Found Goodness

Love this sign that I scored for 2.00. As soon as I saw it, I wanted to get a sharpie and instead of writing times….I wanted to write “all day, baby”….because we need to “enjoy it…..all day”!
The front side of my fantastic sign….and it will be hanging in the studio  from now on.

Vintage Pyrex Beakers. I have been “eyeing” these for a while, and I probably paid too much….but I really loved the simple dot, and the graphics….it was worth the wait.

These paintings caught my eye as soon as I saw them in the booth, and I loved them…but walked on by. In the end, they had me at hello…and my shelves at home are ever so glad to have some new artwork to add to the mix.

…here is a close up of the beautiful color, and if you would like to get some for yourself head on over to Bridgets Facebook page: Bridgetblocks

I also found the prettiest stack of plates. Two blue, and two pink which I promptly made cake stands out of….and wouldn’t you know I had customers stopping by the studio this week wanting cake plates! Perfect timing!

I also found the perfect treat for the hubs…
..a street sign bearing his name…I totally flipped over this one.
Last….sadly, there was one…..that got away
I heart this “open” sign so much….but for 50 bucks….. I told myself it was too much….. only to frantically go back a bit later to purchase it! Unfortunately for me it had already been claimed. Boo Hoo!
All in all….Lucketts was a fantastic time….and even though I bought more for myself than for Knack ….it was fun to buy things for my own home…..for once!
xo,

  1. Glad you had a good time! I'm hoping to go next year.

    Looking forward to the Indie Craft Parade this year. Do you think you'll be participating again?

  2. I just wrote about this very same concept….buying for MYSELF! lol We get so caught up in what we are doing and trying to get deals, that we forget to splurge and buy for ourselves just because we like something. I just spent a day doing nothing but looking for myself and my home without thinking about The Homeless Finch. Was a nice day. We gotta remember to do this. Thanks for sharing!

  3. great finds! i loved the collection of purple bottles the pyrex lady had… they were awesome!!!
    i got some cool letters i haven't shown yet. i keep forgetting! :)

  5. I have so enjoyed living vicariously through all the flea market reports the past couple of weeks online. Thanks for sharing. I have a good feeling an even better OPEN sign will present itself soon – and let's say…for 1/2 the price. ;) Fingers crossed.

  6. Lovin' your "enjoy" sign! If one day you should tire of it, you know who to call ;)

  7. Great finds! I know the woman who paints the blocks. Aren't they neat?

    So great to meet you there!

    By the way, I can paint a sign just like that for you and I won't even charge you $50. :) I just have to find the right piece of wood. Let me know if you want one…

  8. Next time you go to this you are putting me in your pocket! Hello lovelies. You did a great job. The sign…too much. His rejection is protection. ha ha
    Well done homie. xo

  9. i saw your lucketts pictures on fb and about died!! i have to admit..i was so green with envy. i miss our open market we used to have here in atlanta. i so wanted to be there! love all your finds but those bridgetblocks are adorable!! i totally think you could come up with an "open" sign that would put that one to shame! ;)
