Sailing off to Brimfield

It’s finally here, the week I’ve been waiting for…the excitement of the hunt, networking with designer friends old and new, and rubbing elbows with fancy designers like The Novograts and Cari Cusksey (Thanks to the amazing organizers of the #Brimfield Tweet up event) it’s Brimfield Fair week at MK Design.  I’m sorta new to the whole Brimfield game, but over the past few years I’ve gotten a little experience under my belt.  You might remember my Suzy Said post about the ins and outs of Brimfield (Yes, I can negotiate with the vendors & No, I still haven’t found that lunch box).  This year I am on a mission, and that mission is BURGEE FLAGS!  Dunno what those are?  (Don’t worry, I just learned the technical term myself)

See, you’ve seen them before, the adorable little sailing flags!

And for me, the kitchier the better!

Why am I hunting for burgee flags you ask?  Well, I’m getting ready to launch a new home decor line, MK Coastal!  Don’t worry, you’ll be hearing lots more about it soon, but in the meantime I need to find flags.

There is so much Brimfield ground to cover and so little time (although one could argue that two days with no kids in tow is like an eternity). So, if you are out in the fields and see some burgee flags and other nautical stuff PLEASE Text me, Tweet me, Call me…whatever…just give me a shout!  Like my fellow blogger over at Everything in 3’s, (yes, I will be on the lookout for your vintage signs) let’s work together.  And as my little boys remind me Team work doesn’t seem work!  See you in the fields people, what can I help you find?
