Fabulous Flea market Finds!

Over the last couple of weeks I have attended a couple flea markets! At the market in Malibu, my friend Franchesca cleaned up...she found all kinds of neat treasures. I found beautiful embellishments that look they could be from the 1930's. I plan on making hair clips out of them!

Adam and I attended the Flea market of old town Tustin. As an Eagle Scout, Adam was drawn to vintage boyscout supplies. He was excited to snatch up a vintage scout knife and stamped, leather holder. He also found a plate, painted by Norman Rockwell. The plate depicts George Washington praying, with two boy scouts. He said he likes the plate because reminds him the integrity he learned from scouts and the honor he holds as an Eagle Scout! He plans on putting the plate up in his office! I found a pair of matching pictures frames that I plan on repainting and crackling!
Fun at the Malibu Flea Market!

That was so fun to go to the Flea market. Next time we go, I'll bring Sun screen. I was so burned that day and it had been forever since I'd gotten burned. I did though get super lucky with finding stuff for cheap.
