Warm Enough to Flea Market!

 Yay!!! It is finally warm enough to go out to the Flea Market for a day! It has been way to long. The past few weeks have been far too cold. Then before that, for at least a month before that, it seemed it picked all the weekends to rain. I enjoy the rain, especially when my garden is growing, but I don't like it when it always comes on flea market days. Guess no matter what the weather does, we are going to find something to complain that it doesn't match up with.

I'm not sure which I am more excited about, getting to finally set up, or getting to go walk around the other vendors a bit and see what bargains they have that I can't live without! I remember last time I was there, I saw several things I was wishing I could get, and since then, I have realized that some of the things I saw but didn't look at too closely, I have since thought of something I needed them for.

One woman had some wigs for sale. I looked at them, even played around with one, but thought. "I certainly don't need one of those!" But then, one of my girls had me make her a headband. Now she thinks I could sell a lot of them. I was trying to figure out what I could display them on. I have seen, at our local hobby shop, that they have those cheap, styrofoam heads that you can display things on. Those things look creepy! Then I remembered the wigs and thought that one of them might make one of those cheap white heads look a lot better. Would be even better if I could find something round, tomorrow, that is unique and head-size, that I could use! What do you think I should look for that might work?

Are you going flea marketing this weekend? or garage or yard sale shopping? or checking out the thrift stores? Will you be looking for anything in particular or will you be just enjoying the day as you randomly look around and browse? I would love to hear about your flea marketing plans for the weekend. Feel free to tell us in the comments.

HAPPY FLEA MARKETING!!!

WINDY BUT BEAUTIFUL!

It may have been a terribly windy start to the day, but it sure was gorgeous!! And tomorrow (Saturday) is looking to be even better!

All of us here at Okay Flea Market are as anxious to get out in the warm, bright sunshine and set up, as you  are to get out and walk around shopping in some beautiful weather. And this looks like the weekend for it! Looks like a great stretch of beautiful weather, now, but this time of year, you never know when Winter will suddenly return. So get out and enjoy this nice weather with us while you can.

And due to the weather, it has been several weeks since we were able to open. So you can just imagine that our excited venders will celebrate with some exceptionally great sales that you won't want to miss! On top of that, it is time for us to start getting out our spring items and since we don't like packing away our winter stuff, that will also add to the deep, mark down bargains you will find this weekend at Okay Flea Market!

So come on out and see us this weekend, enjoy some fresh air, warm sunshine, and catch some excellent bargains!

And don't forget, our Annual Spring Fling is just around the corner in May! Watch for even more details on this event to be posted soon!

Happy Valentine's Day and have a super terrific weekend! Hope to see you here!

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND!!!

FINALLY . . . . a BEAUTIFUL Weekend!!!! 

There may be a slight nip to the air today, but overall, it will be a beautiful day! And tomorrow is forecast to be even more gorgeous!!!

A few of our regular vendors will be out and open today. Some; however, will unfortunately still be out with the flu. But even with just a few of us open, we would love to see you come on out and stop in! Remember, it just takes one vendor open with just that right 'one treasure' to make your trip worth while.

And if you are looking for a place to set up, we would love for you to come set up with us!! The set-up price can't be beat, the weather is beautiful, and the company is fantastic!

So, whether you are setting up or shopping, come on out this weekend and enjoy some much needed fresh air and sunshine! It'll do your body good!

SEE YOU THERE!!
