Cooters Pond/Eastbrook Flea Market Excursion
Before Mom and I headed out to Eastbrook Flea Market on Saturday, we made a stop at Cooters Pond. Kind of a goofy name, but what a beautiful place to walk and think.
Kevin shot these photos (and the one above) there recently:
Here’s Mom and I on Saturday…checking out the view…
After a nice walk, we parted ways with Kevin and made our way to the Flea Market.
Here’s a photo of the first thing that made my heart flutter…
It was supposed to have made its way home with me, but I forgot to grab it on my way out the door. I did hide it though…so hopefully it’s still there and I can go get it sometime soon. 
This booth is always filled with such cheerful things…
I had to take a picture of this sign because I’ve had three different people quote this exact same line to me recently! (You know who you are!)
This cotton wreath is full of Southern charm…
I would have bought this scrumptious, chippy old shelf too, if it wasn’t $125!
I stopped in my tracks when I saw this old seltzer bottle. I would love to start a collection of these someday. I love the idea of displaying them in my Kitchen. They would really speak to my stainless steel appliances and vintage, metal locker baskets. (Oh, that’s right, I don’t have stainless steel appliances yet. Boo.) 
Not far from the Seltzer bottle I spied this lusciousness.
The dusty blue color of this next piece really appeals to me. The price tag read “$699″. Ouch. I think I could replicate this piece pretty easily though, so I put it in my idea file.
Here’s an example from the book “Decorating Junkmarket Style”:
Of course, you could always use it for what it was intended to be used as too…
I think it would be so fun to base an entire Laundry Room around this piece!
It was only $15, and I can already see it as a pillow or a seat cushion here at the Lettered Cottage.
I don’t remember how much this frame was, but it seems like it was priced a little high.
I love the simplicity of this sculptural, tin candlestick holder. I imagine seashells scattered on the base of it…
And another galvanized treasure, this “candlelier ” would look lovely in a shabby chic interior…
I’ll be back soon with photos of the rest of the goodies we saw, including what I took home with me!
