This is the final part of my creative inspiration travel photos. And this is probably my favourite collection of photos. If you would like to read the other installments, links here Part 1, part 2, part 3 and part 4. I have always loved antiques or ‘old’ things. But my antique attraction started during a sunny day in Lisbon whilst we were walking, exploring the city and decided to explore Avenida de Liberdade and stumbled upon a wonderful market. It was stall after stall of pre-loved treasures.
As mentioned in my 4th installment on our second day in Florence we came across markets where I found the following gems…..
On our way to the Basilica della Santa Croce, through a tiny laneway this adorned a store front step!
So many stores had wonderful pieces as their window dressing….
Couldn’t help another trip to the flea market in Florence!
I have been having fun googling the brands on the machines and instruments to ascertain rough vintage.
Another wonderful flea market, Port Antic Market, in beautiful Barcelona!
And these markets, Mercat del Encants, a wonderful find.
