Flea Market Finds!!!!

Well Finally Made it out to an Actual REAL live Flea Market !

Not just some pretend maybe make it to the end of a sale.. or run by .. stop & see whats still left over type thing! I actually was able to get over to one that was worth going to early in the morning!

& WHOO Hooo! Got some deals too!

A supr nice perfect condition old Jar With the lid still for $3.00.. One guy had a hand full of old wooden Spools/Bobbins.. 5 of them.. He said $10.00.. I said i'll give you $5.00.. he said they are really old.. i said i know.. yes.. they are.. but they are really common.. so they are good for $5.00.. i'll give you $5.00.. He wanted to argue about what great deal he was giving me.. i told him to have a great day.. & walked away.. they guy followed me to the next booth & handed them to me.. ok.. $5.00 he said.. yep.. thats what i said.... Funny.. because at the end of the day I ran across another man that had 3 really pretty red cone shaped ones.. he had them marked for $3.00 each or 2 for $5.00 But said I could have them for a buck each.. see.. Yeah.. Thats what they are.. one dollar.. Just like i told the first guy.. right?

Anyway.. Some different Copper Molds that IF you can believe it.. I DON'T already have! A corn image.. a heart shape with geese on it i think.. & one with a Chicken image in the center of a round one.. Lets see..what else.. Oh.. An Enamleware Stock pot for $2.00..Big deal! Though that was a great big deal! I'd have paid more for sure!

Oh.. a plaid wool throw for a dollar.. I'm telling ya.. they were nearly paying me to take this stuff!! A really cool HUGE whisk.. i'm thrilled with.. that was $2.00 & same guy had a wooden green handled something.. see it in the picture? not quite a whisk.. maybe sort of a strainer.. Anyway.. I already know who's hose THAT'S going to live in.. Certain someone I know just LOVES GREEN stuff.. even a little more then i do.. So.. it's hers! OOoohh A copper Christmas tree cookie cutter & a Scottie Dog Cookie cutter.. Each for 50 cents..hand full of lace stuff..All for $6.00!!! A small cream colored runner type things very pretty.. you can see it under the whisk.. a round one trimmed in red & another larger one.. the people at that booth were a hoot.. we were probably having a bit too much fun with the lace.. I think they may have decided to stick a couple things back in a bag & take them back home.. I may have re-awakened some ideas for alternate uses for a few things! I found a Big box full of these smaller boxes made from old Cheese boxes! they were all priced at one or two dollars.. depending on the size.. i grabbed a few of these.. great for pens or pencils or paint brushes I thought! Can't seem to remember anything else.. oh.. OHHH!! I got one of those Green 'leather' jewelry boxes.. the hinge that holds it open is broken.. So i got it for $2.00.. it's lined with gold velvet.. really pretty.. of course for me.. these things are all for craft stoarage.. so i think.. what can I stick in this!

But the very best thing I got from this old guy.. was this really cool box FULL of MY FAVORITE STUFF!! Rick Rack & Bias Tape... Some of it is so dang old.. But HOW AWESOME!! You wouldn't believe it! Most of it is all still in packages too..

GOBS of it! & a little baggie of snaps & buttons too All for $2.00..

I Really made a Great Haul this time.. & didn't spend all that much either!

Treasures!!!!
