country living fair antiques

I recently took a visit to Austin, Texas for the Country Living Fair with my Mother-in-Law, Leslie. We had the best time. We spent two whole days rummaging through every nook and cranny in these giant barns trying to find the best in vintage. I found some of the most amazing things. I was most inspired by the vintage pull toys. I’m working on a fabric collection based off of those right now. I love all the inspiration that vintage provides. My husband loved the lion illustration on one of the playing cards I brought home.

 

Here are some of the things I brought home. My favorite being this airplant from India. It may not be vintage but it’s pretty sweet!

 

 

Oh and check out these thumb-tacks! They look like vintage typewriter keys. LOVE!!!

 

Have you found any great vintage lately? I’d love to hear about it!
