There's nothing quite like the thrill of finding rare or exquisite items at a bargain. Not only do u find one of a kind pieces, but also that piece has a story to it: which flea market I got it from, the thrill of negotiating the price to get me to open my wallet, and how I came across that particular gem out of the plethora of things. Sometimes the seller even has a story to tell about that particular piece.
I recently went to a flea market and found a few pieces for myself...

Whether you collect certain things (china, cups and saucers, frames, vintage jewelry) or just like to
see what you can find at a flea market (garage sale, estate sale). Think outside of the box for some
other things such as... things you can incorporate with a gift to add a special touch, trinkets you can
display on a book shelf, or re-purposing.
What do you like to look for at flea markets?
