Come Flea With Us Thanks YOU...

Day 2 of the "Come Flea With Us" flea market was great and even the sporadic bursts of rain didn't deter people from buying!!

We are trying to get the word out so if any of you purchased items and are willing share pictures here of how you incorporated them into your spaces, we would like to see them!!

We are also currently in the process of determining what pictures to post and will try to do that sooner rather than later. All the fantastic support and positive feedback we are getting is appreciated!!!

Now it is time for we 5 Flears to get some much needed reset before hitting the ground running on Monday morning to prepare wares for the next event on June 10th and 11th...

Day 1 Of Our Season Opener a HUGE Success!

Who says that Friday the 13th is full of superstition and cannot be a day of enjoyment? We sure don't!! As the "Come Flea With Us" Proprietors, we would like to thank ALL of our wonderful, amazing shoppers for making today a huge success for season opener!! We appreciate the support and the energy you bring to our events!!

We welcomed returning shoppers from last season and we made new friends as well. The day was picture perfect and sunny and the items we offered our customers were the icing on the cake!!

The pictures represent what we had to start with and we could hardly contain our excitement as our items were snatched up and whisked off to new homes. We are planning on bringing new stock on Saturday and cannot wait to see what day 2 brings!!

Hope to see you there bright and early for the best picks! And, if you were there on day 1, you will definitely want to come back to day 2 to see what is new!!

Mark your calendars! It's official....May 13th and 14th are the opening dates for the monthly "Come Flea With Us" Flea Market!

The Porch on Main in Springville will be our venue again this year, something we are very excited about!

We fleaers have been gathering and creating some fantastic one-of-a-kind items for this new season--painted furniture, retro furniture, vintage garden items, linens, collectibles, dishes, re-invented planted items...the list goes on and on. We promise you will not be disappointed in the items or their below retail prices!
 

 

 Stay tuned. If you are lucky, we may even offer you more sneak previews of some more items that will be for sale...

...from trash to treasure...

I have been very busy getting items ready to sell for the upcoming flea markets that start this Spring.

One of the things that I enjoy most is coming across something that others see as being worthless and destined for the donation and/or garbage pile. Visualizing in my head and knowing exactly what its potential is I take it, re-purpose or refurbish it and MOST of the time that trash item becomes a treasure....either for me or for someone that purchases it.

Here are a few more items that I have transformed but have long since been placed in new homes of friends or flea market buyers.  I will have TONS of  items for sale again this season and resolve to do a better job at taking the "rescued and pre-transformation" pictures.... 

Make it a GREAT day!

Simple things for a simple man...

As I have been preparing items for the 2011 season opening of our Flea Market that is rapidly approaching,  I look forward with much anticipation to offering great re-purposed/re-furbished goods for your home & garden!

Often during the creative process, I am reminded that I enjoy simple, old things that have had a previous life prior to coming into my possession to be transformed or merely appreciated.  Maybe it is because I am a simple man in a lot of ways or that I was probably born with an old pioneer type soul.

One of the simple things that makes me stop and think on a regular basis is a vintage farm plow. I acquired it a couple of summers ago and although it has long since been retired from its original purpose, it is now part of the landscape in my backyard:

Although it is simple in form and function, the thought came to me that someone–maybe a father like me, used to depend on it to plow his fields in preparation for the planting of a garden for his little family. It probably was a lot of work yet a necessary implement needed to yield a beneficial harvest. I am certain that he was grateful that someone had invented and manufactured this plow to assist him in his efforts to be a good Provider...

PONDER What invention are you glad you have in your life?
