Tennessee Tuesdays

Nashville Flea Market

The flea market is held at the Tennessee State Fairgrounds the 4th weekend of every month and is a treasure trove for bargain hunters. Cousin Betty and I had a beautiful sunny day Friday to walk and hunt for those bargains. Even better they had free parking for the day. Here is some of what we seen:

desks for kids

beautiful rockers

quilts and embroidery work galore

wonderful hand painted trunks

pecans, pecans and more pecans

beautiful saddles

lobsters

and crows

old chandeliers

lots and lots of metal signs

and our loot

we each got a metal wreath and Cousin Betty also bought a basket and baby stroller

I went back with Mom on Saturday and we picked up a couple more of the rusted metal wreaths. They are marvelous, perfect to start decorating for Christmas. Now the only question is which one do we keep.

Cousin Betty also brought with her Uncle Richard and Aunt Mary. We enjoyed your visit so much and had such a great time while you were here.

Tea Time Tuesdays

I am joining Kate for Tea Time Tuesdays

My first tea/coffee set. When Dillard's bought out our local Cain Sloan stores years ago they closed the downtown Nashville store and I picked this brass set up on clearance. My lucky day.

Poppy - Peppertree Tabletops. My birthday present to me last year from TJ Maxx. The poppies are such a beautiful bright cheery red. The silver tray was found at an antique store going out of business.

My clearance specials from TJ Maxx and Marshall's. The teapot, platter and cups/saucers are not marked other than fine porcelain. The sugar bowl, creamer and small bowl are Giselle from Waterford from Home Goods. I caught them on clearance and also picked up a couple of salad plates and bowl.
