3 hours of rummaging, and these are all of my goodies in one neat shot.
I couldn't resist the wooden shoe forms, they were only $8 for the pair. No clue what I'm going to do with them, maybe I'll just pop them on a shelf. I've seen a lot of vintage suitcases, but I thought finding one in white was unusual. Great for extra storage and looks cute, in the cart it went.
The little mid century shelf was one of my favorite finds. The glass needs a bit of a clean but everything else was in excellent condition. The two orange and white pieces are retro salt and pepper shakers ($3). The 4 milk glasses were $10 for the set. I only noticed that one has a smaller base than the other 3 when I was setting them out to take this pic (clearly that one's the runt of the litter).
The white wavy light has to be my top flea market find. Ever. Yep, I said it. EVER! I couldn't believe it when I saw it. There was no price on it, so I went straight to Google to see how much it would cost new (not going to lie, I totally checked Ikea just to be sure it wasn't one of theirs). Turns out this was a Le Klint 172, a pretty iconic light designed by Poul Christiansen (thank you Wikipedia).
They came back with a price of $69 and I managed to talk them down to $50. I'm the worlds worst haggler, so was especially smug after getting the price down. I'm keeping everything crossed that it works.
I couldn't resist a quick whiz round Pinterest to find some other rooms the Le Klint had been used in. Standby for a Monday montage of pretty pictures.
Did you pick up any bargains this weekend?
