It was an early, cold and drizzly morning.....and I was in HEAVEN!!!
Flea market season has officially begun.
I went with two of my sweet friends and neighbors.
I didn't take a lot of pictures because my hands were FULL!
My favorite purchase of the day was some vintage linens to use on my aprons and awesome vintage paper items. I am always a sucker for vintage papers. I paid a little more than usual but they were worth it.
What fun did you have this weekend?
Hi Jeanne, well not as exciting as you, oh I wish I could have gone to the flea market it looked devine!!
I was busy sewing head dresses for my childrens school they are doing Joseph & his tecnical dream coat I offered to help, 30 head dresses later yipeeee I have finished.

Oh Jeanne, I would have loved to have been there. Just by the look of your pictures it would have been dangerous. Thanks so much for sharing.

Fun! I need to find a flea market in Iowa. Looks like it was, indeed, cooooold though.

Your flea market looks way nicer than the one they have around here. I had a wedding and a graduation party to attend over the weekend. I have'nt been to a wedding in a long while and it was just beautiful! Of course, I cried. Have a great day Jeanne!

Hi Jeanne, the play is at the end of this week so they will be needing them for the dress rehersals tomorrow, that was a close one phew.
Yes this coming weekend I feel I should maybe take a relaxing walk along the beach & have a beach coming day. :)

Jeanne!...where the heck is that?! I would die for a good street market! Ever since we moved to CO from CA (6 years ago!) I haven't found a good street market. Now that soccer season is over, maybe a can fit in a little browsing. :)

What a fun flea market- my hands would have been full too!
We went to a birthday party, did yard work and cooked foil dinners in the fire pit.
Yep, you had way more fun!

Looks like a fab time at the flea market, Jeanne! I did get to go junking for a bit in my favourite junk barn - found a fabulous old metal rack and some more old bottles/
