Finished up..





I wanted to show you a little update on my vintage sofa.  I picked it up a little while back but have not had a chance to take a full picture of it.  I love it- I went with the dark grey linen and added vintage wheels to bring it up a little bit for the room.  I love love it!

What do you think?  Have you had much success with reupholtsering vintage pieces?

Rose Bowl Flea Market...



We took a quick morning trip to the flea market on Sunday.  Always a good time!  I was excited to see some new faces and of course some good friends.  I fell in love with these vintage postal bags- so amazing!  He had a few left you can catch him here if you are interested... (U.S. Vintage Leather 562 400 6680)

  I love love these bags too with the linen outfit- yes please!  Brothers of Industry always a favorite!







Always a favorite- the vintage lines.. I resisted this time but only because I have so many that we are making up into pillows for everyone.

The Rusty Bucket was a new find for me- their display was really amazing and I picked up some great vintage frames for a little personal project  that I am working on.  I believe that their shop is located in Camarillo, Ca. 





I stopped by A Life of Vintage's booth early in the morning.. She had some really great pieces, love the dress forms and she had this huge antler that I loved.  It was nice to chat with her too as I found out that she reads the blog. (Fun!)  You can fine Sandee at Heather Fields Home and Garden in Westlake Village, Ca.  
 






There were 3 of these beauties... I waited to see the vendor but she was out so I had to move on- aren't they so lovely!

How about you did you hit the flea market this past weekend?  Did you get anything good?  I would love to know.

Also, don't miss your chance to enter our giveaway!

Santa Monica flea market


We spent the better part of the morning at the flea market on Sunday.  This was my first time to Santa Monica flea market and it was pretty successful as far as shopping.  It was a small group of vendors but there was a pretty good selection.  I found a lot of textiles and pillows which is always fine by me as those are a few of my favorite things!  We even had a few celebrity sitings which made for a fun morning.


This booth was from elements- he had some really great pieces and I had a chance to talk with him which was nice once we had circled the market twice.  I am looking forward to seeing him at Long Beach as he is expecting some pieces to come in from France in a week or so!



I was so close to buying this set of Lucite tables..  so fun!



I picked up a pillow with the embroidered dragons on it- love it!


 (please excuse the dumpsters)


I totally love this mix.  So fun for a girls room or beach house!

the pillows are from Indian Pink



We also discovered another small but really great flea market in Anaheim off of Lincoln and Lemon.  Some of the best finds of the day are from there!  Once I get a chance to go through all of my stuff I will have to share some things with you.

Collected office...




As the holiday weekend approaches it is all I can do to keep myself thinking about work..  This little office would be filled with too many distractions but it is pretty amazing!  I love the mix and match and all of the great vintage pieces.

What are your plans for the long weekend?

Vintage found...



This was a new discovery for me they have a shop of course!  Their space was beautiful and I grabbed a few vintage numbers for my jobs for next month.  Check them out at the shop by H. Bleu.


Always love the vintage textiles!



Fun industrial..


I spent most of my morning yesterday at the Long Beach flea market.  It was a beautiful day and I was able to find some great pieces.  It was nice to see friendly faces and some new vendors as well.   I picked up this union jack and some vintage textiles too!  I did not take pictures of them but I grabbed some great vintage pillows for my son's bedroom as he rejected the orange pillows I bought for him a little while back.. who knew he would care so much!

Spring flowers..




I love cut flowers and grouping them in different size vases adds a great layered effect.  Wouldn't this be a great dressing table with all of the natural light and little places to store your goodies!  

Check in with me on instagram for pics of the flea market on Sunday morning if you would like.

Vintage inspiration





Friday finally!  This weekend promises to be busy and fun on Sunday I will be going to the Long Beach flea market to pick up some accessories for the jobs I will be installing at the beginning of May.  It is always so fun to add some vintage pieces into spaces.

I am also hoping to get around to adding some items to our Vintage section of the shop for you also.  Things are finally becoming more manageable around here so I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will get to share everything with you.

What about you what do you have planned for the weekend?  Something wonderful I hope!
