More of the flea market

When I was at the flea market last Sunday I came upon this gorgeous booth! Look at these beautiful vintage ornaments.
Through talking with the dealer I found out she has a website. It called Grey Garden Collections.

Later I came across another booth of beautiful things....
and found out they have a blog called The Tattered House.
You've seen Marilyn's booth many times on my blog....
It's always beautiful! I took a lot of pictures here...



Look at the gorgeous colors at this booth....
Here's Eddie showing us some vintage Christmas tablecloths...

I loved this big old soup tureen...

and this set of twin beds, and that rose chandelier. There were so many beautiful things at this flea market!Here's the group that spent the morning with Eddie. He was showing us some glassware here...
I'll share what I bought at the flea market for my Show and Tell Friday post, which I'll have up later in the day on Thursday. I spent less than $40 and I came home with some really great things! I had so much fun I want to go back next month!!!

  3. Dear Miss Cindy,
    Whew, I just finished catching up on 2 weeks worth of your blog. To sum it up in its entirety in two words... simply elegant. I truly appreciate your talent and eye for staging and decorating, as well as the awesome photos you take when you're all done. But mostly, your willingness to share so much of you with us. Your humble, sweet spirit shine brightly. Happy Birthday to Lauren! I loved the photo series of her. She's a lucky girl to have you for her mom, as I'm certain she's well aware of that fact.

    Did I miss anything concerning the remake of her room? Or maybe she doesn't want to share it with the world? Anyhow, I've been trying to keep up, but maybe I missed it? I can't wait to see it.

    Hugs,
    Penny Sue

  4. Oooh, love that soup tureen! I like those glass bottles. Looks like a little bling made into initials on those. Very clever and probably easy enough to do at home.

    Drop by - I am having a giveaway.
