Summer Portland Antiques Expo

Not much time to blog, today, as I am headed to the last day at Expo... But I wanted to leave you with some pictures of my space! Despite the heat we are having too much fun, and I feel so lucky to be neighbors with very sweet friends!! As always, I love seeing old customers come back and getting to meet new wonderful people!! The only sad thing about this weekend is that I cannot be in Seattle with my husband and children (who are there for a soccer tournament), but I have to say that I have felt a guilty pleasure coming home to a quiet house!!! I will be back with more Expo pictures and a show and tell of some of my found treasures!!

    Everything looks yummy, that sweet vintage green dresser the wrought iron bed. I love your granny carts to , I also have some 4 sale. I hope the kids win their soccer tournament.

    Enjoy your day!

    Oh Isabel!!! Your space looks divine!!! I so wish I were there....You are such an angel to send me the beautiful paint swatches!!! Thank you sweet girl ~ when I get the paint and receive the formula, I want to post about it and I'll be sure to credit the creator of this beautiful shade. I loved the color that you actually used for the table! Wishing you a wonderful week, xxoo, Dawn

    Your spaces are always just the sweetest. I love your use of pastels, so homey and cottagy. Thanks for sharing the pictures. I would love to travel up to your area. I know you have some fabulous shows. Enjoy your quiet time at home.

    Great space, you have many fun things! Hope it was a good sale for you. Curious about your spool holder cabinet, what is your price on that? or did you sell it?

    I sooo want to be there!!!! There is nothing like that here. Everyone is always sharing these wonderful antiques fairs and it's sooo frustrating!. (Please keep sharing!) Do you know if there are any events going on up there during the 2nd week of August? I will be heading up to Portland then. Thanks!!!

    Isabel, I think this is my first time posting on your blog, but I have had it on my favorites list for a long, long time :) I think your blog is just gorgeous. On this post you show a spool cabinet, I was wondering if you still have it available? It would fit right in my lil studio :) Please stop by and visit me anytime on my new blog, it was created for me by the wonderful Dawn of The Feathered Nest or as I call her Lovey cause she truly is a love. http://my-bella-rosa.blogspot.com/ Hope the link works for you. There is a post there about my lil bebe studio :)Rose

    I happened to be in Portland for a wedding this weekend, but didn't get a chance to swing by. I was so bummed that I missed it!

    Hello Isabel

    I am always amazed at your photos showing various expos. The quality and quantity of items on sale is fantastic. In a way it's just as well I don't live there, I would spend far too much.....

    Don't feel guilty...after all, you are "working"! Everything is just beautiful. I still love your clock pillows. I think those are the most imaginative thing I've seen in a long time.
