Vintage Market day has arrived just across the river from us in North Augusta, SC...My daughter, Taylor, and I have had our tickets for months...We were on the road early after taking my 3rd grader to school...We had tickets for the early admission...Now you know my primitive decorating isn't vintage decor, but I was determined to find some goodies amongst all the white...
The hippodome was pretty with sawdust and dirt floors...I think rodeos are held here... The morning temp was already warm, but bearable..
I had to take a pic of these gorgeous cement sheep...I would love to have come home with 1, 2, 3, or 4 of them easily....
Awww!! Gorgeous signs!
Standing in line, but it was fast moving....
And finally to my goodies that actually came home with me...When I left this morning I already had in my mind what I was looking for in particular...And that is exactly what I came home with...I was on a mission for galvanized items for my new deck...I was also keeping an eye out for a new antique watering can....I spotted the tobacco sticks in one of my first booths upon entering...Actually I bought 2 of them and they held them for me while I shopped more...And when I got there to pick them up the 3rd one was still there..So I grabbed it also...lol
And my last purchase I was on a mission for were some spoon herb markers for my herbs...So sweet! Made by a husband and wife team of "This Old Thing Designs" of Charleston, SC...(They have a website and are on fb)...And even made it more sweeter because of my love for Charleston...We visited often when our Taylor lived there in downtown Charleston a couple years back...
They even were sweet enough to make me a lavender and a mint as we waited...I will definitely be buying more as my pots get fuller and more are added...The variety of spoons are beautiful....So be sure to go check them out!
It was a fun morning spent with Taylor and she was gracious enough to help her momma by carrying all 8 of the galvanized buckets and I carried the watering can and 3 tobacco stick fences...lol...You should have seen us..lol
I will be sure to check in soon again...I have a lot of new home projects to share with you...
And you can follow me on fb...I have had a taylors*farmhouse*attic page on there for a while now...
Have a blessed weekend!
From The Farmhouse~~Until next time~

Nice haul! Looks like another fabulous show too far from me.
Great finds! So glad you took time to share with us die hard bloggers!
So glad you were able to get what you intended on getting with the galvanized items. Great finds I was looking for a tobacco rack for my bath and was not able to find out this past week. Oh well. Hopefully I will find one soon. Janice
I am looking forward to how you use your great finds! Please post some photos when you finish here as I don't have FB to follow along and I love what you create! Also, I am interested in your other projects that you mentioned in this post, and I look forward to seeing what they are. Thanks for sharing!!
