for the love of vintage, handmade & twee

As a girl I used to spend hours with my mother on the weekends searching through antique auctions and bric a brac stores. As an adult nothing much has changed, only how much I'm allowed to spend! This is my way of sharing my love with people who love good design and pretty little things.

Vintage inspried whimsical tablescapes....

I know, I know it's been a while since I posted about my love of vintage but today I was going through my style files and came across a few of these amazing tablescapes and thought I had to share... I love vintage tablescapes, they incorporate everything I love about vintage; delicacy, details, layers, textures & colour.

Living with Orange...

More and more of late I have been obsessed with using orange somewhere in my house... I am thinking for winter I might go and splurge on a new set of cushions and play around with the idea in my living room...

Loving this print by Bucks County Frames. I am definitely thinking this might be a first purchase for the living room...













Love Love Love! Love the runner and adore the stripe!

Table success...

How cute are these low budget table centerpiece's made with flowers from Martha Stewart? So many people dismiss flowers that are cheap (as in $5 to $10 a bunch), but look at how sweet they look, plus they are generally available all year round. I love the idea that you can make a bunch of flowers spread further by using bud vases and by using all different types you create a striking table. Though true to my heart my favourite has to be the one with recycled tins...







These images have cheered me up and given me a little summer to this awful cold weather. Hope it does the same for you! xox
