another flea market find

this another find from the Ocean Grove flea market last weekend. i picked it up because of the awesome drawers. it had a handpainted rooster on the top, which was cute, but not my style, so i sanded it off. the drawers are the absolute best. i was able to combine things i had in various containers all into one spot.

these are the two dolls in the picture above (far right bottom corner). i think the one doll with the embroderied skirt is so pretty. they are also a flea market find.

Ocean Grove flea market

I love to go to this flea market. it is held twice a year. unfortunately the last two times they had it, it rained, so it wasn't all that good. but today was beautiful and the place was crazy! i went with Jane and her daughter, Claudia. they drove here yesterday and spent the night. we stayed in the trailer and it was great fun. we had a lovely dinner in Asbury Park.
this morning, we got to the flea market about 8:00am and right off the bat, i spied this home made cupboard. SOLD - to me! the guy told me he could have sold it 10 times over with all the expressed interest in it. i've already got it on the back porch and accessorized, so tomorrow, i'll snap a photo of it - in it's new home. i also bought a cool bust to hang necklaces on, a tattered dress form, 2 black shutters with moon cutouts, a home made potting bench and 2 bird houses. it was great fun. we got lots of sun, walked around forever and spent too much money.
