My flea market finds today...

I took a quick trip to the Alemany Flea Market early this morning and found some wonderful items waiting to be repurposed into new little story pieces of jewelry ~ Photobucket A beautiful vintage carved rosary, spiritual medals ~

LOVE the French one! Photobucket


An awesome Victorian Chatelaine Coin Purse...German? Photobucket

Vintage metal chain belt, BLING! Photobucket

Large silver filigree flower brooch, Art Nouveau and Deco Findings ~ Vintage Repousse Crown!
Can you guess what the four items are in the second photo? I gazed upon these vintage aluminum chunky pieces and I knew how I would use them in a future project. :)


I love these fork pendants! Photobucket


Chunky antique brass belt...just what I was looking for!

Swoon ~ Mother of Pearl Choker and another pearl collar to add to my growing collection ~ Flea Market finds

The thrill of the hunt and the next awesome find waiting to be discovered is what it's all about!

    Hi Deb
    WOW you are a true romantic in the bling dept. What a score on your flea market finds. I forgot to look at where you live, must be CA. or something like it.
    No pretties like that here in Ont. Canada where I live.
    Your artistic talent is truly breath taking Deb.
    Just lovely pieces.
    I see you adopt fur babies? My passion.
    Thanks for popping over to my little world.
    It's a pleasure to meet you.
    Love Claudette
