The Park Slope Flea Market
Here's one of the reasons I love Park Slope: There is a centrally located flea market on the weekends. Since it's on the way to the co-op, I walk through it nearly every reasonably-warm weekend. There are brooches and table runners and hats, there are clothes and collectible plates and old cameras, and there is furniture. Last week, I found a vintage tablecloth for $12. The desk my computer is sitting on came from the market. Derek found a bedside table. It's a gold mine.
It's also a mini-museum of twentieth century kitsch, and I always feel as if I could spend hours just looking at the stuff. It's very photo-friendly. I felt a bit nervous about taking pictures there, but I got a couple of good shots. I'll have to find the courage to take a few more next time.
