Sharing some flea market finds


Let me set the scene...
It's last Friday morning and the temperature is 35 degrees (with wind)
I wasn't sure if the flea market vendors would be out....but I decided to take a shot.
A little over half of them were selling, 
...so I pulled on my gloves 
...put on my Uggs
...popped up the hood on my heavy winter coat
(whole time in disbelief that it was time to even take this stuff out of the closet)
 applied some chapstick
...was on my way!


 How can I resist a big handful of vintage jewelry for $7.00?
No resisting...had to have it.


There has never been a little deer on a flea market table that I have walked past.
Each one goes into my bag...this little guy marked Japan was $1.00.
He now shares a spot with all his friends in my home.


By the time I stumbled upon this old Autograph book for only $3.00 
I had forgotten about being cold.
Isn't it interesting?
when you find something you love and something you love to do 
it is so easy to get lost in the moment & just simply enjoy life.

There is a great week ahead...I hope you enjoy!

Well, the fact that you put on you UGGS, was one great thing. At least your feet were super warm ( I LOVE mine too).
Great finds. I think you did well Tami.

Hello Tami, Thank you so much for your visit to my PS post. We traveled on Sat to FL so my visits are belated.

There is nothing like the hunt to find a treasure in a thrift shop, an antique store etc. I can feel the fun you had even though the weather was 'COLD'. I love your wonderful treasures. I bet the autograph book was so much fun. Good for you for braving the elements. It sure paid off huh?

I love your photos from your NYC trip.I love to visit NYC in Manhattan. Especially Central Park.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
Blessings, Jeanne
