fun finds this week!


i've always wanted to do this, a stack of vintage suitcases.  i bought these all at the same place, but from different vendors.  the top one is missing the handle so the seller rigged up a gauze handle, looks like a balled up paper towel in this picture, but it looks cooler in person.  plus if i told you how cheap it was you might have a heart attack.


these colors are right up my alley.


rusty metal barstool.  i think this barstool will be happy as a plant stand.


i'm going to attempt to turn this into a coat rack.  i need to find some kind of feet and hooks for this little number.


these are the most random thing i've ever bought, but they are so cute!  i bought them for my daughter but they don't fit her!  so bummed.


i also have some very bad news to report.  mr rooster arrived...with part of his beak missing.  poor mr rooster.  i'm very disappointed with his original owner.  what kind of knucklehead wraps a vintage ceramic lamp with one piece of bubble wrap and ships it across the country?!  mr. rooster had so much potential!

have a great weekend!

  2. I think I know where you bought that tray, because I almost bought it. Glad it went to a good home, and I am happy to know that I can come visit it...I hope. Love, love, love the suitcases.
