The Long Beach Antique Flea Market




Karis and I got a spot at the Long Beach Antique Flea Market this past Sunday.  It was NUTS, but so worth it!  Here is how it went down:

Rikki: At Stephanies bachlorette party on Friday and Saturday in Palm Springs.
Karis and Chris:  Had to load 2 trucks up with pretty much our whole entire store (wish we could've taken the whole store but it just didn't fit in our truck)
Rikki:  Drive back from Palm Springs at 10:30 at night.

Rikki, Karis, Chris, Justin:  On the road at 3:00 am headed to Long Beach only to get in line wrapped around the entire veterans stadium full of antique vendors at 4:30am!!  NUTS.

We lost one of our super cute vintage school chairs along the way...But we made it!!  Set up...and sold a TON of stuff!!


We may have forgot our easy up.  So we were baking in the hot sun all day!  I must say that the Long Beach sun is a lot less potent as the Lake Elsinore sun, so that was good.


We may have forgotten some chairs for us all to sit in all day, so standing or sitting on the ground happened.


We sold this cute Mid-Century hutch real quick.


And the turquoise table.


Surprisingly no one bought this CUTE table.  Everyone LOVED it but she still hasn't found a home.


Then we packed a lot less stuff than what we came with (which is always a good thing) and headed home!!

It was an adventure and a good time!!!  You all should check that Flea Market out, it has hundreds of all antique and vintage vendors.  There are some treasures to be had!!
