I come here for both business and pleasure. I'm a design consultant for KV Design. Mostly I'm looking for unique things for home decor. I want inspirational pieces with a wow factor, preferably in a color I could build a room around. We got an oversized Oriental style chair for my client's bathroom today. And I bought a cherub lamp for $30. It was a great buy. I'm excited.

I've been coming here for more than 30 years now. It's my favorite day of the year and my friends can hear it in my voice. I love the people; I love the food. It's a different world here and you have to bargain; it's part of the game. I come for two days each market and I'm here all three times a year. I try to shop it all and I always get a Greek salad here at the New England Motel food court. Sometimes I take a new recruit with me. This is my client. It's her first time here.

My favorite is Max at Sandstone Gardens. He is from Joplin, MO and I almost always buy from him. He's got beautiful garden stuff. The fountains make me feel calm and refreshed. The best thing about Brimfield is the size and variety. I love the vendors and their interesting stories. What I like least is the extremes of weather.
