Lets Visit and Antique and Craft Faire!

Helllo Ladies, hope you are enjoying your weekend!

Yesterday, hubby and I went to the Snohomish Antiques and Craft Faire.  I not only came home with some great treasures, which I'll share with you in a few days, but also got some wonderful and inspiring ideas!

 I really love these reclaimed wood stars with mason jars filled with pretty blooms!

At the same booth, I fell in love with this chalkboard sign, made from a section of picket fence.  What a fun idea!

 I was in love with these gorgeous vintage altered bottles.  Be still, my heart!!!

 There were several vendors that had the most amazing painted furniture.  I could have easily bought an entire truck load!  I really love this cute little green end table, and the tea cart, with drop leaf sides, was just charming!

 Glass votive candles with stamped linen "slipcovers".  Loved this idea!

 Ok, you do ever have "buyers remorse"?  Not for what you did buy, but for what you didn't?!  Well, I could just kick myself for not buying this neat organizer (above).  They took a canvas shoe organizer and added fun stamped and hand written images.  At only $10, what was I thinking passing it up???  It would have been perfect for organizing my craft supplies.  ***sigh***

 Love the pretty pink flowers in a fun and upcycled container.

At the same booth, there were lots of creatively repurposed containers filled with pretty blooms!  I love the vintage pink tin canisters!  Hubby bought me one of the wire baskets on the ladder as an early birthday gift.  It is lined with moss and filled with pansies and other blooms, and I just love it!!!

 And who could resist this darling vintage dolly all set to celebrate with a festive party hat?

After checking out all of the wonderful booths, we headed to the shops in town for some more retail therapy!

 I really love this butterfly wreath made from vintage book pages!

 The shop windows are always very cleaverly displayed, and full of eye candy!!!

 I love this "message in a bottle"!

 And of course this little tray decoupaged with vintage book pages.  Oooh, la, la!!

 Another fun idea was this cute little decoupaged "table".

 And I totally am in love with these gorgeous French themed baskets! 

 One shop even decked out their barrel planter with cheery blue and green paint, and fleur de lis stenciling.  Love!!!

 How about a pet dish fit for royalty?

 So many creative and gorgeous vignettes.  My head was spinning!  I really love this iron candelabra.  Isn't it amazing?

 I was ooohing and ahhing over this display.  Notice the vintage trophy on the right?  It is encrusted with glitter!  ***more sighs!***

                                                   I was loving this chippy blue table!

 And of course this beautiful blue secretary.  Love the color!!!

                                                        Lots of altered vintage books.

And I am in love with this gorgeous three tiered wire stand.  I just may have to go back and buy it!!!

That's it for now, I'll show you next time some of the treasures that I bought on our outing!  

Now, go out and have a great and creative day!!!
