Avenue A flea market is back!

Yay! The charm and junk of the East Village is back! Just a couple weekends ago, the 11th street church parking lot opened it's chain link fence after a 5 year hiatus. The avenue finally feels like home again.
The first thing I spotted was this dead bird on a hat. weird. Ashley bought a deco mirror light for 15 bucks from our old friend Joey. Melissa found this cool little pinkie purse that she wants to make into a necklace.
She also couldn't resist trying on this out-of-control fringe jacket that was pretty awesome, just too big and boxy.  She did get a good little dance out of it and I got a good laugh.
My obsession with ships made me take this picture of a plate.
James Dean checking Melissa out. She smiled and said hi.
A flea market's not a flea market without some old creepy taxidermy.
Oh so happy to have this back in the neighborhood!
