flea market:













Been taking a couple trips to the flea market lately for displays for our shop. Did I mention here in Southern California there is one held EVERY weekend? They're put on by different groups in different cities and it just so happens it's one every weekend, pretty cool. We're really fortunate to have them so close & so often! Love visiting the market, it is so fun finding and searching for treasures.

Funny story - Nick has been having some dreams lately where he's at an antique market and finds a bunch of old vintage video games for like, a dollar or something. I told him it's pretty hilarious he is dreaming about finding good antique deals ;)

Do you have markets in your area? If you live in or are new to SOCAL, last year I posted a list of markets here in case you're not sure where to go! If you're not in California, I'd try googling antique markets / thrift stores  / antique malls in your area! <3 happy thrifting!

  4. I have to admit, sometimes I get so intimidated by going to markets and thrift stores. So much stuff. It is definitely an event in and off itself at times.

  5. I love hunting this type of place for bargains - we don't get them much where I live in the UK.
    Love those door handles - they're exquisite!

  6. I live in the South, so the pickins here are easy. However, not as many places are open in the winter. Anyway, let Nick know that my husband buys vintage video games all the time for a dollar or less. Seriously.

  7. I would love to visit a flea market like this, unfortunately we don't have anything very similar in the UK - the closest we get are car boot sales!

  8. Great photos Danni. I love flea markets, looks like I bought the vintage baby tub/planter from the same seller from one of your photo. I love their stuff.

  11. Love your site, Danni! The pictures are beautiful and your heart for others shines through in the details. Like the flea market shots, they're a good reminder to google similar stuff in my area. Believe it or not, my husband likes antique shops, etc, more than me :). Bless you, sister!
