When I die,

I hope to be greeted at the pearly gates of this place. Alex MacArthur in East Sussex. I know East Sussex does not sound like a great place to spend the afterlife but hey... this store looks like somewhere I could easily spend a lot of time, and money if I had any pounds to spare. Top of my lust list are the black drawer units, tan leather day bed, Jelde lamps and several pairs of antlers.

Big Daddy's

One of my favorite tents at Brimfield was that of Big Daddy's Antiques. It was really dark the day I took these pics so I've included some borrowed from the lovely blog Velvet and Linen.
The sweet guys from Big Daddy's really make an enormous effort to put their look together. The lights they conrapt from metal funnels and all sorts of other industrial finds are amazing. Below are images from their San Francisco warehouse. A must visit by the looks of things.

L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue: Part 2

These were some pics of the weekend vendors that set up stall all along the river. I could have bought ten of these studded balls, that's the thing with me, never just one, whats the point. Thankfully the 75 euro per ball price tag prevented me from buying any. Other than those balls all the other things I wanted where way too big to fit into my suitcase. Let me say this. My husband was relieved. Granted my husband did try to figure out how he could get the giant tuna head home...for his man cave?

My happy place

 Here are a few shots of a cute little vintage store in Uzes, the town next door to where we are staying while on holiday.

On Sunday we did a day trip to Isle-sur-la-sorgue a town famous for it's antiques, lots of pics to come. Hideously expensive though, saw a five arm Jeilde lamp for.... gulp.... 1230 euros?
