My Recent Haul From The Rose City Vintage Market!

Oh, how I’ve missed the Rose Bowl (or Lengthy Seaside, PCC, and so forth) – the flea market scene is within the prime 5 issues of what I beloved about dwelling in LA. So I’m thrilled that the Rose Metropolis Classic Market (with assist from Left Coast Revivals) is right here and so good!! The entire household went (however we divided up as a result of I promised Birdie a women’ day purchasing so she needed the boys to do their very own factor) and it was extremely enjoyable. Right here is the way it all went down:

The market this 12 months was huge, largely inside however with a fairly wholesome half exterior as effectively. It was an enormous mixture of tremendous curated cubicles (which had been very enjoyable and large respect to the distributors who clearly put in SO MUCH WORK). There have been some garments, jewellery and artwork, however it was largely a wide selection of various kinds of furnishings and decor – simply how I prefer it.

Laura of Left Coast Revivals helped assist it lots this 12 months (so far as I’m understanding) and introduced a number of distributors and folks out. Y’all, I’m loving this PDX classic scene. Such pretty individuals with great things which can be working so exhausting to supply and curate stunning issues. KUDOS to all these champs.

I bumped into a couple of pals, Max Humphrey was there signing his e book and Annie (Store Wilma) was there purchasing. She scored that dope stool that I needed to steal from her – she’ll probably be promoting it quickly. My goodness, the lighting on this joint was not my favourite!!!

This vendor had so many good rugs! I beloved this blue rug, however the measurement of it labored nowhere in my home so I needed to depart it. So unhappy since I’m so choosy about classic rugs. Hope it goes to the proper dwelling.

My Jumper | Madewell Blazer

That dope ceramic lamp was $2,600 which I assumed was very dangerous to convey to a flea market (it was superior and a brilliant well-known midcentury potter, however I really feel prefer it ought to be on 1stDibs for that value – don’t tease us!!). I virtually purchased that denim blazer, however I remembered I actually simply bought this one from Madewell that’s glorious. Ha.

Snagged this seascape and it’s already discovered a spot in my home! It’s from Dry Items Mercantile and people colours are unimaginable (and it was solely $60).

I additionally purchased a couple of items from this artwork vendor, Irving Avenue Buying and selling Co. I’m such an artwork hoarder and can by no means remorse getting an awesome piece!

I virtually purchased that bizarre portray/blended media over his proper shoulder however it was so costly ($750) and I couldn’t image it instantly in my home. I’ve thought of it A LOT since then and naturally, want I had snagged it. The pink/blue/white portray is AWESOME – pondering up the steps blended in with our household artwork wall.

I picked this ribbon candelabra (which I noticed after the truth that it’s from SIN Ceramics so you may get one too!) and gold lamp from RestateD_PDX – each are so goooooood.

Charlie discovered this skateboard lamp, grew to become OBSESSED with it and whereas it was overpriced IMHO ($220) the seller, Espresso and Snacks was so candy and had made so many issues into lamps in such a enjoyable means. Charlie doesn’t get as enthusiastic about adorning his room as Birdie does (she’s endlessly enthusiastic) so when he does actually actually reply to one thing I attempt to honor that (particularly if it’s classic and supporting a neighborhood classic maker). So sure, we purchased that, which then in fact set off Birdie to need one thing that was additionally $200 (I attempted to cover the worth, however they will “learn” now which can be a downside in instances like this). She instantly discovered a less-than-awesome tremendous gaudy lamp (appeared like Z Gallery from the ’90s) and virtually threw a large tantrum once I mentioned no. It was exhausting to elucidate and she or he felt it was so unfair, however she simply needed one thing and didn’t even care what it was. The whole lot is a factor!!!

Lastly, I bought an unique portray by Purl that I believe I might put most locations in my home – the colours are so good and I’m only a huge fan of his artistic spirit!

It was all so enjoyable and their subsequent present is Oct twenty first and twenty second. Beneath is a partial checklist of a number of the distributors if you wish to give them a comply with (and purchase some stuff). We ought to be getting the remainder of the checklist shortly! These are individuals doing the nice work, in a enterprise that’s virtually unattainable to scale as a result of the character of it’s all one in every of a sort – so let’s assist them 🙂
