Field Trip Report - Treasure Hunter
Let me begin with the fact that I have an awful cold and am really foggy, so the photos from my field trip are a little off. My camera on my phone is so much better than my old one though - so at least we have that. I love a good field trip and decided not to let being sick stop me.
So, of course I went to Scott's at the Atlanta Expo - it's the second weekend of the month after all. I hit all of my favorite dealers and strolled the entire South building. Skipped the North building since I felt crummy. One of my favorite things about being a designer is the treasure hunt part. Roaming around looking for the "perfect thing for that one spot" is heaven to me.
Here are the treasures I spotted today - with prices listed (if I can remember them).Those lovely stools above are $850 for the pair and are at the first booth you see when you walk in the far left door of the South building.
Pillows are $75 each - great price! Love the bench, great at the foot of a bed, but no one was there to tell me the price.
Double caned bergere - $275
Italian pottery from Wild Olive Company
Can you tell I was tired here? I cut off the top of the chairs!
These are great chairs and are $500 for the pair, at the Antiques and Decorative Things booth.
The best news of the day is that I scored a great buy, which I am working on rehabilitating and will blog about that when it is finished.
Will post a few more pictures later, going to rest now.
Love those stools and black bamboo chairs. Couldn't help but think the dealer should have left his/her cell phone # if they had to step away.
