megan megas at home..



So I know I have been changing it up a little around here with more and more chatting... but sometimes I think change is a good thing! (I hope you do too).  Anyway, I am going to chat this up because I simply love it.  I love the graphic pillow on the white sofa and I love the split wall with grey and creamy paint.  I love the lack of accessories and things.  This is pretty amazing.  I know it is not my home because my dog would knock that vase off of that little stool in about 5 minutes but I still love it.





This picture makes me wish I had not sold off my dining head chairs... humm.  I think I saw some yesterday and now I really want them back!

Santa Monica flea market


We spent the better part of the morning at the flea market on Sunday.  This was my first time to Santa Monica flea market and it was pretty successful as far as shopping.  It was a small group of vendors but there was a pretty good selection.  I found a lot of textiles and pillows which is always fine by me as those are a few of my favorite things!  We even had a few celebrity sitings which made for a fun morning.


This booth was from elements- he had some really great pieces and I had a chance to talk with him which was nice once we had circled the market twice.  I am looking forward to seeing him at Long Beach as he is expecting some pieces to come in from France in a week or so!



I was so close to buying this set of Lucite tables..  so fun!



I picked up a pillow with the embroidered dragons on it- love it!


 (please excuse the dumpsters)


I totally love this mix.  So fun for a girls room or beach house!

the pillows are from Indian Pink



We also discovered another small but really great flea market in Anaheim off of Lincoln and Lemon.  Some of the best finds of the day are from there!  Once I get a chance to go through all of my stuff I will have to share some things with you.

Vintage found...



This was a new discovery for me they have a shop of course!  Their space was beautiful and I grabbed a few vintage numbers for my jobs for next month.  Check them out at the shop by H. Bleu.


Always love the vintage textiles!



Fun industrial..


I spent most of my morning yesterday at the Long Beach flea market.  It was a beautiful day and I was able to find some great pieces.  It was nice to see friendly faces and some new vendors as well.   I picked up this union jack and some vintage textiles too!  I did not take pictures of them but I grabbed some great vintage pillows for my son's bedroom as he rejected the orange pillows I bought for him a little while back.. who knew he would care so much!

Collected in Grey and Gold



It is so nice to realize that I am not the only one who needs to collect things like vintage textiles, and cameras and all kinds of other little goodies that are unnecessary to everyday life..

What about you what do you collect?  Have I asked this question before?  I need to know- it helps me feel more normal!

Rose Bowl Flea Market...




So we hit the Rosebowl flea market on Sunday morning, it was a beautiful day thank goodness!  I have been really happy with this flea market so far, it is full of great vendors and fantastic pieces!  I completely fell in love with these giant vintage posters and art pieces.  Each piece is mounted on a larger canvas for easy framing and storage.  I so wanted the Louis Vuitton piece but is a little bold for me.  I would be happy to point you in the direction of this vendor if only he had had a card for me.  He is at the Rosebowl for every show unless it is raining on the isle against the fence near the entry.





Some amazing stadium lighting just in case you needed some!  The boat too- there are some really interesting pieces to be found here.






I always love the vintage trophies and coral such a fun combination!





This vendor used some of our Lanet fabric for upholstery.  So so cute I thought!





Irons and Duck so fantastic as always!





I was so excited to see Robert again.  It has been months since I have bought any of his vintage textiles.  I got some great pieces!!  I love them for upholstery and pillows.  There are some vintage pieces that I bought that I would love to reproduce (if anyone has any info on having your own fabric made I would love it).





Fred was there from Grenouille,  I picked up this vintage ledger from him!  I cannot wait to frame it up for the wall!






 Of course there were some beautiful vintage clothing pieces, I just have not given into this idea yet.  My sister says I am crazy!



 I did get this super cute little hat though.  Fun and great for a little shade on my nose!!





We were completely taken by the pieces in Mark from Create a Vision Antiques.  My sister bought one of his converted lights for her living room.  Which looked so very cool when we put it in!  I am wishing I had one too!








My Bags were so full and so heavy!  I was ready to head out before we even walked the entire show.



We did not find any dining chairs for my sister but we did get her a fantastic little curved back settee, I cannot wait to see it reupholstered and in her space.  

I hope you are having a wonderful Monday so far!!
