Well, it's official! Jaithan and I had our very first shopping trip to the New York City flea market yesterday, and we couldn't have asked for a nicer group of people! For everyone who joined us, it was a day of learning, finding great things and just having fun—all in the company of new friends. I'm so excited to share with you everyone's finds and all the great stories that went along with them, so be sure to check back tomorrow for the full post!

























love the fabulous details in your post! Wow awesome job... :-)

Hi Eddie! I must say that I am addicted to your blog! I think my husband thinks I'm having an affair as I rush to the computer on a daily basis to check out what's new and I'm always muttering "Eddie this...." and "Eddie that...." I wish I was remotely near you to join your expeditions but alas I live WAY too far away in Australia. If you're ever coming down under I would love trot along behind you on your adventures and pick up a few tips from the master! Keep up the fantastic work! Cindy :)

You know Eddie, I travel thru New England for my job and EVERY DAY after I am through, I type "Antiques" into my GPS and go to the first shop closest to me. I absolutely love my finds. You help me to discover new things and look at objects and their potential. I would LOVE to join you someday in an antique excursion!!!! Cant wait to read the post tomorrow!!!

Is it weird to be a little jealous that I couldn't go? Ha ha ha....

If I only lived closer, I would have loved to go with. What a treat!
