dream finds

If you read my blog.....then you've heard me mention that Nebraska is not known for having flea markets. Being I was born and raised in California, every weekend was spent at some fantastic flea market....once we moved here.....basically....my flea market days were over. Now, I've come to find 2 flea markets here...yep that's right...a whopping 2! This weekend was the first one....and I have to say....I was beyond estatic to come home with these 2 finds....

an old pink farmtable!

now....I'm not usually a pink kinda girl....but this table is gorgeous....and you hardly ever see original pink painted farmtables....at least not here in corn country....and that may be why it's even more beautiful to me.

and here is my other find....a vintage french wine jug in it's original crate...can you believe this find! I almost fell over running to this thing. I had been looking for one forever....and I found it here....in the middle of cornstalks!


The sweet lady I bought this from said she found it full of wine in an old farmer's barn....she liked it...so he gave it to her free....the price she sold it to me.....$10.00.....gasp...right? If you look these up, they usually cost somewhere between $100 and $230 bucks....I paid $10.00....gasp...again!


These have to be 2 of my all-time favorite finds......eva!


Oh....and the pink farmtable wasn't even actually for sale....the guy had a bunch of stuff on it....treating her like she was some ugly ol' table. I saw a touch of pink under all the junk....and had to ask him if she was for sale....he said he wasn't planning on selling her....but that I could take her home with me for $60 bucks....I said....gett'er loaded.


Ahhhh....I love me a good flea market.....or even one that's not so good....but that you happen to find two of your dream finds.
