DAVIS FLEA! I found you!
{Quite by accident, but I found you all the same.}
Today while I was heading to Goodwill to drop off some clothes, I stumbled upon an array of tents filled with vintage treasures of all shapes and sizes. It was like a little mini Brooklyn Flea, tucked right into a hidden parking lot in Davis Square.
GOLD!, I thought to myself as I walked through each tent, I have found gold.
There is furniture and records, jewelry and books and posters, too. And also, today there was a really great band. AND A POPSICLE STAND. Which was {naturally} the coolest of all.
COME ONE, COME ALL:
Davis Flea
52 Holland Street
Davis Square
Somerville, MA
… take a left out of the T station, walk past Au Bon Pain and the Flea will be on your left!
P.S. That’s Abbie’s sister Dewey who runs the absolutely ADORABLE {and delicious} Real Pops popsicle stand! I’ve never even met Abbie in real life {only in blogland!}, but I knew that was her sister through following her on instagram so I creepily went up to her and introduced myself, which was strangely not weird AT ALL. Don’t you just love the internet?

L O V E I T!
Isn’t the Flea so fun? I hadn’t been until Dewey started selling her pops there last fall, but now I love it! I’ve gotten some great jewelry, and it’s always fun to look at all the furniture. The Davis Flea is my new favorite!
It is my new favorite, too. Love how it’s intimate. And also how it’s so close to my house. :-D
That looks like such a blast!! And meeting bloggers friends/sisters/etc through social media? Kind of the coolest part. xoxo
I know, it is, isn’t it! :)
i’m thinking i need to go?
It’s pretty great. Smaller than SOWA, but there’s some really awesome finds there. Plus, Davis Square is great.
So, yes. You need to go!
I want to go to there AND I WANT AN IPHONE 5!!!!!!
:-D
You would love it there.
I’ve been meaning to go there since I discovered it online a few weeks ago, but always forget about! Good to know it’s nice!
Yes, you must go! There are so many treasures!
This is so fun. I love that photo of Dewey.
It was fun! A great find in more ways than one!
What what what?! Sounds like a hidden gem, I’ve never heard of this! Lots of records? Boy is always on the hunt for those and that will be a good selling point for a trip that way :)
Lots of records! Definitely make the trip! And if you go there’s a little shop in Davis called Magpie that I think you’d LOVE. :)
i love all these dreamy summer pictures. brian’s sister lives around there!
Does she? It’s a great area! And close to my house, too!
WHAT WHAT WHAT. how have i never heard of this?! and that’s nuts you saw abbie’s sister! anna, you are a tour guide for people who live in boston, you’re that good.
