I spent 6 hours at the Country Living Fair on Friday and came home with all kinds of lovely treasures!
Non of them broke the bank — most of them were between $1 and $6. I stayed away from more pricey things.
I’m taking my new CRV for a spin and driving to the Country Living Fair in Rhinebeck, NY, today! I can’t wait.
This fair is organized by one of my favorite magazines and going to be at the fairground Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
The fair offers great shopping, seminars and demonstrations, delicious food, and a chance to meet their editors.
Follow all the fun on my Instagram account if you can’t make it yourself!
I’ve been going to #CLfair the last two years, and here are just a few pictures from last year’s visit. You can see the whole post here. And here is my post from 2013.
I can’t tell you how much I love this fair. I feel so at home there! There are so many vintage goodies, and an abundance of beautiful vignettes to be inspired by.
And an abundance of vintage mason jars.
I spent the loveliest day at the Country Living Fair in Rhinebeck last Friday.
My friend and fellow Newburgh Vintage Emporium vendor Cindy (Little Cherry Vintage) drove us up there in her shiny new CRV. My CRV is almost 20 years old and I absolutely love it, but it will be time to get a new one soon, and it was nice to ride in one.
We saw several tag sales on the way and as addicted thrifters it was really hard to keep on driving, but we were focused on getting to the Country Living Fair.
The weather was just perfect. We met up with Lynn, another Emporium vendor who is also a blogger (Fern Avenue), and we had a quick bite to eat first. I ate a yummy baked sweet potato with goat cheese and scallions. It was so good, I wanted a second one.
Lynn and I are actually going to the Haven conference together! That’s less that three weeks away, wow. I’m still in denial that L’s summer break starts in two weeks.
My first stop was Cari Cucksey’s booth, which was in the same spot last year. [Read more…]
After writing a blog post for a client last Sunday, I couldn’t wait to get in the car and drive an hour to Rhinebeck, NY.
I had been looking forward to this for months: the Country Living Fair was in town! You already know how much I love the Country Living magazine.
Don and L weren’t interested in going, so it was just me and these stunning clouds — I couldn’t have picked a better day for a road trip.
If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, I apologize for all the pictures I took — gosh, was I in heaven.
And so inspired by all the vendors. And renewed in my belief that selling vintage and handmade items is in my future, in a larger scale than just my Etsy store and my candles in local stores.
I just feel so at home in that kind of environment, and I adore the country living decor style so much.
After I wrote about Landon’s turquoise room, our kitchen and our powder room, it’s time to show you our living room.
You’ve seen parts of it in several posts, but I’ve never written a post about the whole room.
