I was originally planning to share this Red, White & Blue Celebration Pattern Play Starter Stack with just the basics and then link the fully expanded table in my Amazon Storefront.

But with so many of these pieces showing limited availability, I decided not to wait.

Here’s the complete table, all styled and layered, so you can see exactly how the starter stack comes together. If something catches your eye, you may want to grab it sooner rather than later because several of these items are already running low.

All that's left to add is the food, friends, and a reason to celebrate! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

One of my favorite treasure hunting activities is visiting estate sales. It's where I've found some of my most-loved dishes, linens, and décor pieces over the years.

I'm often asked, "How do you find all these amazing estate sales?" So I decided to share my process!

🎥 In Part 1, I'm walking you through the first steps I take to locate sales and plan my weekends. If you've ever wanted to uncover hidden gems and vintage treasures, this video is for you.

Check out the link in the comments! Happy hunting! 💙🏺

✨ Four Pattern Play: Starter Stacks... now turned into complete tables! ✨

I've taken my "starter stack" and built an entire table from there. I added layers, mixed in coordinating patterns, brought in colorful glassware, flatware, florals, and lighting, and now you have a table that feels collected and full of personality.

I took these Pattern Play: Starter Stacks and expanded each one into a complete look.

I've rounded up the pieces I used and added them to my Amazon Storefront to make recreating the look even easier. (The menu is the only thing missing... that's up to you! 😉)

I'll drop the link in the comments if you'd like to take a peek and get inspired for your next table.

Which one would you set first? ❤️💙💚🌸

🎉 The Reservation Form for Bradley Acres Dish Camp is officially LIVE! 🎉

After months of planning, dreaming, room makeovers, spreadsheets, estate sale scouting, and more than a few conversations about dishes, I’m excited to say that reservation requests are now open!

If you've been thinking, "I need a weekend like this," now is the time to gather your favorite dish-loving friends and claim your weekend.

Dish Camp is a small-group getaway designed for friends and family who love:

💙 Estate sales and treasure hunting
💙 Antique shopping in Monroe, Georgia
💙 Beautiful tables and dishes
💙 Color, pattern, and layering inspiration
💙 Time to play in the Dish Room
💙 Good food, great conversation, and plenty of table talk

Each weekend is limited to just 3 guests and takes place Thursday evening through Sunday morning.

To request your weekend:

✨ Gather a friend or two
✨ Visit BradleyAcresDesign.com
✨ Click the Dish Camp tab
✨ Complete the reservation form with your preferred date and a backup date

Once your form is submitted, I'll check availability for the weekends you've selected and then send invoices to each attendee. Reservation deposits must be paid within 24 hours of the invoice being sent to secure your weekend.

For now, Dish Camp is designed for groups of friends or family who already know each other. Since guests will be sharing spaces, including a bathroom, I think the experience is best when you arrive with people you're already comfortable with.

That said, I know many of us have friends who love us dearly but don't necessarily understand why we're excited about dishes. 🤣 So I'm also exploring options for future weekends that would allow individual guests to attend and meet other dish lovers who share the same passion for treasure hunting, beautiful tables, and all things china.

Several people have already told me they're planning their girls' getaway, mother-daughter weekend, sisters' trip, or best-friends weekend around Dish Camp, and I cannot wait to welcome you.

If you have questions, drop them below or send me a message.

Now excuse me while I go fluff pillows, organize dishes, and get ready for some serious treasure hunting. 💙

I know one of the things people are curious about with Dish Camp is the cost… so I wanted to share exactly what’s included and the thought process behind it. 💙

Dish Camp isn’t a conference, hotel retreat, or large event. It’s a very small, intentionally personal getaway weekend hosted in our home for only 3 guests at a time.

