Earth Weekend at the market

This is a picture of the cab that people painted on Earth Weekend at the market.  It came out very nice!

My Romantic Home found this gorgeous table cloth recently.

Parisian flea market style

Hat-tip to blog, Tea & Tattered Pages, through which we discovered this interesting book by a Japanese publisher about Parisian vintage/flea market style in apartments.

Flea Market as favorite style/decoration source

Check this out: "Melissa K." in Gramercy Park, New York City, converted her 630 SF studio into a one bedroom, which was named one of the coolest small apartments on the Apartment Therapy website. Her favorite resource: Hell's Kitchen Flea Market. :)

e-Commerce literally at (on-"site") a flea!

Here's something interesting: a flea market event where online-based sellers of, I guess, both traditional and non-traditional flea market merchandise will be at a physical flea market showing their merchandise and, obviously, plugging their e-commerce sites, too.

I do suspect that laptops are going to start become more common on-site/on-location as tools for flea market dealers and flea marketeers (management), especially if there are electrical outlets nearby! :)

Chagall print

SFgirlByBay does it again...well, her friend actually. This cool vintage Chagall print. What a great flea find!

Another flea market fire

This from the Augusta Chronicle in Georgia:

The South Augusta Flea Market,1652 Doug Barnard Parkway, is on fire and flames have spread to the nearby woods.

Augusta-Richmond County Fire Department Lt. Neal Brown said the entire market is on fire and the thick black smoke rising from the burn is because of the old wood the market was built from.

"Flea Market Style"

Here's a great book for flea market fans: Flea Market Style, by Emily Chalmers (Author), Ali Hanan (Author), Debi Treloar (Photographer).
