I really try not to set foot in an antique mall/vintage store if I do not have a photo shoot/room disclosure – this is very dangerous. I Desire Find something, and if I don’t think I have space for something immediately (right ???).
But… Recently Bryan and I were on our biking trip in San Juan Islands, and we pop in a vintage shop, Smorgusboard I would have left more on the orkas island, and if I had a room in my carry-on. it was so good. And the owner, Melani (I think !!), there was a reader, who made me feel good (he had a great taste and was very good). I wanted everything, so I came home with some “souvenirs” to remember the journey. I also like to think that it is my duty to ensure that they are really good stores and dealer in business, especially if their prices are excellent (so appropriate). Here I came home (apart from some other recent search)
It came from a property on the water color island, and I thought it was the perfect piece to remind me of this trip (which was super special with Brian). I can always find a place for more art (especially this size), and I think I am going to hang it in my bathroom. If I want to turn it into dark wood, perhaps even with a green matte, but we will see if I get it.
Both Bryan and I loved this wood -handed piece – we thought it would be the perfect napkin holder for our dining table (or outside).
As if I needed more wooden pieces, but they are very good and had such good prices, and easy to pack. Wooden dish is perfect for jewelry for a nightstand or bathroom, and mixed candlesticks are completely generous and special. Yes, a hoard, but also a great gift?
I could not pass a piece of green with this beautiful legs of utensils, obviously. I think it was $ 22 and just felt both really special And It is easy to style with.
Okay, they were no longer from smorgasborg. I needed art to appear for my brother’s family room, and it needed to be moody with a hit of Burgundy (in an ideal world). So i read Jhalar And said, “Any cool art for this room?” And sent him a picture of it. He had one of these groups, unfermed, and I chose these three. They implicated them in simple wood, which is perfect, and we hanged them vertically on the wall. I really love all three. After framing, they ended as $ 330 for all three, which I thought was appropriate for both original art and framing labor/supply.
This man (and below lamp) I bought for myself on Mother’s Day Montiselo antique mallThe one who sells mimosas also 🙂 I think it was less than $ 20 (I hope, lol, I really feel that it can be $ 12?) And I am not sure when/it is going to start with it, but it is bizarre and strange and calm, so clearly I had to buy it.
Now this lamp is very incredible. It was not cheap ($ 120), but I thought if I was in Italy and I stumbled on it for that price, then I would buy it, so why not save money on flight/shipping ?? Tell me if you need to help in rationalizing anything vintage – this is a real skill. I still have to get it again, which will cost more than the cost of the lamp, so I am waiting to know where it will go, but it reminds me of the colorful tiffany lamp in our kitchen that I am completely passionate, so I am confident that I can find a place to add another color lamp that really pleases the eyes.
I love this small piece of art and bought it for myself. It is simple, with good texture and it is easy to include in the walls of the gallery in which they have more abstract pictures. This is by designer Anastasia retia,
Last but minimal, by another piece of art JhalarA local artist I have commissioned for my coffee table, my corbels and my oversize paintbrush and pencil. He is an artist who can do anything honestly. I like the strange feeling of colors and balance.
What is your favorite piece ????
