We spent all of our time at the North Building on this trip and enjoyed seeing the various vendors and their wares. We even came close to buying a few things but held back. Here are some of the more captivating and inspiring images!

| Love this style chair - I've refurbished at least three sets myself - this fabric and color combination makes it so fresh and new! |

| I thought this was clever - a cane-back with "buttoned" upholstered insert on the front. I will probably borrow this technique! |

| Wow - love the mirrors! |
On the way back, we stopped at several estate sales and I did end up buying a lovely French country chair and ottoman in almost pristine condition. I plan to sell it "as is" and offer to reupholster. It is so comfortable, I wish I had the space for it - but I say that about WAY too many pieces of furniture!
