[ savvy storage from flea market finds ]

NOW THAT SPRING is here, we can soon look forward to flea markets, antique fairs and yard sales - my favourite thing to do on a Saturday morning. I love finding interesting items and thinking of how they can be repurposed into a completely new function and thought these were some fun ideas from Better Homes & Gardens.

    I love the birdhouse mail organizer. Very creative idea. :) I love flea markets too, I just scored some more vintage travel cases to add to my collection at the BIG Pasadena Rosebowl Flea Market this past weekend. I even ventured out and got some vintage clothes (which involves a lot of digging through old not-so-good stuff to find some gems). I love it all though!

    Those little handles for keys and small things - a brilliant idea!
