~Flea Market Style~
Last weekend my gf Susan, my two daughter's Devin & Lauren and I went to the first few flea markets of the new season..It was a gorgeous Sunday morning..My girls are really starting to appreciate these early morning jaunts..They each go looking for their own treasures..Devin loves belts, purses,jewelry & clothing..Lauren loves horses, and is just getting into jewelry..They also enjoy helping momma find the treasures she loves...Which is great..I feel as though my two sets of extra eyes..helps me find some great finds..But Susan and I go knowing exactly what we are looking for..Usually something worn, or pink..sparkling..Rhinestone's are a favorite find..Susan was looking to replace a few items that were broken..I spotted a woman holding a gorgeous vintage white tablecloth..I was holding my breath until she dropped it back into the basket where she found it..I promptly walked right over and snatched it up..$5.00!!! I will be adding a pic of it in this post..I also found a beautiful picture ..French women and a frenchman playing chess..It was love at first sight..Susan said if I didn't get it..it was hers..We have a rule when flea marketing..Whoever spots a piece first..Gets it..Or you can graciously hand it over..LOL..We had to create a system..We both love exactly the same things..It is funny sometimes..we both rush towards a certain piece...But we always act like ladies..We discuss and make our assessments as to ..Do we have a spot for it?..Do we really need yet another mirror?..Most of the time..it's..oh yes!!..We had a great day..And managed to get to two of our favorites before the girls became tired and were ready to go..They were very good and great finds were found by all..We can't wait until the next one in two weeks..I will be posting the finds here and on my Flickr..Enjoy and feel free to comment and tell me about your amazing flea market finds too..I love to hear from you..Have a lovely Sunday..and have a beautiful and romantic week..
