  It was huge.

I these chairs were like a 1000.00 for 6!  That is definitely a steal!

These colors.....

If you know me....then you know I am a fan or anything textural....

A special brass bowl huh!

And people....this chest with a marble top was only 1500.00  I mean.....

Another amazing rug....

Always so much painted furniture....I love the shape of this dresser.

Color...color......

Wooden bowls....not old but that's OK with me....still love em.

These raw candlesticks.....

Texture....

So this little number below with a pretty fern in it....right?

I'm only showing you this to SHOW you that you can literally find anything there and right across from this....

Is something like this!

Pretty  fabric and vintage quilts!

Well that's it....I'm actually going back today with a client to get some good stuff for her house.  That will be fun because it still feels like you are shopping..... but only for someone else.

Let's kick this weekends a**

WELCOME TO SUNDAY

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.

Wanna see what I saw???

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 blue

This 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.
