A Walk Through The Fleamarket



































A few weeks ago Mr. Flea took me to the Webster flea market.
 I snapped these random photos with my point and shoot
 as I walked the aisles.
Click on any picture for a clearer and bigger view.
Enjoy!

See anything interesting?

    Don't know what those little figures are, the pile with the bunny on top, but I'll take a bucket full, please! How fun would it be to craft with those? And I've never, ever, ever seen that many hose nozzles in one place. Ever!

    I'm having a give-away over on my blog this month. Hop on over and check it out!

    What a fun market!! I sometimes wonder, with all the antique stores and fleamarkets, where does all the stuff come from??? Think about how many people must have held on to things....back before we had a throw away society.

    Ohhh yeas! I see many things that I like.
    Especially old linen, buttons, laces......

    I´m so happy because the other day I visited a friend of mine, and he is the owner of the most fantastic little shop! I know that you would like it very much :)
    I bought some things there and when I went home in the evening I was smiling all the way home. I was sitting there in the silence - no radio - and just enjoyed that wonderful feeling of happiness.
    Wish you a nice weekend!

    Hello Laura,
    I am a new follower of your blog and loving it every time I stop for a visit. Today you took me along with you and Mr. Flea to this wonderful flea market. I had a great time and was sorry to not be able to virtually spend any money there. However, your photos looked so enticing.....the way the sun hit the crystal, the colorful stacks of vintage lines, the antique and vintage buttons just wanting to be touched.

    It will be hard to get back to today's "to do" list as I would rather go out and scope out my own treasures. Your blog will have to do until this awful job market in Michigan improves.

    Thanks for your wonderful blog. My blog is almost ready to be released into the blogging world but not quite yet. I'll continue to enjoy yours for as long as you put it out there.

    Thanks,

    Nancy H.

    Wow Laura, you have captured some great things on photo! I am esp. drawn to the grain sacks and the plaster (?) bunnies! I just love flea marketing so much & can't wait for flea market season to be in full swing here in the Chicago area! :) I can get so lost in one in a good way.. total therapy for me! Happy weekend!

    Loved the rolls of red striped fabric! And was happy to see the clear glass salt dishes. We found about two dozen in my husband's childhood home. I stacked them up on the open shelves in the kitchen where we store our vintage glassware.

    Hi, Laura! I checked out your blog this evening after seeing it featured in Artful Blogging. So many of your gorgeous photos caught my eye--but as a recent convert to the world of altered art, the handmade book pictured under the heading "Journal on My Journey" was definitely my favorite! Was it a flea market find, or did you use some vintage pieces from your collection in creating it? So very inspirational!:-)

    Ooooh don't you just love the "back" section at Webster?! I live here in Orlando and only get to go a couple of times a year (read that as Monday holidays - stupid job!) The last time I went I left empty handed...so sad. Especially since I practically have to pack breakfast, lunch and dinner for the drive to and from. Usually it's totally worth it! They had some good stuff for you trip - i'm jealous!

    I have just found your blog and couldn't believe when i read the post about Webster! I just posted about it myself this past week! On another note I am so sorry to read of your Mother's passing. I can only imagine the heartache you are feeling as my Mom and I are so very close as well. We just recently bought a vacation home in my parents' community down in Florida in the hopes of sharing precious time together although i think there's never enough time with loved ones. My heart goes out to you!
