Well, I've found a new flea market to shop. On the fourth Sunday every month is the year old Topanga Vintage Market in the parking lot of the Promenade Mall in Woodland Hills, CA. There were many vendors I had never seen before, and some I had purchased from at other markets. Here are some of my favorites of the day.
The trunk full of old frames was from
Porthole Vintage, who also happens to have an Etsy shop. You can see more of their items
here.
Vintage Cottage Finds
offered all sorts of vintage crafting goodies and decor like the velvet
ribbon and sparkly Christmas trees in delicious pastel colors. I
purchase vintage wallpaper sheets to use in my collages. They also have
an Etsy shop which you can find
here.
I loved these Kantha quilts from
Kismet. These quilts are made from vintage textiles in India using Fair Trade. They were all so colorful and the backs were made from completely different, coordinating fabric. After much comparing and debating, I finally chose one (second photo). The back uses fabric with the same orange combined with pink. You can find out more about Kismet
here.
This booth had lots of repurposed garden-themed items all beautifully displayed- unfortunately they don't seem to have a website.
Ooh, I love those little trees! Topanga sounds a lot closer than the Rose Bowl too. :-) Good find.
