Every Sunday morning about five miles from my house...is where the magic happens. The earlier you get there the better. It's also a lot cooler. Controlling my purchasing power, I ride my bike. Ultimately, it just makes my bike ride just more difficult because I haven't let it stop me yet.
Here are a few things I found over the last couple weeks....
Lemonade jar $10.00
Flower pin in the "Flea Market Finds" photo $1.00
Glass cake stand $2.00
Pink tray...given to me by the vendor
A sweet gentleman who endured an entire conversation with me in Franglish...
a mixture of French and English
Earring $1.00
I won't be wearing them, but using the stones for crafts
Big wooden Quebec butter (beurre) box $10.00
Medium wooden Canadian cheese box $8.00
Small wooden Canadian cheese box $5.00
Do you heart flea markets?
Are you on the lookout for a certain item these days?

I don't have the patience to paw through flea market stuff, but I love that lemonade jug!
These are great finds! We don't have a flea market near us, so I never get to look for goodies like this.
I love the image of you riding your bike there.
I love the image of you riding home. Haha. Those boxes are great. They will always remind you of your years in Quebec.
Just found your blog...love it!! Im your newest follower :)

Hi Ann! Loving the new look on your blog! :)
Ooh, I love that Beurre canadien box! I like the idea of riding a bike to the flea market, but how in the world do you haul all if your goodies home? I guess it would slow the purchasing down a bit as you mentioned. I'll make sure my husband never hears about it;)
