Roll on the next flea!

Just recovering from yesterdays first Dublin Flea Market...
Although I am probably recovereing from the hangover I had at yesterdays Flea Market, but didn't get a chance to!

Top Five Tips for the Market

1. Do not go out the night before...
2. Make a list of things you need to bring..scissors, bags, mirror,lights,(camera ...action!)
3. Buy a proper wardrobe rail, specifically one that does not collapse whilst people looking through your stall..
4. Networking with fellow stallees
5. Bring extra hangers,and reusable plastic bags


There was a wide range of stalls at the market, selling everything from household items, vintage kids clothing, chinese wall hangings, jewellery and the usual bits and bobs.

Would have been a nicer pic if I had smiled!!

All in all, it was a great day, and we got to meet some brilliant people.

Roll on the xmas flea!

Lady Dotty Heading to the Dublin Flea Market this Weekend!

"There was once a flea market where the Stephens Green Shopping Centre now stands....there was old mother redcaps off thomas st until it was bulldozed to the ground.....
Dublin used to have quite a few flea markets to rummage through on any given weekend until Grafton st and Henry st took over.

Introducing....the new******* DUBLIN FLEA MARKET********
Making its first appearence Nov 23rd in the Dublin Food Coop Building, Newmarket (off Cork st), featuring either fortnightly or monthly from then on.

There'll be musicians, food stalls, a music room, organic goods, vintage goods, bikes, records, art, trinkets, what nots, furniture, bric-a-brac and loads more.....all indoors"

Berlin : London: NY: Singapore : Dublin

Over the past few years,via college, holidays, and work I have done quite a bit of travelling. Anywhere I go, markets, second hand and vintage shops are the first place I seek out.

In Berlin, I love going to Colors Warehouse, and checking out the flea markets over teh weekend. At Colors, you pay per kilo for clothes, and at 13.99 a kilo, you can come away with some nice bits and pieces.

In Spain, everytime I go back, I think to myself...yes I do need that dark blue scarve, as my light blue scarve doesnt match such and such, and now have such a collection, my wardrobes bursting out onto the floor.

I have now made the decision to dispell some of these beautiful dresses and bits and pieces from my room and will be selling them at the first Dublin Flea Market, at the Dublin Food Coop Building, Newmarket (off Cork st) on November 23rd 11am-5pm.

More info to be up soon!xo
