We went on a mini-vacation to Hot Springs for Spring Break. Of course, we went to a few flea markets.
First, pictures of Historic Hot Springs.
"The Hot Springs Rehabilitation Center (HSRC), run by Arkansas Rehabilitation
Services, was the first combined general hospital for both U.S. Army
and Navy patients in the nation. This joint services hospital was
created ahead of the Navy Hospital Corp and over twenty years before the
founding of the now-infamous Walter Reed Army Medical Center."
I have actually been inside this building.
One of the MANY bathhouses on Bathhouse Row. You can tour several. I have toured this one before. Very educational! Never had a bath there but you can!
The Arlington Resort and Spa.
Oh how I would love to live on one of those floor apartments. What you could see!
This one makes me sad because it is so run down. I bet that it was once a beauty!
Every time we pass this building I tell my husband we should buy it to restore. Of course, there is NO way we could do that but I still tell him we should!
Now for the thrifty finds............
Brand new Lands End rainboots $9.
Another wire basket before. Loved the vintage look.
Lamp from Goodwill....$8. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!
With my new flea market additions I decided to overhaul my bathroom. Spray painted the black lamp base a turquoise.
Do you see the "new" basket??
It now holds my scarves, reading material, and towels. I added and rearranged my clock wall. The gold and silver clocks were found at flea markets for $2 each. Another utility box was added to the tower (third form the top) which houses guest necessities.
There ya go! Hot Springs proved to be very fruitful!!
