Frankfurt Flea Market Field Trip

Hi! Happy Weekend!
Yesterday we went to check out the Frankfurt Flohmarkt (Flea market) which is along the river Main on Saturdays. We strolled between stalls packed with junk of all kinds as well as arts and crafts, jewellery and clothing (huge heaps of mixed items) and I think you'd have to rummage through ALOT of crap to find anything amazing. It was fun to wander through, though and see all of the random things people had to offer. I love the look of collections of objects, no matter what they are, so I took some photos of a few collections laid out on tables or on the muddy ground. 

My Mum used to make stained glass lampshades like that one!

 

I refrained from buying anything as I have to keep my belongings to a minimum- gotta weigh up between travelling vs. collecting pretty things! I actually just wrote a post about that over at Moorea's lovely blog- you can go see it here if you like! 

Hope you're having a fantastic weekend!!
