I've been reading about how New Orleans was voted the number one spot in the nation for flea…read moremarkets; so how come Yelp is lacking on reviewing them? This is why a NOLA Elite is needed... I got a tip on River Road Flea Market from an acquaintance, who became an acquaintance because I was asking about where to get furniture. Of all the stores and spots she recommended, this was my favorite and definitely the best. It was a little difficult to find because their address online says the city's name is Jefferson and my GPS only recognizes Jefferson as a parish. Now I know it's in New Orleans city, and not all the far away at all. It's located literally right by the river, separated by a grassy bank and the levee. The building is HUGE. It's like a warehouse divided into little rooms, all of which are decorated with amazing antiques and thrifty finds for a fairly reasonable price (about 125 for a desk-sized table, 150 for a wardrobe or dresser). It's not the cheapest spot, but the quality of the merchandise makes up for it. They get most of their merchandise from estate sales, apparently, and the eclectic collection certainly reflects that. Several of the rooms are themed: jewelry, records, children's furniture and toys (there was an amazing vintage rocking chair that I would buy just to anticipate having children... except I'm not), books, etc. Outside in a small gated area, they sell specialty Mexican pottery, most of which is large and would be appropriate for a yard, and wrought iron benches and trellises. I purchased a vintage bracelet for $5, and I can't wait to go back and actually purchase furniture, once I'm moved in! Just don't beat me to it; there's a table and a bedframe that I've already got my eye on...

They usually have live music and a wide variety of food and arts and crafts vendors. Lots of samples! Parking kinda sucks although it's gotten better now that they've all but finished construction on Harrison. My favorite place to park is the street behind reginellis. Mommy notes: Very kind friendly. Usually has free kid crafts and/or face painting. Not super cramped so you can stroller it all up if need be. The things love dancing in front the music stage.

I have found the most unique gifts for my niece and nephew here, and they gift wrap, too! Displays are grouped by theme, so it's easy to find what you're looking for- or get lost in all the fun stuff there is to look at, like I did. I even found a stocking stuffer for my husband, a win! There is also an impressive book selection. And right now, there's a red mailbox outside, where kids can mail letters to Santa. This place is an absolute treasure, DO NOT miss it when you're strolling on Magazine! There's something for everyone! #ThankYouThursday
