Flea Market Finds

19 September 2009

On my recent trip to the Raleigh Flea Market I only bought two things and spent less than $5. I love the experience of flea markets and love that you can come away feeling like you’ve found a treasure without spending a ton of money. If you don’t mind digging and haggling, it can be a very satisfying experience.

My finds this time around:


a rusty metal… thing ($1)


and an Aqua Ball mason jar ($4).

If you haven’t noticed yet, I like to collect things. Here are some other finds I’ve scavenged over the years from flea markets or from relatives:


an ironstone wash basin and pitcher…


a folding luggage rack with brocade straps…


and a Jasperware pitcher and milk glass vase.

I’ll share more soon if you’re interested.
