When he realized that his place was started to look like a perfect IKEA showroom, Nicolas decided it was time to change and started out of curiosity to see what a flea market looked like. 8 years and a thousand finds later, he is now looking for a bigger flat to accommodate all his awesome flea market treasures, vintage items and design furniture. Nicolas has been featured on The Wall Street Journal, Homes & Antiques, HGTV Magazine, Refinery 29, NPR, and CBS New York. Connect with Nicolas on Google+
