Feathers

[All Photos - The Grower's Daughter]

This past weekend, I took a trip out to one of the largest antique shows in Canada. It's held about an hour from our place so it was barely a trip at all, but it felt kind of like a road trip: The anticipation of what you'll bring home, the getting up while it's dark, the early morning, peaceful drive, and the good coffee and donuts. Road trip.

Though there are some highlights from the show coming later, I wanted to share one specific booth with you. It was one of my two favourites of the entire show, and, you'll soon see why.

It's actually kind of funny because the brilliant woman behind the booth happens to be someone who I see, quite regularly, at a local auction. In fact, I can often expect some competitive bidding from her on certain items I love. I figured she was just a typical dealer with good taste... then I saw her booth.

It's filled with the most gorgeous mix of vintage linens, rustic garden ware, French antiques and just a hint of industrial chic. Gorgeous.

Take a peak inside this lovely booth belonging to Joanne Price of Feathers.



















I thought it was a good find worth sharing.

  2. A beautiful booth beautifully photographed! That chippy blue box in the third to last picture is amazing! I've been looking for something like that for ages ... too bad she doesn't have an etsy : ) Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see more from the trip!

  5. First thing that caught my eye: that turquoise ladder. That would have come home with me! I would have been tempted to buy almost everything in her booth (but lack of $ would have stopped that enterprise pretty quickly!) Thank you for sharing this amazing find.

    Best,
