Brimfield antique show

We ventured to western Mass. to check out an antique show.  It's held in Brimfield every May, July, and September.  It. is. Huge!
 
 So many cool items - almost overwhelming, there was so much!







 We were looking for a kitchen island - or something that we could use as one.  We really liked this workbench - so neat!  But Chris thought it was too narrow (I still might find one to use as a TV stand...)

 Then we started looking at these industrial carts (were used in the old mill buildings)- just add a stainless steel, wood, or copper top!  We really liked this cart - but it was too wide and too long.
 Then we found this one - kind of unassuming.  But it was inexpensive, and already had the 'arms' for the top.  I just asked Chris if he could move the wheels to the outside, so we could see them better.  You can't even see them in this photo!



We ended up buying a pie safe (I've always wanted one!)

 We don't have a closet in our master bedroom, so this will work nicely!  I was originally wanting something a little taller, but once I found the pie safe - it was all I wanted! 
And we did buy the green cart too!  Chris had to powerwash it once we got it home.
 It looks nice in the kitchen - just have to refinish it; add a top; and move the wheels.  Chris is looking forward to the project - as long as any car projects don't come up first, of course!
