Decorate your Room with Flea Market Finds

By Mercie Hallow

Flea Market is a place where you can find almost anything. Designers who follow a Shabby Chic design theme usually scour these places to find the best pieces that could go well with her interior without sacrificing the budget. They are creative enough to scour for unique pieces and finds that could leave them to create a beautiful and fabulous space without spending for more.

Flea markets are also a venue where used up and second hand furniture pieces can be purchased and enhanced by adding another layer of fresh paint and improving the hardware, and adding a few new embellishments. Funky and chic wall paper can be wrapped on a piece of wood purchased from a flea market that should add character to a bedroom when used as a headboard. Add flair and change the look of an old armoire by exchanging the knobs to hand painted wooden knobs.

An old piece of door can serve as a charming decorative piece in a living room, simply coat with another layer of fresh paint or in this case wood stain. The door can be an excellent conversational piece and a good focal point when it is simply leaned on a living room wall. The natural wood color from the stain can blend well to the Asian theme youve been planning for your home. Accent with wicker furniture, lamps and other small accessories from the flea market and you can have a redecorated room with fewer expenses.

Spring can make a good concept for your bedroom. Pretty floral fabrics from flea market that had otherwise been labeled as outdated can make a charming comeback in your bed sheets. Accent it with a small reading chair upholstered with gauzy floral fabric and citrus colored pillows. Adorn your night table with fresh spring time flowers and crisp white translucent curtains for your windows. What a refreshing room to wake up with indeed!

At the Holiday Flea Market at Torns River, New Jersey, exciting finds are to be seen that can add function and flair to your home!
