At Sunday Soul Sante : Time to Flea again!

This Sunday was the day for Sunday soul santé- a popular flea market for the creative, quirky, innovative designer brands and upcoming labels to exhibit their work from all over the country.  People creating new ideas from all the categories - be it arts, graphics, up-cycling of used products, totally handmade stuff, quick do it yourself (DIY) things, funky fashion accessories to smart home products or unique smart products. You could see everything at the same place. The fashion show and music bands playing later in night were the perfect way to wind up the event.

SECOND TO NONE- THE 220 FLEA MARKET

Hasn’t shopping these days become boring?
Kudos to the mall culture, you can find the same shoes you were drooling on (and also got them at a hefty price) on a girl walking right ahead of you.

But, you see, God takes care of all his children. Hence, there are flea markets.

Flea markets are small bazaars of a temporary raw setup where people with creative ideas of new/old products, upcoming labels, bartering etc. put up stalls. They can be based on design concept, selling fruits and vegetables or stand with themes such as up-cycling/re-cycling of products as a green step of moving closer to nature.

Second-to-None is one such flea market completely on a concept of re-use, re-cycle, up-cycle and the green idea. It took place at Jaaga on KH road on a Sunday. People who put up stalls came up with some amazing green ideas in their minds.

It feels great to acknowledge and come across such people- making new things out of the old, keeping memories revived or simply giving a rebirth to some old discarded material.
Here are the glimpses. And the details will follow up in the next posts! :)
