One of the great things about being a vintage buyer and seller for a living is that sometimes I can buy something, keep it for awhile to see if it works for me, and sell it if it doesn’t. This ...
Sweet baby jeebus. Y’all know I need another collection like a hole in the head, but sometimes these things cannot be helped. Besides, this one has been brewing for awhile as some of you may ha...

Before I show you the find for YOU, my lovely readers, I’d like to show you the things I couldn’t live without yesterday. Now, I already have a cookie jar. A very cute little birdhouse, ...
Dudes. Is it possible that the 3d time is the charm? We had SO much great luck today! Today I had the pleasure of shopping with my super fun pal Cassie and the fabulous Chelsea from Atomic Summer....