The cost for Dish Camp is: ✨ $625 per person ✨

That includes:
💙 3 nights lodging
💙 A signature cocktail/mocktail and light snacks upon arrival
💙 Light breakfast Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings
💙 Dinner together Friday and Saturday evenings
💙 Transportation to Monroe antique shops and metro Atlanta estate sales
💙 Hands-on inspiration and learning sessions focused on color, pattern, and layering
💙 Supplies for playing and creating in the Dish Room
💙 A cozy, small-group experience with fellow dish lovers
💙 Plenty of table talk, treasure hunting, creativity, and time together Lunches while we’re out shopping are not included, along with any antiques or treasures you decide to bring home.

To reserve your spot:
💙 $150 reservation deposit per guest
💙 Remaining balance due 5 days before arrival

Because weekends are intentionally very small and space is limited, reservation deposits are non-refundable, but they may be transferred to another guest if something unexpected comes up.

Honestly, my goal for Dish Camp is for it to feel less like an “event” and more like a getaway weekend with friends or family who love beautiful tables, antiques, dishes, and creativity as much as you do.

Reservation details and booking information will be shared next week, and reservations officially go live June 1.

I’m also looking at options for those who would love to attend Dish Camp but don’t already have a group of friends or family to come with. 💙

And for those who may not be able to make the full weekend getaway work, I’m also exploring smaller one-day workshops focused on color, pattern, layering, and playing in the Dish Room.

If Dish Camp sounds like your kind of weekend… I truly cannot wait to welcome y’all.

It’s getting a little greener here… 💚

This gorgeous shade is Sherwin Williams “Grasshopper” and y’all… I cannot wait to show you where I used it. 🥳

It added the perfect pop of fresh color to a project I’ve been working on lately… and I think you’re going to love it. 🍾

“Patience, Grasshopper.” 🦗

Did you know you can actually train your Facebook Marketplace feed to show you the kinds of things you’re on the hunt for? 👀

Right now my FBMP feed is basically a dream mix of pagodas, geisha girl art, chinoiserie, ginger jars, bamboo furniture, and fabulous lamps… all because I’ve been searching for pieces for the guest rooms.

And look what I just picked up! 💗

The soft pink blossoms, touches of blue and green, and that gold frame immediately felt perfect for the room. It has that collected, layered feel I love so much and fits beautifully with the Famille Rose inspiration. 💚🩷

If you want your Marketplace feed to start showing more of what you love, start intentionally searching for terms like:
• chinoiserie
• pagoda
• ginger jar
• bamboo furniture
• Famille Rose
• vintage lamps
• brass accents
• tole

The more you search and click on certain styles, the more Facebook starts serving up similar treasures.

Before long your feed feels like your own personal antique market. 💕

One of the questions I’ve been getting about Bradley Acres Dish Camp is… “Why only 3 guests?”

Well honestly… because y’all are coming to our HOME. 💙

Dish Camp isn’t being held at a hotel or retreat center. We’re inviting a small group of fellow dish lovers into our home for a cozy weekend of estate sales, antiques, beautiful tables, and lots of playing in the Dish Room.

Our home has three guest bedrooms, so a group of three is truly ideal for keeping the experience comfortable, relaxed, and personal.

The bedrooms are upstairs on the top level of our three-level home, while the Dish Room is downstairs on the bottom level… so yes, there will definitely be some stair climbing involved!

The room setup works like this:

💙 The Famille Rose Room
💙 The Devonshire Room
share a Jack & Jill bathroom

💙 The Blue Willow Room
uses the same bathroom through the hallway

And while there’s one main bathroom upstairs for the guest rooms, there are additional bathrooms available downstairs if needed.

More than anything, I want Dish Camp to feel like a fun getaway weekend with family or friends… a relaxed few days filled with treasure hunting, table talk, laughter, and creativity.

So Dish Camp is really designed for:
💙 best friends
💙 sisters
💙 mothers & daughters
💙 small groups of friends who love dishes and beautiful tables

The intent is for groups to attend together rather than individual registrations. Think of it as planning a getaway weekend centered around antiques, estate sales, and the Dish Room.

We are looking at options for growth in the future, but even then I want to keep Dish Camp centered around small groups and personal experiences.

Because honestly… the magic is in gathering around the table together. 💙

✨ Reservations open June 1 ✨
