Blue Ridge Flea Market

The Blue Ridge Flea Market is located just South of Blue Ridge, Georgia on the Southbound  side of 515 (I 575). It is a small market with a lot to offer.

 I visited on a cold November morning so I expected it to be a little slow.  Even so, there were antiques and chickens. Clothes and primitive tools. I came away with a wooden level, a vintage rotary executive phone, a bayonet and an old trap.

There was a table full of antique and primitive tools to the left of the entrance. On the other end of the market there were converted storage units. A few of these had been joined together as an art gallery and Indian Craft Store. I spent quite a while in there looking over the hand made knives and leather work.

The Blue Ridge Flea Market is definitely worth a stop if you are in the area.

    Do you remember what primitive tools were there? Did you get a picture of any of them?

      Sorry Thomas, no pictures of those tools. He had a little of everything except Blacksmith tools.In particular I remember hatchets, axes and some wood working tools. I seem to remember a draw knife also. When asked about Blacksmith tools he told me he had a few at home but they were hard to come by.

Tell about your favorite flea market or latest find. I review comments before they are published. This may take a little while.
