Austin Flea Market
If you have a free moment today, check out Austin Flea. This fairly new event, inspired by Brooklyn’s monthly market promises handmade art, jewelry, clothing, gifts, baked goods, live music and other holiday goodies. The event benefits the Blood and Tissue Center of Central Texas (vendor booth fees and entry fees go straight to the center). And, to make it all the more adorable, they’re offering drink specials on Bloody Marys! Kinda clever.
Read the Yelp review and prepare for what promises to be inspiring. Hit or miss, at $2, it’s worth checking out – I hope to be dazzled.

Well, it’s definitely not a flea market, it’s a petite crafts fair. But I’m not opposed to the concept. Very small – only about 10 vendors – but a nice variety. And, it’s in a bar, which has a cozy atmosphere. I’d say, it’s worth a trip for a quick spin and a bloody mary. But, I’m not sure I’d become a regular.
