Marche' aux puces

"Flea Market" a market of fleas, an open field of second hand and used furniture, a market infested with buyers and sellers, a place to sell your goods....all words defining the workings of a Flea Market. But for me, anything that has the word junk, market, vintage, salvation/salvage, thrift, antique, flea, yard, auction or rummage suites me just fine. Additional words I will accept are rust, chipped, torn, worn, distressed, used, old, as is or bargain. Ahhh....these words are magic to my ears and beauty to my eyes. As I close my eyes and think about them, my heart starts to beat fast because as I am thinking, I know that I will discover something salvaged, chipped, worn and beautiful about me.
