We’re pleased to announce that Lucy Horton from @mynookshop is the winner of best stand in the fair for @decorativelivingfair 2022

The judges had a tough time choosing an outright winner as everyone had made such a fantastic effort with their stands. We really are so grateful to the exhibitors for all the thought and preparation they put into their displays to create such a beautiful fair … we couldn’t do it without you!

Well, that’s a wrap on @decorativelivingfair 2022
It’s sad to see all the exhibitors leave with their beautiful stock and the lawns at Eridge Park without the marquees

Over the next week or so we’ll bring you more photos of the event but in the meantime we hope you’re enjoying the images from exhibitors & visitors on our stories

AND look out for the announcement of the winner of best stand at the fair!

when you know what you want and don’t leave until you get it. Starts young! One of many sweet moments yesterday watching people enjoy the fair, with fabulous stock spilling out if every stand, in the sunshine all afternoon. If you got home and thought -‘drat I wish I’d bought that, now which stand was it on?’ there is a downloadable map of the show available on the website, which you can also use on your phones if you are visiting today. Link to website in bio. #saturdaydaysout #childfriendly #lunchonthelawn #brocantestyle

@howgreennursery have filled the terrace at @decorativelivingfair with the most gorgeous array of perennials - peonies about to pop, some delicious salvias and tiarellas, alliums and verbena in just the right shade of purple. A perfect opportunity to boost your borders with healthy plants grown by Simon and his team - they are a wholesale nursery open to the public only on a few days each year so we feel very lucky to have them at the fair, especially as they grow for top designers exhibiting at RHS Chelsea Flower Show. #perennials #summergarden #howgreennursery @hetty_purbrick

The lovely Amy from @amy_brocanteliving has been out in France pounding the streets in search of decorative antiques for @decorativelivingfair tomorrow and Saturday

She is a former winner of best stand in the show and with her stylish displays of beautiful French finds, Amy sells out fast

So in order to avoid disappointment, make sure you book an Early Bird ticket online for TOMORROW from our website www.decorativelivingfair.co.uk - see link in our bio above

We have persuaded @sjlfeatherstone to bring some of her beautiful botanical artwork which sits perfectly with her decorative and vintage items

She will be selling her original drawings with limited edition prints and some prints will have a special @decorativelivingfair price

Sarah draws with a black pen straight to paper and says her inspiration comes from a brilliant botany teacher at school which has led to a life long appreciation and love of plants

While she describes her decorative stock as anything with good texture, form and quirky beauty

We’re looking forward to welcoming her to @decorativelivingfair for the first time and to seeing this great combination on her stand tomorrow and Saturday

One of the things makers love best about @decorativelivingfair is finding lovely vintage fabrics s and haberdashery. @suitablyvintage Sue Pohling always has a great gathering of pieces, large and small, as well as buttons and trims. Looking forward to seeing her textile foragings. The smallest piece of fabric can inspire so much - from a room scheme to a new embroidery. You could even find scraps to use on the creative mending sampler workshop being taught by @ostrichandsilkworm Karen Thomas. #vintagefabricstyle #vintagefabric #vintagebuttons #vintagehaberdashery @hetty_purbrick @carolinezoobdesign

@franklinsinteriors specialise in Continental furniture with lovely original paint and patina. They have just received a new shipment in time for @decorativelivingfair this Friday and Saturday

They will also have a wide selection of galvanised pots, troughs and big bath planters which would look amazing all planted up in your garden 🌸

This was the view from Eridge Park yesterday morning when we arrived to start the marquee build … it couldn’t have been more breathtaking!

The team from @brooksmarquees are doing a fabulous job and by the end of yesterday the main structures were in place. Still lots to do though before we can welcome you to @decorativelivingfair this Friday and Saturday

And if you’re worried about losing that view, the weather is set fine so you can sit outside infront of the cafe tent run by @hattonsofroyaltunbridgewells and enjoy it in all its glory, along with coffee and cake or a light lunch - all locally sourced and freshly made to Dan’s very high standards

If you’re a treasure hunter, then look out for the stand of @mynookshop

Lucy Horton is new to @decorativelivingfair and over the last few weeks she’s been documenting her angst over how to choose which items to bring to the fair … we’re sure she’s made all the right decisions and we really look forward to seeing the results this Friday and Saturday at Eridge Park

The ‘James’ of James & Joanna Design is a rath

The ‘James’ of James & Joanna Design is a rather wonderful lino cut artist and Joanna makes his creations into the most covetable and immaculate cushions and lavender hearts. I am very excited about their new ‘inspiration’ linocut pieces block printed onto antique linen and plan to have a play with them on my stand at the @decorativelivingfair this week. They also sell framed block printed pieces, hand-painted monograms, gorgeous vintage and antique pieces and beautifully made cushions and lampshades. They style their stand such that you want to move in. #linocutting #appliedarts #decorative home #countrystyle #cushions #grainsack #handmade

We’re very lucky that so many of our exhibitors literally go the extra mile to source decorative antiques for the fair … Kate Taylor from @etoilebrocante is no exception as she’s recently returned from a big trip round France and Belgium

Kate is a regular exhibitor at our fair and you’ll always find unique decorative items on her stand along with a warm welcome when you visit this Friday and Saturday.

As can be seen from the stylish luxury to which my co-organiser @hetty_purbrick ‘s adorable Dachsies are accustomed, the ‘no dogs’ rule at @decorativelivingfair does not in any way reflect our feelings about dogs. However, the fair is set on the front lawns of the house and the hitse is set in a deer park and insurance makes it difficult. So, with regret, dogs are not allowed at the fair. #nodogsallowed #butwelovedogs

So excited to see what @seapink.shop has been making for the @decorativelivingfair this week! embellishing and adjusting antique French linen smocks; using embroidered curtains to make gorgeous dresses, each one unique and the last word in sustainability. Sue also sells decorative antiques and antique fabrics. #antiquefrench #antiquefrenchsmock #upcycledclothing #vintagestyle

A thoughtful, pared-back style entirely in keeping with the slow and simple aesthetic is what @willandbea are about. Home is clearly of central importance to owner, Hayley, and her stand at @decorativelivingfair is always a calm, considered and very beautiful space. A wonderful photographer and stylist, Hayley always fills her stand with d ampules of her own creativity, often using collage techniques with antique papers and prints. #naturalhome #simplehomestyle #slowhomeexperiment #buildingyourownhome #paleandinteresting #frenchceramics #stoneware #frenchsoap
