As I shared earlier this week, I spent last Friday with friends at the Country Living Fair. I gathered tons of inspiration and a few gems I couldn’t live without. So did my gal pals.
Here is a sampling of our shopping spree:
It’s a dough bowl! It is huge and beautiful! Ever since I spotted one of these on Stories of A House, I have wanted one. My aunt from England has one and my brother-in-law spotted one at auction for $150. My baby was $85 and it is all mine.
Suzanne and Amanda each went home with one.
This is what it looks like for the time being:
Debra made one purchase and absolutely loves it. It is so hard to find art, so when you love it, you gotta nab it.
Christy was on a tight budget this year (that statement oozes sarcasm). She fell in love with many lovelies that are now in her home:
Soup spoons
So cool!
Great flash cards!
Gourds
Yummy apples.
Rooster pillow.
My dough bowl is by far my prized possession, but I did find a few other things to bring home.
This feed sack has a lining. It is almost stiff and can be used as a rug or on the wall. Marji also got one and plans to use it at her back door.
I loved the handmade bags. Suzanne, Amanda and I each found unique ones to don.
I have to end with a picture of Debra.
I also took away too many ideas, tons of pictures and lots of inspiration.
Have a great weekend!

Your friend Debra is a very fine looking specimen of woman with great style and amazing posture. Plus she has good taste in art. I bet she's intelligent and a pleasant companion. I mean, just from looking at the photo, that's what I would think.
Oh, that mountain of pumpkins is very impressive!
Looks like you had a fabulous time!
