Southern Comforts Fall Festival

It's a beautiful fall weekend here in North Carolina

temps are in the 70's with an awesome blue sky!

I hope to get out and enjoy it this afternoon but I've got

what we call " the creepin crud " of a cold....so I'm in front

of the computer checking out what all of you have been up to...
maybe a walk later... right now I want to tell you about my Saturday....

Sandra and I spent yesterday at the 1st Annual

Southern Comforts Antique & Fall Festival

in Salisbury, NC

A perfect day for it too!

the collage above is just a portion of the venders that

were set up inside and outside of the Rowan County Fairgrounds

antiques, junk, primitives

vintage jewelry, handcrafted items

fresh produce, flowers

and good food!

Southern Comforts is an fabulous antique shop

located in Concord, NC

we met a lot of great people who share a

love for things from the past...

two of our favorite junkin friends were there

first...Tammy from ReFunked Junk

she had a wonderful eye catching display set up outside

great cabinets & farm tables

we love her re-funked/re-purposed/altered jewelry

she was very busy the whole time we were in her space

she had a fab collection of jewels for Halloween!!

loved these....

I wish I had a link for you to go and see more of her stuff

BUT...she doesn't have a blog yet...

she's a teacher and very busy...

but I'm working on her to get one started

 

This guy had the best looking produce!

all grown locally !! it looked like the produce stand in June not October!!

I was impressed and came home with two great "big purple" tomatoes

can't wait to have that sandwich later...yummers!

fall flowers and pumpkins were set up

outside too...they had already sold a ton of stuff when

I snapped this pic...

The other friend set up there was

rock star junker- Beth - from

 Olde Tyme Marketplace

her space was inside & let's just say

AWESOME!!! She totally rocks the vintage displays!!

I just loved all the screen doors lining the back wall

chippy cabinets,wooden stools and boxes

with straw tucked in every little nook & crannie

bittersweet and lucious smelling candles

I wanted to take one of everything home with me...

I'm saving up for her

Christmas Tyme @ The Markeplace

Dec 3 - 5

back at her shop in Marsvhille

if you are local you should plan to attend!!

Here's the loot we did come home with...

a few more jewels for my altered jewelry I'm

making for the show

and all this ...

vintage suitcase ,seltzer bottle & a great old basket

old frames for chalkboards and cork boards

feedsacks and ticking fabric for totes and table runners

 vintage sheet music for wreaths and ornaments

playing cards and game pieces for altered jewelry

cookie cutters, a vintage leather coin purse

clock faces & a cool vintage document box

alot of "smalls"...as we junkers call it

It was a good day!!!
