New Favorites In: Vintage, Print, and Leather

What I've been doing lately. Well.....

I scored loads of vintage finds last weekend. I'm in "awe" of this vintage leather suitcase with travel stickers

In the print shop. I'm having so much fun sketching up tee shirt designs. I just finished this one today and already printed up a few tee's and added them to the shop.

And as for the leather. I've been making quite a few belts and dog collars for people I know lately. All suporting my dog's surgury fund. Here is a custom "Luna" belt I just finished up. Thanks to my friend Dane for the awesome idea!

hope you like!

Carousel

This is a new piece I have listed in my vintage shop. A brass carousel mobile. It winds up and plays a pretty little song, you can listen here:

I'm not sure of the tune, but the mobile IS maked "Aquarius". Maybe it's the hit 60's song from the musical "Hair"??? I guess it kind of sounds like that song, but it's hard to tell. Maybe someone else knows? I'd love to hear.

I love this piece though, too cute!

Oldies but Goodies

Found some old treasures that I'm pretty in love with right now.

  Mid Century 18"....I said 18" in diameter electric GE fan. Absolutely fantastic piece.

 Hand done wood burning of a woman's profile. I found this in a pile of pictures at a thrift store. To my surprise when I turned it over it was signed and dated, " From Emma To Katie Dec. 25th, 1906 ".

You can find both these items for sale in my vintage shop right now. Just click on my vintage shop link to the right.

Till next time!

This Week's Vintage Finds

Found some cool vintage this week! Especially excited about these little pretties.

We're headed to the auction house again tonight. Cross my fingers it's a good one! My husband and I went to our first auction a few weeks back, and it was sooo much fun!

Have a great Super Bowl weekend,

New Year

                                
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! My holiday was action packed to say the least.  As much as I love Christmas, I'm soooo glad that it's over. It was a super busy month for me. I'm now ready to say ... hello 2011!

After the first of the year I will be changing the look of my vintage shop a bit. Here's a peek of what you'll find: 

Keep your eyes peeled for LOTS more vintage finds added regularly. Can't wait to show everyone!

I wish everyone a safe and happy new year filled with many adventures.

Cheers!

The Vintage Scrapbook

Recently I went to this amazing estate sale. The kind of estate sale where there was so much cool stuff, I had to come back two days in a row! One unique item I found was this old scrapbook.

Inside are magazine and newspaper clippings dating back to the 40's. Mostly wildlife. Birds, butterflies, farm animals. Some really gorgeous images! I will be framing some of these into vintage picture frames, and making available for you in my shop.

Here are a couple I have framed and ready. Super cute, huh?!!!

Hope you enjoy...Cheers!!!

Vintage Finds

Even though this weekend is the busiest shopping weekend of the year, and I usually avoid it like the plague being out amongst the crazy crowds...I just couldn't resist stopping at a few stores. One being my good friend, the thrift store. Good thing I did because I got some smokin' deals! Here's a preview of what I snagged up. These items will be for sale in my shop bdvintage.etsy.com over the the week or so. Enjoy!

Now I'm off to play in the mountain snow and chop down a Christmas tree! Whoo Hoo!!
