What a delight. Just back from several days at The Country Living Fair in Rhinebeck New York with my friend Michelle Delgatto Meese from Huston Texas. Her great store WonderFaux Home can be found here.
We spent some significant time at both the fair and several stops at local antique malls and thrift stores. The beautiful antiques ended up being an inspiration, not purchases, but the market and the thrift store had some lovely finds.
Some were for our home, Maine Country Home, and others could become Efex Flexible Molds.
We found a bit of everything, ceramic pots topped with gold were early finds.
Then this lovely ceramic box. The roses are stunning but were most likely made with a disappearing wax mold, so I am not sure I can copy them. But…. I will try.
The next box has the beautiful dainty carvings on top.
A set of antique plaster molds that Michelle found are stunning and a wonderfully carved pediment.
As the week at the fair went on, we met up with some of our favorite friends and made new ones. More later on our progress.
I like all of them, but the antique molds are my favorite!
Mine too!
Madame X for sure!
That was such a fun trip, once again my friends were with me for the fun.
The antique Mold above that Michelle found, have you made Molds of these to sell ( I really hope)?!
Hi Jann,
We are working on those very molds today. I will share the progress on the blog and Instagram next week. They are very special. One will be tricker than the others but I am working on a way to make them a pair of scrolls or maybe even a trim.
Wonderful news!! Thank you! I love them.
I love everything you add!!!
Thank you Joy. We’re working on some today and I will share the progress next week on the blog.
