Flea Market Finds: Rose Bowl

Sometimes (okay, usually) you see those things at the flea market that leave you feeling inspired.

You’ve already seen my suitcase haul from Sunday, but here are a few of the other things I was loving this weekend:

Vintage Baseball Gloves and Masks
These masks and gloves would be awesome in a boy’s room, in a playroom, or even as a display in a library.
I loved this tiny settee. It would look awesome with a little rehabbing. I would love it spray-painted black and reupholstered in a pretty navy or grey linen.

This type of chair isn't normally my style, but the fabric on this collection was so pretty, I considered buying one. I settled on ordering one of these pretty striped linen pillows, which is much more in line with my style (and the style of my home.)

That being said, consider before buying if something is very different than what you’d normally choose. Yes, we all evolve in what we like. So if you like something, but aren’t really sure, walk away. Give yourself some time to consider if you were caught up in the emotions of the moment or if you truly love it and want to start creating a new look. Here,  I was caught up in the moment of loving the fabric.

I love breathing new life into furniture on its last leg! I went to UC Berkeley for undergrad and am currently a graduate student in the Communication department at Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA. I started getting into collecting vintage things while I was in college at Berkeley. It all started with vintage designer samples, and hunts for "new" things led me to more and more stores that carried vintage crystal and china (loving this stuff is in my DNA-- I'm southern!) Looking for china led me to stores and markets that also carried furniture. As a college student, I couldn't afford ANY vintage pieces that were high quality, so I started buying stuff and fixing it up. How did I learn? Trial and (lots of) error. This isn't my first venture into the blog-o-sphere. After undergrad, I modeled and wrote the blog The Model Who Eats in order to document the foods I loved during my travels and promote a healthy lifestyle. I love rehabbing pieces for the spaces I design. Check me out on Instagram @chair_candy and @RoadsideRehab
