Ohio fleas

I have been holding out on the flea market excursion I took a few weeks ago. It was a big event with lots of vendors - definitely worth the 3-hour drive. We had a blast & found some sweet stuff for our shop.

we woke up at 5am to get there right when it opened (8am). Don't I look pretty?


And of course I came away with a few things for myself too!

I bought this blue desk for $35


I got this great library table for $50 - which I plan to paint a bright color one of these days...


I'm kinda sad Ohio Flea Market season is coming to a close. I'm not ready for winter! But, it will be something to look forward to next year.

What great things you find - isn't it great when you and your special purchase first lock eyes? You just know, and it's kind of love at first sight. I have a couple of chairs I fell in love with one day. I saw right through their shabby clothes to their beautiful bones.
