Scott's Antique Market is a huge antiques show that takes place in Atlanta the second weekend of every month. Nothing gets me salivating like the thought of a long day perusing all of the fabulous merchandise.
Beautiful, antique books artfully arranged made me want to whip out my checkbook.
Lovely mirrors in an array of shapes and sizes.
Each booth is a visual feast.
A gorgeous antique chest with gilt altersticks and mirror.
Tables and tables of fabulous prints ready to be framed.
Faded and worn antique Oushak rugs. I adore the muted colors and soft pattern. This is exactly what I want for my living room.
Such a pretty grouping!
Beautiful lamps in an array of shapes and sizes. I have seen this company's lamps and mirrors down at the Mart and the finishes are sublime. They are also quite reasonably priced.
I am pondering turning these shutters or some that are similar into a cover for the television in our family room. I want to hinge them to the wall so that they will swing open to show the tv, which will be recessed into the wall. Or attach them via a track system. I am still working this out. These are a bit rustic for my taste, although I really like the peeling painted finish. I would prefer solid doors so I do not have to put fabric behind. A tad dressier, paneled look with a French feel and beautiful old patina would be perfect.
I guess I will have to hit Scott's next month and see what else I can find!
