Small Town Treasures By Mary Chavoustie Highway 290 to Austin is a busy thoroughfare the first two weekends of April and October as antique lovers reconnect with their favorite dealers. Smart shoppers know the back roads and which small towns offer great finds every week of the year. For over 50 years, Frazier’s in Hempstead has satisfied yearnings for everything concrete. Elegant fountains to whimsical pigs are spread across eight acres, making it hard to choose a favorite. Burton is famous for it’s annual Cotton Gin Festival but owner/designer Heidi Matthies-Jaster has her own following with The Nesting Company. Customers can select the perfect nature-themed gift to go with one of Matthies-Jaster’s fresh floral arrangements. The magnificent Festival Concert Hall at the Round Top Festival Institute is acclaimed as one of the world’s leading performance and learning cen- ters for music. The 200+ acre venue is equally a delight for plant lovers with its ten gardens, exhibiting a collection of botanical specimens from around the world. Round Top’s Henkel Square is experiencing a rebirth, thanks to Austin- based MLD Holdings. Enhancements to existing buildings, dating from the 1830s to 1900, will bring a welcoming village atmosphere to the town. Copper Shade Tree will share the new address with the works of over 90 Texas artisans, as will artist Beth Anderson, famous for her signa- ture Painted Churches. Across the street, Bybee Square remains home to great pizza, cool music and one-of-a-kind shops. For example, at The Gallery at Round Top, you’ll find a wide variety of artworks. At Comforts, check out the selection of decorative doorknockers and colorfully pat- terned lamps, just to name a few. “Kitchy and vibrant” best describes Carmine’s Texas Trash and Treasures. Richard and Linda Hamilton repurpose 50- to 100-year-old roofing tin from old tobacco barns to create treasures that brighten the home and gar- den. Next door, artist Diane Tovey uses old-world techniques at her cus- tom stained glass and mosaic art studio, The Glass Anvil. Hunting Season Antlers and animal hides aren’t just for the gun-toting guys in camouflage – the fall is full of antiques events from here to the hill country. We’ve scoped out the best antiques events around and gathered all the goods for avid antiquers and nervous newbies. Here’s a chronological list of what’s not to be missed, but please note that there are dozens of additional shows this fall. STANCY HIGLEY PHOTOGRAPHY
