Scouting the Country Living Fair in Rhinebeck

I’ve been trying to figure out which shows would be a good fit for my work. I heard about Country Living Magazine’s Fair in Rhinebeck and thought it might be a fit. While it sparked some ideas for projects, there was very little original art. Mostly there were antiques. Funky stuff, for sure, but not the antique/art blend I was hoping for. It was a beautiful day and the place was packed, so people were there to shop. But from the conversations I overheard, they’re looking for the fantastic buy and the one-of-a-kind vintage doodad. Think Joanna Gaines. Not fine art buyers. Back to scouting, and most likely sticking closer to home. I did find an awesome Father’s Day/birthday present for my hubby though.
