The crazy cat lady in me could not pass up this never used 1950s guest towel for $8.
Does anybody have or know of a blog where the blogger posts their vintage finds? I know there has to be a bunch out there but I've never found one. I started one a while ago but I suck at updating it so maybe if I see others I will be more motivated. http://ourvintagelife.blogspot.com/ |

| vintage stores? |
[Sep. 19th, 2008|01:55 pm] |
Hi everyone! So I'm in a predicament. I don't normally travel very much around the US, and recently I've just begun doing so for my kind of new job. My main thing when travelling is usually seeing art, and finding vintage clothing stores.
Anyone have any advice of places I should go to in Baltimore, MD, or New Orleans?
Thanks all!

so i finally decided to refinish these cabinets. it definitely took some time to get started; around 2 years. i can't find the before pictures. i must have deleted them at some point. they were blonde, but the finish was really faded and inconsistent. you really couldn't tell from the photos anyway.

I'm curious - what does everyone do for employment?
I find it difficult to reconcile my interest in the past with the need to support myself in the modern world. Am I the only one? I'm wondering how other people have come to terms with this problem. |

I just noticed there is a tv programme on tonight about 30s, 40s, 50s housewives. four modern day women test out how housewives used to live in those eras. Sounds very interesting!
It's on british tv, channel 4 7.30pm tonight (8th august)
Very excited!

I picked up this vintage wicker picnic basket at my neighbour's garage sale for $50.00. My heart just about stopped when I saw it and I had to have it. The story is that this belonged to her parents who were married in England and moved to Canada in the early 1950's, and this was a wedding present.
I couldn't believe she was parting with this but she and her husband were downsizing and had to sell off many of their things. I promised her that it was going to a good home. I haven't been able to find out anything about the name that I found inside, which is Coracle.

| 1940's Suit |
[Aug. 5th, 2008|07:55 pm] |
My latest find at a fantastic vintage shop in San Francisco called Decades of Fashion. I always want to buy things in this place, and can never decide what; they have seriously everything. Plus, this number was on sale on account of some minor fading on the suit jacket:
( 1940's Glam )
The whole ensemble cost me only $30, plus the price of having the skirt taken in and the jacket dry-cleaned.
