flea market finds

we started hitting the flee market scene this summer. we have a few things in mind when we are looking but we just enjoying taking the dog and looking for the next hidden gem.


the first find was an adirondack rocker bench, hand made from st. louis, mo. we thought it would be perfect for the sunroom. not sure if it is going to work or not yet but it will make either make the perfect bench or the best gift for our friends with the lake house. needs very little work. just need to clean it and then seal it with a clear coat. we are planning on putting a linen seat cushion on it as well.

not a month later, michele stumbled upon a great antique while walking the dog. no work needed and perfect for the guest room table. the brass mirror on the wall was found in our basement storage unit when we moved in. we now joke that the guest room is the free room as the 3 main peices were either found, given to us (my great grandparents brass bed), or purchased from the neighbor down the street for almost nothing.
