A Trip to Waterford Antique Market (yes! another one!)

This morning my youngest and I went into Waterford Antique Market (again!)
We were greeted with a "Hello Melanie and T".
Such friendly staff there at the Market!
I was hoping to pick up a couple grain sacks for some projects.
I happened to find this cute little antique petticoat.
So I had the idea of using it as a sun-dress for my daughter and getting some cute photos of her wearing it. http://waterfordantiquemarket.com/                     https://www.facebook.com/waterfordantiquemarket

 Such pretty details!

The petticoat is now hanging on the far right.
Here are the 2 grain sacks I picked up today.
And boy was I lucky!!
There were some FREEBIES at the door!
So in the trunk they went! More projects!
If you can go check out the market-you never know what you may find! https://www.facebook.com/waterfordantiquemarket?fref=ts

  8. my mom and i were cruising around in haldimand county and looking for another store on our phones we came across your blog and in turn the waterford antique market. i almost had a stroke the place was so amazing and such a well kept secret. at least it will be a little on my end as it was an amazing picking ground. your space was divine and i loved everything about it. it is impossible to find ironstone once you get into the niagara region. we have had no luck with our local estate sales, auctions etc and this place was a treasure trove. i will be back many times and just wanted to thank you for this post and making my day. you can visit me at oliverandrust.com if you are interested and congratulations on your impending magazine feature. followed you via bloglovin'. going to hunt through the rest of your blog now. :)

    1. Hello! I DO follow you! I myself do not have a booth at the Waterford market-you're probably talking about the 1871 Farmhouse (The Primitive Heart)booth. Christine has her own shop in St. George-about 8 minutes past Brantford! If you ever decide to go-you may as well drive about 10 minutes further-to Southworks Antiques YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!! I will try to add the links to both. And YES! I am pretty excited about the magazine! We are working HARD here at home to get ready! :D http://www.southworksantiques.com/ http://1871farmhouse.blogspot.ca/
