Today I am taking part in Flea Market Style’s “I’m a Flea Marketeer Party.” We’re all sharing favorite Flea Market finds. I have lots of favorites, but today I’m sharing my 2 tiered wrought iron basket that I found in San Diego. I got it for a song and it is proving to be very versatile.
It sits in the center of our kitchen table. I love the lines of it so much that it is usually unadorned. But I am enjoying the opportunity to adorn it for the season!
This is one of my favorite finds. Join everyone at the party!

That looks fabulous, Claudia! I just love the orange against the distressed white… And I’m always peeking ‘beyond’ the focal point, so I am also in love with your oversized windows… That must be such a bright, cheerful room! I’ll bet you spend lots of time in it throughout the winter months!… Donna
