Saturday, Joanna and I posted the flyer for Chicago's
Randolph Street Market Spring Fling Event at the historic Plumbers Hall. We spent the first hour on Sunday attempting to actually get there. You would think by now we would be experts at following directions but that was not true in this case. I mean, you can't really blame us. Chicago is a huge city after all! :)
It was our first time attending this market and we were pleasantly surprised at how many vendors actually participated. There were three huge floors of vendors selling everything from antiques, art, decor, jewelry, and vintage CHANEL (drooling at the thought of this right now). Joanna and I spent an exceptional amount of time at one particular stand, Man in the Moon Antiques. The owner Blair has an awesome collection of antique jewelry from pretty much every single era in the past 100 years. I actually think Joanna may have even found her future engagement ring here (hint, hint Adrian)! We both went on a jewelry escapade after that and bought so many beautiful and affordable pieces from other vendors. I left with a bag full of jewelry while Joanna also left with jewelry and some other cool knick-knacks.
Things that have now been officially added to my wish list for our next visit is a vintage school locker, House of Kym floral bed end bench, vintage Missoni dress, and a 6 feet bull horn that would have left with me had it not been for my lack of space at home...tear.
The next event taking place at Plumbers Hall is Modern Vintage Chicago. Stay tuned for more details...
In the meantime, take a look at some of our Spring Fling goodies.
