ANSONIA - If you have an eye for style and a knack for reinvention, you're invited to put your talents to the test and sign up for My Sister’s Place Flea Market Flip!

MSP Flea Market Flip is a fun, creative twist on recycling or upcycling similar to the HGTV show with the same name, Flea Market Flip. 
Proceeds from the sale of each flip item will benefit BHcare’s The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services. 

Individual participants or teams of two must purchase their flip item(s) at MSP for $50 or less by Sept. 30. 
Registration forms are available at the store and must be completed at the time of purchase. No more than $50 may be spent on repurposing/upcycling the item(s). Receipts must be shown when submitting the repurposed item.

Items will be displayed and sold Oct. 14 at the Ansonia Armory, 25 N. Cliff St.

The day will feature special guest Mark DeVito, Master Craftsman from HGTV’s Flea Market Flip along with DIY demos including furniture de-stressing, furniture white washing, knitting, and crocheting. 
Attendees will also have the opportunity to cast a vote for their favorite flip. The flip with the most votes wins!
