Flea Market Finds – 8/1/10

Thank you all SO much for your help with my cabinet dilemma! I made a decision and I will show you soon. :)

Last weekend Lindsay and I sold at the flea market again. I only made $90 this time, but you can’t really complain about getting $90 for ridding your house of all the crap stuff, right? Of course, I didn’t exactly come home with $90, because I couldn’t resist these beauties……..

Toile fabric-lined basket: $2 (I think it’s official that I have an obsession with toile – I’m in deep, baby!)

Twig balls (what do you call these?), perfect for fall decorating: $.50 total

While we’re talking about obsessions, it’s also fair to say that I have a big thing for baskets. Lucky for Chris we do not live near a Container Store (although you can you imagine working there and getting the discounts?! Be still my heart!)

I am in loooooooooooove with this giant basket. I’m keeping my living room blankets in it: $4

Check out the worn leather handle! *Swoon*

Lindsay was getting rid of this one so I swapped her something I was selling – I’m using it as a second shoe basket by the front door. We don’t have a mudroom or a foyer or anything so the shoes have to go somewhere!

Vintage pamphlet – $.25 (Did you know you can freeze eggs?!)

I find these baskets everywhere. I already have two that I use for holding crafts and in my pantry. If you spray-paint them Heirloom White they turn out really cute! {$.50 for both}

I also have a minor obsession with fake fruit – I’ve never decorated with artichokes before, but I put some in my kitchen and I love them! {$2.00 for all the fruit}

So, I was out $9.25 for the day. But can you blame me?! :)
