« Flea TV - Scavenger Hunt Items: May 30 »

What's new mostly this year is the friggin' weather has been cooperating with ze Flea on a full-on weekly basis. Sacre bleu this weekend looks beeyooteefull!

Oh, we also got some killer new vendors.

Housing Works is back, Housing Works is back! Combining the prowess of the ambitious and excellent AIDS housing, health, and more organization's Gramercy and Brooklyn (Montague St.) thrift shops, the HW folks will have a sampling of vintage furniture, clothing, accessories, books, shoes, and more every Saturday in Fort Greene starting this week. Rejoice! B7/FG, Sat

Mary Ellen and Keith of Walker Antiques down in southeastern Pennsylvania are always a huge hit at the Flea, and though they're technically only new this year, we don't want you to miss out. They've got this country/industrial/salvage look (above) that makes some New Yorkers squeal with faux-pastoral glee--which we support. Old doors, dime-store signs, metal lamps, giant wooden workbenches, and the like. W1/FG, Sat

Stylish onetimer alert! Kit von Dalwig and her collective of Brooklyn designers and architects have an assortment of vintage collectibles, design items, and clothing to dispense with. We have a feeling a few folks will be willing to oblige. W6/FG, Sat

Speaking of industrial, City Owl Vintage is Ashley's upstart Brooklyn biz as a collector, and it's a doozy. Foundry molds, glass beakers, metal bins and lamps (right), all packed into an 8x8 booth. Scour and ye shall find. E37/FG, Sat

Fort Greener Amanda Carter has an awesome collection of vintage jewelry, specializing in Art Deco, Art Nouveau and Victorian pieces, with some newer pieces thrown in. E36/FG, Sat

The well-loved Red Hook soap and flowers shop Saipua (which is moving to Van Dyke St. this weekend) is setting up shop with their pals Box and Flea and Totally Bruce this Saturday. They have beautiful bandannas, totes, jewelry, and of course Saipua's trademark soaps. E24/FG, Sat

Chairloom was around a lot last season, but this is just their second appearance of '09. Upholstered classic chairs (right) and ottomans, no more no less. Expert to a T. V5/FG, Sat

In Dumbo for the last Sunday indoors, a couple of local folks will have tables worth seeking out.

Longtime film publicist Reid Rosefelt (Stranger than Paradise, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and his wife Melissa will be unloading a career's worth of DVDs and CDs on Sunday. They have mostly foreign and independent titles as well as some rarities--plenty to dig through for the cinebuff. #41/81 Front, Sun

Estelle Swaray has tons of designer dresses and handbags she needs to dispense with--please help her out! #19/81 Front, Sun
