A belated flea market report:
These were a present from my favorite Park Slope flea market man.

They’re perfect for the HairHut Diorama.

Now Pat can have a cookie while she decorates after hours for all eternity.

And the fleamarket report for the weekend:
english pottery bowl and little danish spoon rests

And the haul from the weekend flea market - the roasting pan is huge and spectacular, it’s the best thing I ever got for 5 bucks and that little, mini red table vice is the perfect size, it just fits my work table and does it’s job without getting in the way.

A really excellent haul today - great sail and bird fabric, fantastic plastic horses
and little dishes to hold all my important little stuff.

Being two horses behind was driving me nuts. It couldn’t be helped though, the drive home on Friday was a miserable all day downpour type of affair so they had to wait till this morning. I’ve got 16 now and have a better sense what 100 is going to look like; much bigger than I had imagined and I’m starting to have some thoughts about what, if anything, to do with them when it’s over.

I went to the flea market and here’s what I got for $6.50.

Finally back to ship building! This one is a little brighter and more translucent. I’m going to try to get another frame built today.

These are some key ship building tools- The clamps were a gift but I think they came from home depot. I don’t know what I ever did without them. They’re light and have little swively grips. And floral tape, I love floral tape.

I had a great ship building weekend and finally, pretty much, finished one. I’ve been thinking about, and working on these for a long, long time. The do-overs became endless. I ran out of daylight today so I’ll probably post it tomorrow but here’s a preview of a couple sails, a silhouette and some stuff I got at the 3rd St. ( Park Slope) flea market .
