Trash to Treasure Tuesday—More Flea Market Finds

Wordy title, anyone? 

In keeping with our “decorating with flea market finds” theme of the past two weeks…

Oh, sorry, I forgot to tell you, we’re having a flea market theme for a couple of weeks.  I just decided, like five minutes ago.   

Sometimes I just have creative urges like that, and they must be nurtured. 

Anyway,   I went to My Home Ideas, JUST FOR YOU, and I typed “flea market” into the search box JUST FOR YOU. 

Yes, I went to all that trouble because I {HEART} you.  Here’s what I found.  (click here for the full list of search results)

1026161_kitchen-table_xlMatchy, matchy dining sets are so yesterday.  Gather a group of cast-offs and you’ve got perfect seating for a modern family. 

1026161_chicken-countertop_xlI love everything in this picture, but the ACTUAL flea market item is the chicken feeder turned spice rack.  I’m hoping some bleach and a scrub brush were involved.

1026161_striped-curtains_xlLove love love the seltzer bottle turned lamp.  Do you think that lampshade might be covered in chalkboard contact paper?     So cool that would be.

1026161_chalkboard_xlThis picture makes me hyperventilate.  A chalkboard in the dining room.  Swoon.  A candle chandy?  Double swoon.  Don’t even get me started on those chairs. 

1026161_bathroom-sinks_xlLook at these washstands.  They were originally made for a hospital.  Again, pass the bleach please.  How perfect for a cabin.  Aaahhh, another reason to wish I had a cabin.

There you go.  More flea market inspiration.  You’re welcome.  Now link up those projects!

  2. Hi Kimm,

    Reinvented. My entry is a bit unorthodox. It is somewhat of a personal reinvention.

    My heartfelt wish is anyone who is in need of hope, inspiration or reinvention will be blessed.

    Thank you for hosting a great party.

  4. I love that chicken feeder spice rack. I agree...hoping some serious bleach or something was involved and won't be knocking on any farmers doors to get one, but love the idea.
