Fifty of my favorite flea finds.

This last weekend I happened to be at one of Brooklyn's Saturday flea market. I wish I could bring half of them back. Look at these amazing finds and tell me you don't want to be a flea market junkie as well. I am going to do 10 a day- just so that we can both enjoy them one at a time.

    1. Sculpted Plant Hangers

where/what/how: hang them in your kitchen or balcony, need to be dipped in a bowl once a week to keep them fresh and pretty.

2. Industrial Table

where/what/when: I would use this by my couch/bed, display a great looking piece of sculpture on it

 3. Old Frames with Art

where/what/when: instant touch of vintage in your house

4. Antiques

where/what/when: camera from the 60's, tire ashtray- which was made popular Goodyear back in the day, old dialer telephone

 5.Wooden Letters

where/what/when: hang then with your pictures, buy all 26 and teach your kids alphabets or decorate their rooms or just paint them and leave your initials on a coffee table

 6. Rocking Chair

where/what/when: well apart from sitting on it, it can just make a cozy corner double cozy. Change the upholstery or paint it a different colour for a new look

 7. Ladder Stands

where/what/when: put them in your bathroom to hang towels or use as a book rack or a stand.

love love love this one!

 8.Fancy Victorian Dressing Table

where/what/when: I would use it in my foyer or just outside my bathroom. What not to love with a piece of furniture with a mirror and storage right?

 9. Steel Straws for Mason Jars

where/what/when: sip on water all day, guess what: they are dishwasher safe too.

 10 .Decorative Jar & Lid

where/what/when: could be just decorative or used as a vase.  Click here for inspiration.

Although my husband is usually pretty supportive of my work, he usually complains that every room in the house has some feminine feature. He thinks I will prove to be a good decorator when the boys pay attention to the elements as well. Oh boy! I didn't really take up that challenge- I'm too happy with pretty things around me/us. However, I decided to work on a room just for the husband and the boys to hang (read: i want the drunk boys to stay away from the pretty stuff that can break ). 

Project 1: Lets do up the WALL in the room

Here I used multiple type,size frames. Old advertisement prints- bought some, printed some. Quotes on wood. Caricatures of my husband :). Old cycle tyre. Voila!

 Planning and Execution.

Word ART: where i remind the husband important things in life !!

Completed Project

kidding about copyright of the ideas- let me know when you use it though.

Thanks for stopping by.

Ever looked in your garage and wondered what to do with all the extra stuff? That's happened to me. I have had this situation many times considering my husband is a car junkie. Here's what I did with an old tyre which had run its course. I had actually made a similar one in college, when we were on a budget and needed side tables. I plan to use my new coffee table for out door entertainment. It actually looks great even in a lounging space or carefree living area.  Use, Reuse and Decorate is the motto here.

Like my model? Doesn't he add to the rugged look? Don't forget to leave your comments!
