We ended up having OVER 70 vendors from across the country who brought their own unique design flair down to Leiper's Fork with some truly amazing antiques, treasure and more that made for a real picker's paradise.
Beyond all of the one-of-a-kind pieces we got to peruse, everyone partook in fare from a number of tasty food trucks (the FGTBLT {fried green tomato BLT} was a hit!), gained a little know-how from demonstrations featuring some of the best design and DIY celebrities in the biz, and enjoyed talented musical performers -- all of which set the backdrop for a wondrous weekend to see after months of planning.
In addition to visiting with old friends (like Sheryl Crow and plenty of others), we made lots of new friends who came out to join us from all corners of the country and the globe, with both coasts well represented, and even the GOLD coast (Australia).
Fellow Franklinite, friend and blogger, Cindy Laverty, wrote about her experience at the fair that can be found here -- we always love hearing what y’all have to say after it’s all said and done!
"You can almost feel the energy as you approach and everyone is filled with anticipation about the treasures that await," she said in the post, which truly embodies (in words) exactly what I hope for the City Farmhouse Pop-up fairs to mean to people.
Now… onto the next! The Holiday Pop-up fair is mere weeks away and it’s gonna be a doozy. Check back with us tomorrow for all the details!
