My friend Margot and I had such a good time at the antique fair! We left my home very early in the morning- just after 6 a.m. We wanted to get to the fair grounds to find a good place to park. What we did find is that neither one of us is good at navigating- we needed a GPS! But we did get there and spent the rest of the day looking at tons of stuff!
A table filled with silver trophies from 1911-1954. I really wanted to buy all of them but had to be content with just one!
Assorted metal letters covered another table.
The beautiful shade of blue caught my eye- all from a dismantled porch: railings, posts and decorative mouldings.
Check this out! A House and Garden Interior Decorator Set! Margot and I were both fascinated with this but after examining it more closely we found it didn’t have all the pieces.
And what did Margot and I get? Margot bought a victorian lace bag and three old bottles. I bought two vintage design magazines and a 1922 silver trophy.

Sounds like a fantastic time! Love the trophies, and all that salvaged wood.
I loved hearing all about your visit to the Antique fair with Margot! Sounds like it was so much fun! Wow, I don’t know how you held yourself back on those trophies!

Anna- I checked ebay for prices on trophies when I got home…they were higher there than at the show. I could kick myself for not buying at least one more! Margot and I are now thinking…Brimfield! (that’s the largest antique fair on the east coast!) :)
Wow—looks like a great fair! And I love what you did with the trophy once you got home. The combo of tarnished silver against the bright flowers is so striking! Can I come next time?
:)
I love the trophies too!!
They look so wonderful en masse, don’t know how you held back either!
