Fab Flea Market Finds - Feb/March 2011

I went back to the flea market in February to try to find something for a women's retreat.  Instead, I picked up these little treasures.

Cheese plate - I know, I know.  You're probably thinking, a what?  Why do you need a special plate for cheese?  Especially when it has that strange fruit design on it.  Well, I'm a copy cat.  That's right, I said it.  Almost every ounce of creativity I have dumped into my home, has been someone else's.  I just copied it.  This is another one of those cases.  The folks over at Young House Love purchased a similar cheese plate and made it into a unique decorative item.  I plan on doing something similar.  :)

Glass cruet - I purchased this for the women's retreat, but I'm thinking it might just look lovely in a display somewhere after it's used.

Antique mirror - This antique mirror (with stand) will make a perfect addition to the bedroom furniture that we haven't purchased yet (but plan to purchase soon, a lovely sleigh bed suite).

In early March I went back with a specific project in mind - an antique mirror collage a la Dear Genevieve!  I found these two on this site called Wuslu - they have a deeply discounted deal every day on some home decor item and I happened to run across this one a few weeks ago.

With my best friend from high school, Josh Wadkins, in tow, I found these three lovelies!

I plan to arrange them on the wall in the main guest bedroom with a big "H" that I'm going to eventually get around to making.  I cannot believe that I'm going to have this project completed with a price tag under $100!

I also picked up this mirrored tray.  I'm not sure where I'll use it yet, but for only $25, I couldn't walk away.

I'll keep you posted on how that mirror wall turns out!
