Last weekend all four of us went to a vintage fair called Fairfield Market, that a friend from high school started last year. I went last June and found the cutest distressed bookshelf, and an old painted trunk that I use for a coffee table. I was so excited to go again this year and there were even more vendors and so many things I loved! I am a total lover of Hobby Lobby and think they have so many great things for your house, but I think there is something more enjoyable about finding one of a kind things at places like this. More and more I enjoy going to markets, antique stores and places like that to find things to decorate my home.
I need one of these bead garlands!
I regret not buying this sign and it was only $12!
The cutest little booths and setups.
There were a ton of vendors from the Illinois/Wisconsin area, selling vintage finds, crafts, refurbished furniture, candles, jewelry and all kinds of things I wanted to buy! Our best family friend growing up played the guitar, along with another friend and it made for such a fun atmosphere. They had a truck from the little chocolate factory near by so you could buy some sweets too! I wanted to buy many, many things but left with three things. This cute little egg basket that I put our chicken eggs from, this little metal planter filled with rosemary (hopefully I can keep it alive!) and a few old spindles that I haven't decided what to with yet. Each of those were under $10 and I love them.
Follow them on facebook (fairfeldmkt) and instagram (@fairfieldmkt ) for more information and if you are at all in the area plan on coming to their next event on October 1st. I can't wait!
This place sounds so neat! I agree, I love arts and crafts stores but there's something special and charming about buying from a little place like that! I want the home sweet farmhouse sign!
