What’s better than socializing with friends? Socializing with friends while shopping! In this case, at the Brimfield Antique and Collectibles Shows in Brimfield, Massachusetts…this week’s Friday field trip.
My day with friends was really more about talking and sharing, but there was plenty of inspiration thrown in! And, with over 75 acres to persue, we also got in some serious exercise.
Brimfield is the largest outdoor antique show in New England with over 5,000 dealers and runs three times a year (May, July and September) for a six day period. Especially for those that may not live in New England, I thought you might enjoy joining me by sharing some of my favorites this year at Brimfield. The beauty of Brimfield is that everyone has their own favorite items…here are some of mine…
I really loved this large, distressed white frame…I had so many imagined uses for it!
My grandmother had one of these telephone benches, but it sure didn’t look like this!
In LOVE with these pendants created from old ledger pages…
I always thought I would like to create a sea glass fireplace surround…this one is so beautiful and inspires me to think about other possibilities…
One of the vendors thought this was a cute arrangement of the letters offered for sale…how about this for a Wednesday in the office?
I hope you enjoyed today’s peek at Brimfield for this week’s Friday field trip. I will post some additional photos on my facebook page over the weekend.
Have a really wonderful weekend and remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie

It seems a cool place to visit… Nice pictures!
I love how you frame your photos! Great article too.
:)
I was just there too! What I really can’t believe is that I purchased a pendant from the lady in the booth that made the ledger page pendants! Talk about coincidence. And yes, you sure get a lot of exercise and wonderful fellowship with whoever you go with. I had a blast.

That is too funny! Which pendant did you purchase?
