Get Ready, Get Set... French Flea Market Saturday



The skies are clearing (fingers crossed) just in time for our first French Flea Market of the summer. Tomorrow, Saturday June 6 from 10-4, in the gardens at Pomegranate. We have more than 20 hand-picked vendors (our largest market ever!) coming in with their wares. It's fun, funky and full of surprises. You'll find antiques, vintage, retro and hip handcrafted goods, from linens and jewelry to furniture, garden art, and who knows what... it's all good, and all at good prices! By the way, on purchases over $100, you can use your credit card via Pomegranate's service... but suggest you raid the cookie jar and tuck some cash into your pockets, because you will find something you must have!

The market opens at 10am, but you might want to arrive a wee bit early for best pick. Then you could zoom over to McKay's Cottage (within walking distance) for a hearty brunch. And then come back to see what new things the vendors have put out. As the day goes on, many of them replenish their booths, so it's worth a few visits. The shop is full of wonderful new things, too, so put on your garden hat and make sure to clear a little time for the most fun shopping event of the season! The market ends at 4pm, but our shop is open until 5:30.

See photos of past flea markets on our website: pomegranate-home.com (go to the "Events" section). If you miss this one, don't worry, mes amis, because we have two more scheduled for Saturday, July 18 and Saturday, August 22. We are at 120 NE River Mall Avenue, just off 3rd Street, across from the north end of Macy's. Look for the banner atop our sign near Ihop. See you tomorrow!
