Flea day
Over the weekend, I went to the Alamo Square Flea Market.  I've been to a few flea markets (i'm personally more of a thrift shopper myself) and most of them around here are way overpriced and I usually end up leaving empty-handed.  Not this time, though!  This flea market was full of vintage goodies and knick knacks... all at really really good prices.  Which made me really really happy.  There was SO MUCH stuff to sort through it was pretty overwhelming, but in a good way.  Sorta like when you go to The Container Store and get the sudden urge to clean, but of course 100x better. 

I couldn't stay as long as I wanted (which is probably all the better for my wallet), but I still ended up leaving with two vintage chairs and a backpack, which I will blog about soon.
