I haven't been on a good thrift or flea market excursion in a while, and that makes me sad. There are a few reasons..one..um, I'm kinda running out of space. lol. I can't bring home much more stuff into my little condo. Two..my daddy is my go to buddy..he has a great eye, is able to tell me if he can actually accomplish the project I have in mind, and is great at getting a price to drop. Last time we went to the shops in Ventura, we brought my mom along, and she complained and got bored and looked like we were dragging her through a jail. It's just not her thing. So I told her she can stay home in the future and not stifle our creative spirit. So, until football season ends, I won't be hitting up the Rose Bowl anytime soon.
On a vacation to nice, Caitlin wandered into a french flea market
Camilla posted about the Trading Post in Poughkeepsie that has BANANAS inventory. Bamboo chairs...30.00 I would have an entire set.
Could his transformation be any more amazing?
One of my best buys was a 5.00 chair I scored when I went on the Rose Bowl flea market trip with Eddie Ross, who would've thought it would turn into George's favorite place to stalk to squirrels
Have you ladies scored anything lately? Leave me some inspiring comments to get me out to the stores!
Thanks for the mention! Great article! I wish my dad was into the flea market thing! I took him once to the Fairfax Flea Market (the easiest one to conquer and quickly)- he was done the second we parked!!
