When Chairish asked me to do a post on my best find, I was flattered and terrified all at once.* I am TERRIBLE at picking favorite anythings. 95% of my furnishings are vintage/previously loved, so how do you even qualify such a thing? Is it the piece that has the most value in relation to what I paid? Is it the most rare? It’s like asking a parent to pick their favorite kid, you can’t – you love them all equally, yet uniquely.

Flea Market Friday
I have not posted a flea market trip in forever…I still post the pics on my Instagram when I go, but this is a long overdue post with some pics included that never made it to IG. I have not been able to go all Summer and it was making me sad and restless. So the day I finally get to go is a swampy, sweaty, humidity-fest with a heat index of over 100. But we did it. My girl LJ and I hit it like champs and suffered though with only our lemonades to soothe us.
Here’s what we saw. The photos aren’t great today – must be my sweaty hands slipping on the phone!
These crazy hanging side tables (with the red flower lamp to boot) had marble slabs that fit inside the brass frame-definitely craziest thing I saw today!
Have a great weekend!! It’s gonna be a hot one here!
Make + Model Spring Pop Up Shoppe
Just a reminder that Brandy at Make + Model has a Spring Pop Up Shoppe coming up May 4th!

Flea Market
Friday was rainy and a lot of vendors didn’t want to play, so I waited until Saturday to hit the flea. Here’s a recap of what I saw…. You can see all my other trips to the flea HERE.
I picked up this $10 lamp for a friend whose new house is going to get the Modfrugal zhush treatment. We are excited to get started as soon as the boxes are unpacked!
I really, REALLY loved and wanted these elves, but not for $60…..
I would have loved to pick up another one of these to make mine a pair, but these felt like flimsy knock-offs. They were overpriced too.
So what did I get? Well, after the flea I also had a Craigslist appointment, so I added to my finds with a waterfall console. I know our Craigslist can be a tough one and after Emily Henderson’s Nashville CL review, this felt like a much needed win!
But I had to paint the kitchen ceiling instead or rearranging the house when I got home…boo!
But the switcheroos have started and the house is in crazy flux. Lots to do today. Until next month!
