French Flea Market recon – loads of pix

This last Saturday might have been one of the busiest flea markets we've had at Pomegranate since starting them about 10-11 years ago. We had more vendors than ever before (packed in everywhere), more goodies (almost overwhelming!), more customers (maybe 1,000 people... maybe more?). And, more business. All good signs. We were slammed inside the store, which made us happy, too. I took a bunch of shots before things started, then didn't come up for air until the very end of the market. A big thanks to all our fabulous vendors for bringing some wonderful flea market finds, and for making all the booths so attractive and fun. It was a blast, even if a little chilly and windy. But hey, it didn't rain did it? We did promise clear skies.

Next markets are July 7, August 4, August 25, and September 15, from 10-4. We always have a few core vendors who attend (and always bring bunches of new things!) and others who cycle in and out on various dates. Some are brand new to our markets, some are selling off collections that have never been seen before, some are clearing out garages of the best vintage stuff... There are always surprises, and so much to look at. Lots and lots of treasures.


Here are a bunch of pictures from the June 9 market (only a wee bit of what was there!). Go get your coffee. It's gonna take awhile...
