And the ladies of Rock ´n Hair just told me they are going, too and sell the book there. If you buy a book and see me there I´ll happily sign my cover for you ;-) (or if you have it and bring it for that matter). If anyone wants to meet up for some shopping that is ev

en better! So feel free to contact me and we hunt treasures together!!!!! :-) If you wanna shop with me and John meet me at 11:00 at the market!

So:

Let´s call it the "inofficial Sari Promo-Tour" :-) Stop by - say Hi! Damn will I have a hard and FUN weekend!

And I bet you´d LOVE to know what I got at the fleamarket...

the day in pictures...

Hello everyone,

today started shitty because the fleamarket I originally planned to go to was cancelled. As I was halfway to Neuss anyway I decided to go to Gare du Neuss Fleamarket instead. I bought a golden frame. As my non FB friends don´t know: I intend to move from my tiny 30 squaremeter apartment to incredible 75 squaremeters, so Iam on the hunt for new vintage stuff to fill it with...
Yay I go to Gare du Neuss!
After the fleamarket I went to Hannis 60er Jahre Cafe and had toast with egg, a philadelphia cake and a vanilla milkshake.
The cafe is indeed lovely with a 50s/60s interieur. If I´d open a cafe it would look just like it! As I plan to move to Neuss this would be pretty much neighborhood. I will have breakfast there quiet often than!

Fleamarket Shopper!

Hi everybody!

There are days that can´t get ruined! Today is such a day!!!

The sun was shining and I was up early so I decided to go to a fleamarket! I haven´t done that for a a year and I haven´t been to the one I went to for at least 2 years (Aachener Platz, Düsseldorf), so I was exited! It started off bad. Why is it that there are so many stalls selling obviously none flea-market stuff?! Like.... light bulbs. Or faked designer perfumes? I already thought "Oh no, it is even WORSE than it used to be 2 years ago" and was mentally prepared that I will go home the way I came - with nothing. But than it changed after I walkes past those for the first 2 looooong rows and I stumbled over one great bargain after the other!!!

Record: 1 € (will make great prop for a 50s shoot I think!!! And later a nice decoration for our wall!!!)

Bamboo-Fruitbasket: 1€ (Finally a place for John to put his fruits)

Fan: 1,50 €

Brooches: 1 € each!!!

Brooches as a close up. And Fan Details. It has strawberries on it!!!!

When I saw this Puppy I thought "Oh man that must be expensive! It is in such a good condition!" And it is rather big, too. It was.....

12 €! And it is by "Hermann Teddy". This dog is vintage and in mint condition, complete with original collar and original manufacturers tag!!! MUST DO A PHOTOSHOOT WITH IT!

Original chinese sun umbrella made of red fabric with blue accents. 3€!

Makes a total of 20,50€ (That is 26$) + 2,50 for the yummy crepes with sugar and cinnemon I ate = totally enjoyable morning/noon.
