The Best of Flea Market Home and Living Magazine.

Boy, were we excited and pleasantly surprised to see Mowers Saturday Sunday flea market mentioned on page 127 of a recent issue of The Best of Flea Market Home and Living Magazine. A friend who lives in Florida sent along the photos. Then, our daughter found the magazine in one of the Kingston big box stores. Imagine- that is nationwide recognition. It looks like we are in some pretty good company! We are open thru October 2022, weather providing. Mowerssaturdayfleamarket.com, woodstockfleamarket@hvc.rr.com, 845-679-6744

Meet Gat and Ranaan

Gat and Ranaan Gabriel 

Gat and Ranaan are part of a new crew of vendors at the flea market this year.  As they tell their story,

“This has been our first season and we are very happy to be here. We arrived in Woodstock three years ago, just about half a year before COVID hit, and since then we’ve been waiting for the opportunity to meet the wonderful community and local residences. Woodstock has been the perfect location between the market’s vibe and all of the people who pass through. We’re grateful to be able to show our community what we do. “

As part of my interview, I ask for a little background as to how our vendors began the journey to where they are today – selling their creations  at the flea market.

“Starting as graphic designers, we both walked our own artistic paths, until we settled in Woodstock and started our collaboration: Word Paintings. We paint words. Visualizing the meaning of ‘words’ is the center of our work, revealing the accents and meaning through shapes, forms, colors, and composition.

We begin our Word Paintings with a single word (though every now and then we use a short phrase). It can be any word yet we find ourselves more drawn to those that which people often forget how powerful they really are. We’re interested in the way we experience them; that is where you feel meaning, a presence, a physical feeling and power that a word can give. With this ‘code’ we start our visual adventure. Think about ‘SOUL’, ‘WE’, ‘BREATHE’, or ‘MOM&DAD’. Think of the emotions that come with reading these words and you can start imagining the vast fields of creativity that are waiting to be explored. Our medium consists of a mix between digital artwork as well as oil and acrylic painting and pencil. The outcome is a sort of conclusion, the sum of both the spiritual & physical means, in other words, a PAiNTiNG.”

Lastly,  I always ask What do you like about being at the flea market?

“Besides meeting all the people who gather at the flea, we love and are grateful for all the feedback and support we received. It’s honestly priceless. We present a selection of our works and introduce new words every week, and in turn receive responses which are truly spectacular. These just continue to encourage us to create more works. Thank you! And please visit us in person or also online! :)”

Dorothy and Jill Surrounded by Their Fantastic Collection of This and That

 

Dorothy and Jill have been working Mower’s Saturday Sunday for almost forty years. They have an expert eye for buying a wide variety of items to re-sell.  Their booth has a different look every week.  Vintage jewelry, sterling, clothing from different era’s, including boots, coats and sweaters in season. Also, books and magazines that include an eclectic assortment of topics.  Both women agree that they love the social aspect of visiting each weekend with their customers and fellow flea market vendors as well.  

We are open Monday September 5th, 2022

 Labor Day weekend is upon us.  We don’t know about you, but our summer seems to have flown by.  We continue to celebrate the 45^th year of the iconic Mower’s Saturday Sunday flea market in Woodstock, N.Y.   We are open Sept 3, Sept 4, and Monday Sept. 5^th in case you are lingering in town before the vacation is over and the back-to-school schedules begin.  As always, up to date information can be found at 845-679-6744 and at #mowerssaturdayfleamarket on Instagram and FB.  Thanks for being a fan!  See you at the market, at the corner of Deanies Alley and Maple Lane in Woodstock, N.Y

Franne first started setting up at the flea market almost 25 years ago. Her booth was filled with her featured items, vintage housewares and a wonderful collection of the most beautiful tea pots. We had a good laugh when Franne  recalled that I purchased a set of beautiful cobalt blue candle sticks to give to our daughter as a bridal shower gift.  In those early years, she would drive up from Rockland county most Saturdays.  Eventually her set up grew to include books, housewares and a large VHS collection.  As the years went by, Franne lived closer to Woodstock, her items for sale changed from VHS to DVD collections and vintage clothing.   As we have emerged from pandemic selling, Franne has changed her booth once again to fine vintage clothing, a curated book selection  and a specialty item, vintage kimonos.  She is able to alter and repair any damaged kimonos that she may purchase.  Franne has an amazing eye for color and her booth has a beautiful red, purple, blue and yellow vibe to it.  You can find her most Saturdays down the Maple lane side of the flea, on the  inside corner.
