Porter Flea in East Nashville

Yesterday my wonderful husband watched the kids for me so I could head down to East Nashville to check out a brand new handmade indie flea market called Porter Flea.  I loved it!  I was inspired by seeing others handmade goods, I bought some vintage earrings to use in my jewelry making, and I met some fellow local crafters!  Plus, I also indulged in a cupcake and a yummy iced coffee. :)  It was nice to have a few hours by myself just soaking it all in.  I always come back inspired with a million ideas running through my head!



The Almond Tree is where I got my pistachio cupcake.  It was very tasty!



Handmade baked goods.


Adorable children's clothing.


Lots of fun, sweet hand sewn items.


Tons of awesome vintage stuff!  She had some great vintage clothes and a pair of shoes I would've loved  to buy for myself!  I grabbed many of the vendors business cards and plan to find their websites, blogs, and FB pages so I can become a fan and follower of each of them.  It is great to form a network with other local crafters for tips, ideas, and just to support one another.
