pickin!

We went picking for a few hours and brought home some goodies. Here are a few snapshots from our trip. Despite the boiling temperatures, we were able to score some pretty good finds! We didn't take everything home with us that we saw, we wish we could have. 
Picking done at Yankee Flea Market, Inc.
Open Tuesday-Sunday
1311 Park Street (route 20)
Palmer, MA 01069
#413-283-4910
minutes from the MA Pike (take exit 8)

Can't you just picture the old New England kitchens these once stood in? These spice tins remind us of some good ol' home cooking. 
We use vintage thermoses for lamps. If you are interested in one of ours, please contact us!


and yes, we are the Flea Circus, but clowns scare us at times! 
See that vintage BINGO game under the clown? That came home with us! A BIG score!
Check out the patina on this vintage boxing game!

These items went home with me, Aly. Can you tell I'm a teacher? A plaid lunch box, old math books and a table runner just jumped right into my basket. I love the robin's egg blue color in the table runner. Oh, and that cute little elephant below went home with me too! Something about the yellow stole my heart.

Oh, yes and this sign was the best!

Some items found we did not post yet, but will be revamped into some new items that we will share and will be for sale at Crompton Collective and at our 
Fall Open Studio, so stay tuned!

Best!
The Traveling Circus Gals,
Aly and Jenn

a glimpse into aly's home. part 1. the kitchen

We thought that we'd share what our homes look like. We are always revamping, but here is Aly's kitchen. Nothing fancy, or glam, just a small kitchen with good flea market finds, good eats and good company! What else could you ask for? Enjoy!

Sweet Land of Liberty and Cookouts!

 We thought we would share a sampling of some of our favorite red, white and blue cookout decor! All photos we give tremendously huge credit to Sara of Home and Garden Designs.
