From the New York Times–bestselling author of I Brake for Yard Sales: An inspiring step-by-step guide to reinventing your space with secondhand finds. Focusing on nine different rooms (including her own recently purchased Manhattan apartment), Lara Spencer, host of HGTV’s Flea Market Flip, shows that all it takes is planning, shopping know-how, and a little imagination to create a beautiful and comfortable home that reflects your personal style. She walks through the step-by-step process of overcoming the challenges of the room, offering helpful tips and lessons along the way. She identifies the design dilemma; comes up with a decorating plan; makes a mood board for inspiration; compiles a shopping list; scours flea markets for furniture and accessories that fit the bill; restores, repurposes, and reinvents the pieces she finds, giving them new life; and brings all the elements together in the gorgeous, finished space. With illuminating before, during, and after photographs of her DIY projects and the room installations, Lara demystifies the decorating process and allows you to envision endless possibilities for what you can do in your own home. “Lara Spencer has a secret superpower: making homes look like a million bucks using only bargain finds and easy D.I.Y. projects.” —Redbook

Fleamarket Chic is the smart way to decorate now, adding texture, color, and depth to contemporary interiors. In modern rooms, a distressed chair or a vintage mirror adds a perfect finishing touch. And in traditional decorating schemes, fleamarket chic is a key part of the mix: faded textiles, weathered furniture, mis-matched china, and the occasional flamboyant lamp or work of art are all part of the charm. Of course, Fleamarket Chic is about saving you money, along with recycling, upcycling, and repurposing. But it’s also about a sense of history and place, about individuality, and creating a home that reflects your life and personality. Every piece in a Fleamarket Chic interior has a story: the colorful pitcher you found at a garage sale, the vintage telephone you reclaimed when a favorite aunt finally bought a modern handset, the little chair you found in a county junk store, or the old trash cans that have been converted into fashionable zinc planters. In Fleamarket Chic, we’ll show you how to spot the clever find in a pile of junk, where to look and how to negotiate, how to smarten up (and when not to smarten up) second-hand items, and how to re-discover and re-use things you or your family already have.
