Well, I had a simple plan of taking a few naps last week. Those plans were foiled by the stomach bug hitting 1, 2, 3 children. Then me. Then DH. A preschool picnic, ballet recital, music concert, piano and soccer. I’m still tired. But, I’ve missed you all! Thank you, thank you to all those that came out to say hello! What a treat to meet you and chat live 🙂
I want to recap how Luckett’s went. Friday was set up day for Blue Egg Brown Nest. DH drove the truck (even though I really wanted to) and I followed.
I was super excited and even got to listen to NPR on my way out in my very calm, quiet car. A real treat.
If you’ve never been out to Luckett’s, this is the little house that you will find on the corner.
They ushered the vendors through the stable gates for set up.
Yes! It does look like a Budget rental space. We walked over to the Field of Gold to find my name.
I cannot tell you how excited to was to be neighbors with my Vintage Marketplace friends, a few tents down from the amazing Ekster Antiques and across the way from one of my sponsors, Glamor Bits!
It was a perfect set up day. Sunny. Of course it’s also a race to get your truck unpacked so you can make room for the other trucks that need to come in and set up. It’s a bit nuts. We only had a few hours before school let out and we had to get back home. Oh, and the weather forcast was no rain….shame on us for trusting Doug Kamerer.
I wish I could have told myself that, yes, those are cloud moving in so you better cover your stuff! It rained that very night into the next morning. But, after a mild panic attack, everything dried out and the show began!
PS – I brought alot of new pieces to the show. Some sold and some did not. If you see something of interest, check out my SHOP sections or email me. cbensten@blueeggbrownnest.com
Hi Christen,
Thank you for the great pictures, I felt like I was there! Sorry to here that you did not get much of a nap! Flu going around here, too:(
Glad to have you back!
Pam
Hi Christen,
Can you tell me the color of the table and chairs on the 16th picture down on this post? Btw…I live near you, and we met a few years back. I discovered Blue Egg Brown Best in the Arlington Magazine. I love your work!
Thanks!
Kristi
Hi Kristi!
Is it the beige table? If so, that is Country Grey. Thanks for the sweet note!
Christen
Yes, that’s the table! I thought it was country grey. Thanks!
