Antique Gathering: Magnolia Ridge


The Magnolia Ridge Antique & Art Gathering took place Saturday in Ridge Spring, South Carolina. This pale blue chippy tea kettle planted with impatients could not be sweeter except it was sold already. Every woman who walked into this booth picked it up. 


This area, arranged between the corner of the barn and a plowed field, belonged to a darling couple Jim and Judi Keith {Recycled Treasures} of Modoc, South Carolina. Judi had arranged wonderful and thoughtful vignettes. The remaining images are from their area.




They had many chippy ladders, windows, and columns.


Even a pink ladder. It would be perfect in a bathroom with towels on it y'all.




This turquoise door would make a perfect photography backdrop. The vintage metal flamingo is not bad either. Your yard is incomplete without one ya know.

To see vintage toys from the sale click here. I did not purchase the two toy trucks in yesterday's post. I was occupied with two cameras and that way I buy fewer items.

  5. You must run back up to South Carolina and buy that turquoise door right now! That is PERFECT! The flamingo looks very familiar. I need to figure out what I did with mine.

  10. Why oh why can't I be at all sales!! Gosh that one looked fun.
    You are so smart to keep those hands busy :)
    I had a baby shoe planted and everyone picked it up as well, yet
    nobody bought it for five bucks!
    I ended up giving it away on the last day to my matron-of-honor from 1989
    who showed up as a surprise :)

  13. The turquoise door is great, but I agree, handling two cameras is a distinct disadvantage when trying to get bargains.

  16. The door and the kettle! Two definite standouts. This looks like it was lots of fun and lots of pleasure to the eyes. Y'all. Don't hear that around here. I've been pegged as a Southerner many times since moving here - and I was born in Canada! A Southerner at heart. Ann

  20. Looks like a great sale! I love the turgoise door. I think it could be made into a garden gate too. OR,
    hanging on a wall . . . I have some old windows painted in that color . . . one of the windows would look cool on the door . . . Oh my, where am I going with this. It is why I love to go to one of these kind of markets . . . finding IDEAS galore is one of the great parts of the trip . . .
    I like the teakettle too . . .
