Kept House: Small Wonders

A Fairfield Estate Sale Sometimes it really is the small things that make a house feel like home. Welcome to Small Wonders, our next Estate Sale in Fairfield, just off Route 127. This home is filled with decades of collected décor, vintage housewares, seasonal favorites, and those wonderfully unexpected little finds that estate-sale shoppers know are often the most fun to discover. Mom was an elementary school teacher who loved decorating her home—and loved the hunt just as much. During her downtime, estate sales and garage sales were favorite destinations, and over the years she gathered an abundance of pieces for every table, mantel, shelf, floor and season. Expect baskets, metal décor, candleholders, frames, figurines, tabletop accents, floor décor, decorative containers, seasonal pieces and plenty of other small treasures for filling those empty corners and finishing a room. And when the seasons changed, so did the house. There is a significant collection of holiday décor waiting for shoppers who believe it's never too early to start preparing for the next celebration. You'll also discover plenty of nostalgia throughout the home, including: Vintage linens: Bedding, quilts, diningMid-century household itemsVintage kitchenware and housewaresBaskets and decorative storageMetal, tabletop, floor and mantel décorCandles and candleholdersHoliday and seasonal decorationsSmall vintage collectiblesContemporary living room furnitureTelevision, VCR and DVD playersEveryday household goodsAnd plenty of Small Wonders tucked throughout Dad, a retired engineering pattern maker, adds another layer to the story of this household—a home shaped by craftsmanship, practicality, collecting and an appreciation for the details. This isn't necessarily the sale where one giant showpiece steals the room. The fun is in looking closer. It's the basket you suddenly have the perfect spot for. The vintage kitchen piece that reminds you of Grandma's house. The Christmas decoration you absolutely didn't come for. Or that quirky little object you pick up and immediately know is coming home with you. After all, sometimes the smallest finds are the ones that make us happiest. Kept House Estate Sales is cashless.
