Who loves shopping flea markets?

You all know that I do, even though my house won’t hold anything else right now, it’s still fun to look and browse.  I’ve got a new book from BHG to share with you today and one of my lucky readers gets a chance to own one too.  I have always enjoyed bringing home the vintage pieces to use at my house and you’ll always find older treasures in my decorating arsenal.  I just can’t imagine not decorating with older things at my house, with a mix of old and new.  It always gives you a chance to discover a new treasure and bring it home to fill in the spots around a house.

Flea Market Style:  Fresh Ideas for your Vintage Finds and newly published from one of our fave magazines, Better Homes and Gardens.  It shares the ultimate guide for scoring, saving, and integrating unique pieces into your home that reflects your unique style and look.  It’s filled with hundred’s of photos showing ideas for putting together and integrating flea-market finds into an overall scheme that is thrifty, recycling friendly, and one of a kind.

I love these inspiring photos of rooms around the house, all spruced up with vintage finds.

This kitchen looks so homey and inviting, doesn’t it?

There’s definitely a lot of chippy pieces in decorating with vintage.

Unique idea using urns for a table base.

The book lists some of the best flea markets to attend across the country, as well as all different style ideas, such as Boho, Cottage, Country, Romantic, and Modern. There’s also projects that you can do to use in your home.  Lots and lots of fun pics to look at, so I think you’d enjoy this book if you love to shop flea markets!

    I love mixing the old, vintage pieces for the uniqueness they add to our home. No “cookie cutter” looks for us! Plus, I am a renew, reuse, recycle gal who likes to be conservative of our environment. Vintage pieces are also (usually) higher quality!

    I just love finding unique pieces. Or pieces I can make my own. I also love knowing something I own has a story to tell!

    I like the unique pieces that can be found. I also enjoy reminiscing about pieces that I see from my childhood.

    I love buying old furniture, the quality is so much better. Something beautiful from a garage sale is so much better than a new one. I guess because it has a story for and about me.
    But I do not love the overly chippy stuff, I want to take it out into the back yard with a brillo pad, and the hose. I am not a clean freak but it can look so dirty. Haha!! To each their own!!

    I love decorating with vintage finds that bring back memories of my childhood. Especially things that remind me of my mother and grandmother’s. And the shopping/hunt is so fun. And auctions….love love now love the online auctions so fun. Have gotten some great buys. Got a large tobacco tray in really good shape for $45.00 a couple of years ago. Since then have seen on 4 magazine covers. Yes me ❤❤

    I love vintage and thrifted items because they’re so different from what everyone else has bought from a furniture store. Not only that, they’re mostly reasonably priced. That book looks fabulous!

    I love vintage finds that match my decor and make me feel happy! I recently discovered a lovely English creamer at a local antique bard and I couldn’t resist bringing it home. When I pour my breakfast milk from it, I imagine the other people that have loved and used this creamer before me.

    I love using things that have a “story” I can share with people, which usually comes from items that have stayed in the family and been passed down from generation to generation.

    I love a mix of new and vintage. It seems to balance the room and add interesting memories and discussion. The new seems cleaner which I love, but it’s kind of boring without the vintage for depth and character. Cheryl Ann

    To me, vintage finds bring a house to life and fill it with a history. Each piece tells a story. And of course, the hunt for the perfect vintage find is always fun. There’s something so comfy and comforting about a vintage home. New is nice, vintage is nicer! 🙂

    I love taking something that is no longer worth much & with a little elbow grease & paint turning it into something that is beautiful again.

    My favorite thing about decorating with found items is finding my unique style instead of having cookie cutter decor.

    Decorating with vintage makes everything so comfortable and homey. It’s amazing what people throw away, if you keep an eye out you can find things for free. I love rusty, old wood pieces and junk that can be recycled into something nice. I saw this written one time about people throwing stuff away…..There Is No Away!

    I enjoy vintage finds because of the history they have. I love to think about who the people were that had them before. Did they keep it inside, or outside, did he have children that used it?
    Thanks for the giveaway
