A Fall Vintage Bazaar

Hello, dear friends.  Happy Sunday.  Last weekend, I dragged the Mister to a Vintage Bazaar in Salisbury, Massachusetts.  We attended the Christmas Bazaar at Pettingill Farm last November and if you missed it, you can find the post here







Clever idea.



I picked the Mister up at work because he had a Saturday meeting.  He doesn't usually sport a bow tie when attending a country fair.  



Love these light fixtures.







Note to self:  be careful where you sit around here.















I'm a total sucker for succulents.




Pettingill offers landscape design.  Isn't this a cute cottage?



Interesting take on family portraits.


I love this car!  I would never again have to wander around aimlessly in a huge parking lot trying to find my car.  There would be no more calls to the Mister reporting that I think our car was stolen.





Hmmm... I wonder if Sista would like a lamp for Christmas.








Cute pillows.



Love this bar!






I have my first needlepoint meeting of the season soon.  Do you think the ladies would believe that I finished two purses and a chair over the summer?


I bet I would be  at least 5'5" if I wore these boots.  One problem, though.  The Mister would have to carry me everywhere because I wouldn't be able to walk in them.



That's it for now.  
Time to hop into our new wheels and head home.


Until next time...





One year ago today, we picked up our little Chili in Connecticut and brought her to her new forever home.  She and her big bro have filled our home with nothing but craziness happiness.

  1. Katie, is it okay if I think you have the funniest and most readable blog out there? I read many blogs to keep myself from doing housework but yours is the one I look forward to the most. I also like all the pretty pictures!

  2. I bet the mister was the best dressed man there! I remember Charles Chips cans, do you? We always had a can of chips and a can of pretzels on the steps leading to the basement. Can't wait to see your needlepoint.

  3. You and I must be about the same height. ha! And I could not walk in those high heeled booties either. :-)
    Love the needlepoint chair and it would take me 20 years to finish it. I had a few needlepoint projects going...and I should have finished them before I needed bifocals.

  5. Love the fair...I too am a sucker for succulents. When I was about 8 and my mother was planting some new gardens where there used be be a barn in our backyard (long story), anyway she said she was going to buy some hens and chicks for the garden. I literally thought we were going to have chickens. I was disappointed, but have loved having my own hens and chicks because of her.

    I have an old pump organ sitting in my garage (in excellent shape) and I have been telling my son it would make a great BAR! NOW I have a picture to prove it. xo Diana
