What a fun morning in Oak Bluffs yesterday! We stopped at the annual flea market held at the Tabernacle of the Martha's Vineyard Campmeeting Association. For the sale, folks who live within the association are permitted to set up tables all around the Tabernacle's perimeter.
At last year's market, I met the nicest antique dealer named Claire who is from Massachusetts. She had a wonderful array of items and I purchased quite a few things from her that sold quickly in my Etsy shop. I was so happy to see her at this year's flea market. Once again, I bought some great things from her.
Here is a peek at what I found. A large stash of lovely bark cloth . . .
A terrific selection of vintage pamphlets and books . . .
And several cheerful floral tablecloths and tea towels.
Listing these items in my Etsy shop is sure to keep my busy in the coming weeks.

I LOVE the postcard, where did you find it..I've been collecting vintage MV postcards and would love to find one from OB, my favorite town.
I agree that you're never too old to ride the Flying Horses... I have been for over 60 years and get almost as much of a thrill as I did as a kid.
I keep missing the flea market, drat.

Hi Joan,
I found the wonderful postcard at the baseball card store on Circuit Ave. in O.B. over 15 years ago!
