At The Flea Market

Last weekend, as I told you before, the weather was gorgeous.  It was a bit cold early in the morning when we (the hubs and me), headed to our community flea market.  We usually walk, but this time we drove to get there.  It was the first one to be held this year, so I was pretty excited to walk around looking for those special finds!

There were not as many vendors as usual but nonetheless, we managed to come back home with some treasures.

My husband liked these binoculars, he was looking for vintage cameras, but there were none.  I love the binoculars leather case and my kids thought they were very "cool".  The price is $5.

I'm growing my stash of silver pieces, the one with the rounded shape and little feet is my favorite so far.  Its price is $3.
A little research on the other one gave me an eBay copycat: "The White Horse Scotch Pewter Jug Liquor Pitcher" it sells there for $35,  more than what we paid for all of our finds.  My pitcher was only $2.

Two silver vases, not crazy about the color but they might come in handy for photo sessions!  $2 each.

A set of picture frames that were not in great condition.

But I liked their summer feel, hmmm maybe because of the dolphin :)  Well, for only a dollar for both of them, what's not to like!

The first find of the day was this basket/tray, I loved the chunky feel, and the materials, at first I didn't like the color.

But it worked perfectly during my new family room wall reveal.  I might paint it though.  The price is $2.

Last but not least a pair of router bits.  The biggest expense is $10 for both!  If I get them at the store the price will be way higher than that.

Something else that we came home with was this vibrant chair, it was picked from the curb! I need to check what kind of damage it has and if it's something worth fixing, just looking at it makes me smile.

Those were all our findings.  We were thinking of spending only $20, but we ended up paying $28.  The router bits were the ones who set us backward, but hey I know it's a good buy!

How about you?! Have you attended a flea market this year, are my prices comparable with the ones in your area?  What's your greatest find so far?

I can't wait to attend next month's flea market!
