HAD A GREAT DAY FRIDAY !!
My sister Sandy, her friend Cherrie and I all left early Friday morning to go to a new flea market that had just opened two weeks before..
We found the place and it was HUGE, I mean super-big..!!
It was in an old Bartons lumber building.. There were rooms and rooms of booths.. We were in " Flea Market" delight..
Well , right away I find the neatest shelf.
Was looking for a long shelf that you could hang a textile runner on and this one was perfect.. Actually , it can be used to display plates on and I love it..
Sorry I forgot to take " before" pictures. Already started painting it black.. so I'll show the " after" soon..
Next. I find another shelf... it has four shelves and pegs on bottom .. It's in the process of being painted black , also..
Can you tell I love black???? well, I do !!
Then I find this neat pineapple lamp and I snatched that up really fast.. gonna order a punched tin shade with pineapples on it. Of course, I have to paint it black first..
Wait, wait... that ain't all....
next I find another lamp... a little spool lamp and it's the cutest little thing... oh, I'm havin' me a good " flea day".
No, not gonna paint it black... just put a little briwax on it to spruce it up a bit.. and of course get a cute little shade for it..
What kind should I look for ... I'll have to ponder that one a bit... any suggestons !!!!
Then when I think I've got my limit, what do I find but this... and OH I'm lovin' it.
An iron candle holder...already black.. can you beat that one..
Gonna put battery candles in it..
And I even come away with enough
money to buy lunch..
Such a day, I ain't had in a long
time...
well, I guess that about wraps it up for this time..
I'll be showin' some "after" pictures soon when I get the shelves all painted and hung... and decorated up with some prim stuff..
So watch for the next chapter in the
"FLEA MARKET SAGA"
