How gorgeous are these patterns? There was so many pages of them and I wanted them all but wall space in my apartment is growing scarce.
In this booth they had the sweetest old cursive practice books. These were so carefully done, and this one was actually framed.
A + GOOD JOB! Btw, it says "Eat to live, do not live to eat."

After taking a fencing class with the US Olympic Fencing team a few weeks ago, my bf is a master fencer! I should have gotten him one of these antique fencing masks.
Here is super fun lantern that my friend found. That would be a great accessory on a window sill, coffee table, or bookcase.
The best part was that we found what we were looking for! My friend needed a mirror for the living room of her apartment and wanted something round or oval with an interesting rim. This one was just taken from a home the day before and my friend scored it for $60! I'm obsessed with the rope detail on the rim.

Looks like you found great things (and plenty to amuse). Would love to frame pages from cursive practice book or the prints above it. Mirror looks great-that strong round shape always reminds me of a porthole, so stately & elegant.
I have never been to a flea market, and the only antique store I've ever been to scared me so much (as a child) that I was completely turned off to them. I guess I'll need to muster up the courage to go back. Love the lantern & botanical prints!
I'm afraid to ask: what happened at the antique shop? I've always had a good time, and every time I visit, I'm always amazed by what I find.

too bad we didn't catch a photo of the eccentric individuals who we saw along the way...mom's SUCH a fan of the mirror!
What a fun time, I love going to antique stores and just poking around to see what treasures can be found. Love the mirror your friend got too!
Thanks guys!
Miss Jessica--I'm more and more happy about that mirror. Let's take another trip when the weather is better, yes?

Thanks for the show & tell :) And what the heck is that book all about?!?
Down Pillow--OMG I have no idea! I certainly didn't buy it but couldn't resist showing all of you...
