brimfield antique show
So last weekend smith and I made the drive out to the Brimfield antique show to see what all the fuss was about. In one word it was amazing.
After about an hour and a half of driving we stumbled upon the mother load of awesome antiquing. I was in such awe at the number of people, smith had to remind me to pay attention to the road.
We walked around until I was sufficiently sunburned (doesn't take much lol). According to the map I printed ahead of time, we didn't make it thought more than 10% of the show in our 3 hours of wandering.
At the end of the day we made it home with a William H Littlefield original and some very cool letterpress type. I'm going back for sure in July, September, next summer, ad infinitum. If you are in the area you should definitely check it out. But be sure to bring your water bottles - I have never seen such long lines for lemonade in my life!

revenge is a dish best served stuffed...
sometimes you have a problem, and most of the time the only reasonable solutions is to put a horse's head in someones bed. Bloody sheets aren't anyone's favorite thing - so consider this much cuter alternative that your enemies can cuddle without having to worry about the clean up.
or, you know, get one for yourself. I'm seriously considering it.
available here for $45.00
