I am toddling off to my first market today and am a bit concerned. I know that I won't make much, and that it is the wrong kind of market, but I just feel that I have to take that first plunge and get accustomed to the water, so to speak.

Flea Market Finds - Daggy Picture or Masterpiece for a Stylista
Yawn yawn. I am writing this at 12.30 in the morning so I don't miss out on a posting for Flea Market Finds at Sophies place. Call me desperate, consciencous or plain pig headed, I must and I will complete everything on my list. (I know my spelling is atrocious, but the little grey cells have stopped working)
I am toddling off to my first market today and am a bit concerned. I know that I won't make much, and that it is the wrong kind of market, but I just feel that I have to take that first plunge and get accustomed to the water, so to speak.
Any hoo, what have I found this week? Quite a few little bits and bobs and fabric, but it is late so I will take a pic and go to bed. Please excuse the flash on the picture, it isn't the sun. Oh, by the by, the West German pots are all op shop finds...these are only a small part of the collection. I put them in to indicate the size of the print. It is quite soothing. I am not sure if it is totally daggy or has that special edge. It is 1950's with the great white frame.
I also got about five metres of this 60's stretch fabric. It will be good for upholstery and cushions. I have in mind a couple of footstools. Tart them up, and they will look a treat! Well, I'm off to bed now possums. Nighty night xxNick
