My Junky Market finds
I’m a little behind as these pics are from last month’s Rose Bowl Market–and I’m only now getting around to posting them up–oopsies! I went with Faith the weekend before my wedding to pick up some last minute linens I needed. Faith found that cool Tiger mask–and I saw so much great stuff but was really focused and only ended up coming home with stuff I needed for the wedding (*patting myself on the back*) I did see some tempting stuff–like this little Mad-Men style cardboard doll-house (or should I say doll-room) or the earrings which I almost ended up buying to wear for the wedding but they were heavy on my lobes. If I were about ten sizes smaller I probably would have found my wedding gown here too–but all of the old lace gowns that I love so much were all of the teensy-tiny variety–and surely were not trying to squeeze a baby-bump in too! Now that I’m looking over the pics– I regret not having gotten that aqua-green table/lamp thing-for me of for a client– How cool is it? It was a good price too–dangit–but these day’s schlepping bulky things around in the sun with my belly is not too tempting.
Still deciding whether to hit up the market this weekend. If I go for it–will I see you there?
go, on my behalf! i miss that place like crazy…and yes, the green lamp thing was a damn good find. it may still be there, ya never know….
that ottoman/table/seat thing on the very top is amazing! i am hopefully taking a trip to san francisco this month and i am super excited about hitting up the local flea markets/vintage shops. we have a lot of vintage shops here (PDX) but not many flea markets unfortunately.
so cool stuff – I love flea markets. Plan to hit a few during April and May. Fingers crossed for some great finds!
I love all of your posts, Justina! Thanks for always adding some color to my day.
wow!! those are some awesome finds!!!
See you there!
oh my! I hope to find some of those cloth calendars this sunday, I want to make a cafe curtain out of them!
So much great stuff! Yep, that lamp was rather awesome. Have a great Easter break.
