I've pulled together some more vintage finds to add to my stash for the upcoming sale--
this weekend-- at the 



I'll be selling this bistro set.  Perfect for the garden.  I found another bird cage and a swirly piece of ironwork.  I may turn this chippy carved frame into a chalkboard.  I'll have a selection of empty frames for sale too.




Lucky me, I found a swivel-seat stool and a heavy metal step stool.  I also will have these pop-out vintage cameras for sale and a cute little turquoise camera that has its original box and instruction manual.  Love the diamond shape in the window and the dental molding on the pediment.  I bought this walnut dresser drawer because I loved the blue inside.  I've been stacking books inside drawers and using them as small bookshelves.  The thick book with tabs is the largest unabridged dictionary I've ever seen.  The pages are marbleized too.



I love the color and pattern on this window.  I made some more chalkboards from vintage door panels, painted a mirror pink, a bamboo table citrine, a selection of architectural fragments and sewing machine drawers an assortment of colors, and another empty frame in a color I call Minty.  The vintage wire planter and the spring chair are a deep turquoise.  The floral quilt is vintage and would make a great table cover for a garden party.


Hope to see you at the Market.   Yea.  Can't wait.  Don't miss it.
My booth with be in the Main Entrance Field.  Please say hello.

Favorite Finds

I wanted to share some of my newest favorite vintage finds. 

I purchased this pair of foo dogs.  What do you think of the combination of red and turquoise?

I always buy bird cages when I find them.  This one reminded me of some Roman architecture.

Bird Cage, Iron Bird, Demijohn, and Egg Print in Burled Frame

Did you ever notice when you're out shopping that you find many of the same items?
It was a faux snakeskin kind of shopping trip.

Snakeskin Desk Blotter, Covered Box, Watch, Bracelet, and Trash Basket

Multiple finds again with ironstone pitchers.

I love old globes.  Notice the globe on the left has its own atlas tucked inside.

Mad Men-inspired barware is so popular.  I also found a tangle of bangles.

Great colors on these vintage picnic baskets.

I love finding typewriters and clock faces.  In the back ground is an old corduroy-covered ledger book.  The first page is marbleized.
