My good friend, Kasey, and I went to the local flea market on Saturday and what a beautiful day! I also got to meet this wonderful blogger who we happened to run into there...of course, I suffered from a blogger's worst nightmare! I forgot my camera! Thank goodness Kasey had brought her's, so you can pop over by her to see a bit more. But I can share with you some of my "finds".
A vintage tablecloth
Some old printing blocks from a factory. Pretty cool.
And these great letter press blocks and metal stamp. There is a guy there who has boxes and boxes and he's now my buddy after a little bargaining.. if you go tell him Jen sent ya.. ,
I found a set of these bunnies and haven't decided if I am going to keep them. I can't decide if they are cool or freakishly ugly.
A vintage table runner.
And my last great find, an awesome $8 wire basket that I truly thought was going to hold all of my Romantic Homes magazines or some cool table display... nope. shoes.
We had a blast. I am looking forward to spending more time together with these ladies as we are all going to the Farm Chicks show. Are any of you going?

Such wonderful finds! I really need to check out our local Flea one of these days. I went all the time when I lived back East. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLovely table runner! So cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great vintage tablecloth!
ReplyDeleteI have to say...in the bottom photo...I wasn't sure what you bought at first and I was like, "OMGoodness, please don't tell me she bought the shoes", LOL! It's late and time for bed I guess, LOL. The shoe basket is a great find. ;)

LOVE the letter press blocks and metal stamp! Fun finds! Oh how I wish we had a good local flea market.
ReplyDeleteYou won't believe this, I have that same bunny. Mine has been sprayed a creamy white. He never did have any color on him except for brown. I must say mine isn't as, hum, how to say it? Ugly? Just kidding. Love your blog.

I just discovered your great site! I look forward to going through your posts; they are packed with great ideas from what I have seen so far. Have a wonderful day….~Cathy~
ReplyDeleteFlea glorious flea! You did good, girl! I love, LOVE the printing blocks...and the basket! Totally up my alley.
ReplyDeleteI love your new shoe basket! I've learned that it's pointless to keep kids shoes lined up in neat rows...just throw them in a basket! ;-)
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, your finds a fantastic. Were you out here at the Kane Flea? I was there too this past month.
ReplyDeleteSecond, of course you are friends with the owner of Lola B's. I stopped in there last fall for the first time and totally fell in love. I remember thinking that I needed to be friends with the owner because her shop was so fab. Love it!!
