MARBURGER ANTIQUE SHOW............


Tommarrow morning at 10 am the Marburger Farm Antique Show opens its doors and tents to the public. This show is the Queen of Antique Shows. The dealers are so proud of the displays, and make an effort of merchandising, that is worthy of the front cover of many magazines.
What makes this show different is the hospitality of the vendors, staff and locals.
This is the "lobby" of the farms office....how quaint is this????


This is the King of the Farm. Rick and his wife and family own and run the show....they are amazing hosts of the event.

These shots are the day before opening day, this is how good these booths look BEFORE they are open, I will show open day shots later. You can imagine how good they look during the show.

Thank you for sharing Marburger with me today. I don't get to the Marburger show every time. And I've never made it to opening day. I was in Warrenton last Saturday and will be back again this coming Saturday. The weather will be fabulous for you gals today. Enjoy.

Smiles,

Carol

Thanks SO much for the Marburger preview... alas, I cannot make it for this Fall Show so I will be living vicariously through all of the photos and posts shared by those of you who had the wonderful opportunity to be there in person!!! Obviously tons of creative genius will be there! Magnolia Pearl style is my favorite and what I wear most of the time so it was a real treat to see the preview of Robin and her Booth!!!
