Were you wondering what I bought at the Elephant’s Trunk last Sunday? (As requested) Here are some of the things that I brought home from my last two trips to the flea market ❤

When I saw this chair it was love at first site! I adore the shape of the arms and the center back spindle. I am also quite smitten with the colonial revival era painting that was added to this early 19th century chair.

Two more of my finds from 8/30. An amazing early transferware bowl, which just happens to match one of my dinner plates, and a small mid-19th century wool embroidered sampler.

This tiny sampler is later than most of the samplers in my collection AND it needs to be reframed, but it is stitched with some of my favorite colors and it was only $15 !!!

One of this Sunday’s chairs. This one is a reproduction Windsor chair from Martin’s Chairs in PA. I already owned one of his comb back Windsors, so this is a nice companion piece and a good sturdy chair for visitors who get nervous about sitting in my tiny antique chairs 🙂

These count as the afore mentioned “tiny antique chairs” . This pair was another of my Sunday finds.

Late 19th century folk art scenery panel. Another love at first sight item ❤ There is just something about the shape, the colors (a great early green and lots of lavender sky) and the soft mural like quality that I could not pass by.

Two weeks worth of imperfect petticoats hang in my studio waiting to be scaled down into doll size undergarments.

Antique stockings are something I am always searching for. A tiny Izannah Walker doll that I am restoring is shown in the background.
I loved seeing all your great finds and glimpses of your lovely home too!

My pleasure 🙂
Thank you! It took me few few days to run around and photograph everything 🙂 Just don’t look too closely, there are also glimpses of baby toys and equipment in the backgrounds and of course kittens- LOL

…I am smitten with your early chair with the colonial revival era painting, your antique “tiny” chairs and of course, the late 19th century folk art scenery panel. [swoon] And last but not least, who wouldn’t be smitten with your kittens? Too cute! :o)
