CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT At the Country Living Fair Woo hoo! This past Friday I got to mark a little something off my bucket list! I went to the Country Living Fair in Stone Mountain, Georgia…sooo much fun! Want to come along and check out my favorites?

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair`14 Of course, you must stop by the famous pumpkin tower! Don’t you love the assortment of sizes, shapes and colors?

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair12 Now off to shop! I loved this pretty soap! Wish you could smell it!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair6 …and these great vintage printing press letters…

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair7 …this collection of tin tart molds…

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair10 …and these old-fashioned tin Santa molds! I loved these because this Santa looks more like the French Père Noël but I wasn’t willing to wait in line to buy one. The Christmas booths were really popular!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair8 If you know me, you know I love sheep and goats so I lingered for a few minutes checking out this life-size sheep! Hey…my HOA would let me have this one! I’m not sure if the little friend that was crawling around on his head came with him!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair11 I loved this vintage rocking doggy but my little grands are really too big for it now. However, I did see it later being lovingly carried away by another grandmother…to a good home, I am sure!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair13I really wanted these…fabulous frenchy legs just waiting for a table top…but there’s no space for another table in my house!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Country Living Fair9 And there were other bits of frenchiness scattered around the fair as well!

GoodiesBut I don’t think you will be surprised when I show you what came home with me…a gorgeous pair of earrings made from my favorite grapey vintage silverplate flatware pattern from juNxtaposition…and a fabulous little Quimper dish…

034 …from Cari Cucksey  (in the purple scarf) of HGTV’s Cash and Cari! Woo hoo! One of my favorite TV stars! :-) What fun!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT At the Country Living Fair And I also came away with some farmhouse-y galvanized sap buckets, too! But best of all, I had a great time hanging out with my friends…(l to r) my BFF Nan, moi, and fellow blogger Barb from The Everyday Home! Only thing missing…I didn’t eat a funnel cake! Maybe next time!
