Happy Market Friday!
This wall full of metal fish is in the in Berea, KY. The center is right off the freeway and is like a restroom/welcome center with a lot of hand crafted works made by folks in Kentucky.
I always feel thankful for the lovely @dswigle because she works so hard every week to make Market Friday a success!
Now we all know one thing that folks in Kentucky love and that is horses. Check this one out made of welded wire. Take a guess what it costs. I will post it before the end of the post.
Here is some more art from the Center for comparison.
I thought this shovel-chested dog playing the electric guitar was adorible.
Just not that cool!!! For me. No judgment here though. Remember I spent a hundred on some chimes!
This here frog really never minds doing a bit of lawn chores!
If you love buying art, you are not in it to "save" money lol.
For 70 bucks this cutie (piranha) can stalk you for years!
Of course the Kentucky Artisan Center has more that just welded metal objects.
A lot of items containing bourbon but not straight bourbon. I would have grabbed some Makers's Mark after all the problems on this vacation, I need it!
I thought the little puppy was adorable. Well remember the horse? What did you think it would go for?
If you have to ask, you probably cant afford it lol. Not just 54 grand, make it 54,500 lol.

I like all the little handcrafted little items they made. They are really ingenious when it comes to designing things. I especially like the horse and not because I love horses, but, more because it is such an art to be able to visualize when you are creating a piece of that size. I can see this in my downstairs bar area. It would be sweet looking!
The fish are nice too. They would really be fun on a wall, don't you think? You could get them for your house on one of the lakes. :)
Hey! You just missed the Maker Mark Distillery! They were waiting for you! I went to Wild Turkey One. :) Each week, I post for the challenge to provide a different look of American culture, some of it over the top and some, everyday things. Sometimes, I just show places that I have gone to, all having an entry fee to qualify it for the #MarketFriday tag! It is a challenge to find new things during the pandemic, but, we still have to live, so we have been able to pull it off. It shows off how much we are alike and how different life can be. In the end, it makes it an experience that I look forward to. I appreciate the love and support you give to #MarketFriday! It Is heartwarming to see how many posts into the challenge, including you. Thank you! Truly! Your participation adds a unique flavor to the mix. I just love clicking on the link and having a new world open up, right before my very eyes! Thank you again for being a part of all this! I hope you have a lovely week!

Did you guess on the horse price???? Come on girl, fess up now! 😁
Thanks for the generous tip !!!
HA HA...I was guessing 8K on the horse..... my bad !!!
I might have come away with one of those junk yard sculptures though. I really love that stuff.
Those were fun to see.
8000 was a lot closer to it than what I thought!
Yeah they are pretty nifty!
