Flea Hunting
Most of my weekends are dedicated to flea hunting. This time I didn’t end up with anything that really had my heart beating like hell. But I found these cute t-strap shoes that I payed $2 for that looks like never has been worn. I have several pairs of shoes in this style so I don’t really need them, but for that price I’ll buy anything…
This red little clutch I adore, but I ended up paying a lot more than I hoped for. That’s why the shortness of breath hasn’t kicked in like it should. It has three pockets, all with this really funky lining.
I also bought some yarn and some knitting needles, and I’m planning to knit a chain mail scarf I saw at Girlshop. I’m so busy these days that I have to wait and see if the project succeeds.
At last I found a jacket that belongs to a pair of pants I bought years ago. I never could afford the jacket then, but now I payed $3 for it. I don’t love is at much as I used to anymore, but hey, this must have been faith! I payed about the same for this black chinese dress also. I have wanted one of them since I was a kid, and even though I’m not the biggest fan of them at the moment, it felt kind of nice to finally have one.
All and all I made no super bargains… Or did I? I think I’m a little numb right now. Too busy to enjoy this the way I should. Anyway, I can’t wait for next weekend! Hope I find something really neat then.
GREAT finds!

It was quite a bargain! They had lots of similar shoes, new in boxes, all for the same price. But most of them were too small for me…

3 pounds for a jacket is Wow! Crazy finds.

Can’t wait for the weekend. Then my favorite flea market is, and it’s only open twice a year..!
