Okay, so if you read my post from about a month ago, you’ll know that my last trip to the Randolph Street Market over Memorial Day Weekend lasted only about 20 minutes before we were hit with a monsoon of epic proportions.
So, my boys promised me we could try again for the next one which happened to be this last weekend, and a beautiful, sunny, 70 degree day.
Lots of interesting things ….
Upon first entering was a huge table filled with all of these wonderful grain sacks:
So perfect for making pillows or table runners.
I loved this old steamer trunk. I wonder who D.R.G.M. is, and what grand ocean liners it traveled in its day.
Think of all the clothes and shoes you could carry in that thing …. even a 7 year old boy!
A demijohn! (love)
My husband and I were eyeing up a pair of these industrial shelves (on wheels) for our office.
Kyle and Braden thought these old movie theater seats were way cool.
I’ve always liked the idea of lining a mudroom with lockers … wouldn’t these be great painted a bright color?
A wonderful old suitcase I’m now wishing I bought.
Mirrors are always fun.
Love this weathered pedestal table … AND the turquoise dresser behind it!
A Louis XVI style chair in a bird print! (Swoon.)
More mirrors … with fantastic old tin frames.
I would love to build a room around these old factory mirrors.
And still … more mirrors. These antique cog wheel mirrors would be perfect in a swanky bachelor pad.
And I was so excited when the lovely Gosia of Architectural Anarchy recognized me as I approached he booth and said hello. I didn’t even know she would be there. She had some lovely things as well, although I realized after we got home that I was so busy talking to her that I forgot to take very many pictures of her booth. I am still overdue in getting to their showroom down in Pilsen.
I did love this antique clock face. It is not a working clock, but would still make quite a statement on the right wall.
Also loved this chalkboard globe.
And what, if anything, did we purchase?
I’ll share with you later in the week!
Amy, I was inspired by your blog a month ago and dragged my husband here yesterday. HE was the one who spotted those industrial shelves and put an offer in, but it was too low for her. There were also a few cool industrial desk/console tables with wood tops and metal legs that we were eying for our living room! SO fun. We went looking for a round table and 2-4 chairs for our screened in porch, but the one we found was too big. Heading to Kane Country this weekend!! -Debbie
