Thursday night flea market finds...

We spent 11 hours in the car this weekend for an out-of-state family wedding. Whew. That's a lot of time away from home on a precious weekend. But, the wedding was beautiful even though it seemed terribly sad to not have my mother in law with us. It's going to be a hard going through holidays without some of our loved ones.

Thursday night we hit up an outdoor flea market across from the Century Antiques warehouse district in downtown Grand Rapids.  They have one more flea market this Thursday evening.

This doll bed had seen better days, but I couldn't pass up the price ($2) as I was completely smitten with the decals.


It's missing one of the sides to the bed, so I decided to use it as storage for some of my favorite vintage sewing cards and puzzles.

It's also being used as a place to display my metal dollhouse.

I also picked up this toy musical radio.  It wasn't working, but Chris took it apart and now it plays music and the picture spins as the music plays.  It was also $2.

Last but not least, I fell in love with this pitcher/glass set.

I don't need any more pitchers or glasses, but I simply couldn't resist.

I might be a bit "missing-in-action" this week on your blogs.  It's the start of the new semester at my "big-girl" job.  Have a fun week ahead.  I'm already dreaming of Labor day weekend.
