This is consumerism - it’s an entertaining watch.
Recycling, recovery, reconditioning, reuse - it has been done since ancient times and is also valid in present …
When you can’t afford new things, but you can refurbish and reuse old things, a visit to flea markets/junk shops can be a saving solution.
I like old things and only if I feel a special attraction, something that seems to be calling me, I buy, normally only what my budget allows… Many old things, things that I bought from flea markets, have been refurbished and reused. Moreover, some of them have found new owners. I like to bring them back to life or give them another life.This is my hobby.
At the flea market
- old vase made of white clay and shards (approximately 100 years after the black color on the surface / the difference from the broken clay and the ceramic models, of course, it is made by hand, without firing in a ceramic oven).
Of course, it must be cleaned, the cracks repaired and then I will apply a layer of protective varnish.

It does look cute and my strawberries in garden are starting to ripen… my grandson ate the first one red 
but talking about consumerism… I rather go to thrift store to see if I find something, usually it’s cheap and it gets reused…
The salad looks yummy!!
I’m having almost every day onion… I had to harvest them since they spiked in bloom, so greens go in freezer and the onion root cooking or in salad…
I want to plant also sweet potatoes, need to find a spot…in the garden lot…
