vintage goodness

i have a few weaknesses

buying/selling furniture

(Deer detests this fetish of mine; something about always moving furniture?)

(what are manly muscles for anyway...)

cupcakes

(don't even get me started)

but my greatest weakness

is a good thrift store.

oh i love wandering the aisles

finding forsaken lovelies and plopping them in my cart.

i have a rule when i go thrifting

and a rule that everyone (ahem, Auntie Gigi and Aunty Bodi) should live by

when you go thrifting/antiquing you put EVERTHING you love in your cart

lest someone else grab it before you go back for it.

then, at the end, before checkout, you do your inventory.

do i need this?

do i want this?

have i been looking for this forever and ever?

i picked these lovelies up a few weeks ago

i have a weakness for vintage brass figurines

as if you couldn't tell from the shop.

right now the sweet painting is on the window ledge of the kitchen window 

however, it will be moving to Little Lady's room soon.

and that mug?

*dies*

its a vintage FireKing and i love it oh so dearly

i also found on that has orange kite geometric shapes on it.

do you thrift?

do you collect?

do you have a weakness for vintage goodness?

you should :)

fawning over : mid century furniture

if you know me

you know i looooove mid century furniture.

they make me weak in the knees

and give me wiggles in the heart.

sometimes i'll come across a piece

and literally lose my breath.

i saw these posted for sale  locally and had to share.

just had to.

because i'm obsessed.

and i think everyone should tell Deer that i neeeed these pieces

i do. i need them.

a girl can never have too many hutches.

oh the wood color and the texture. 

they simply do not make furniture like they used to.

please tell Deer that I also need this mid century chest

sigh.

alright i've drooled enough over furniture

hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

we are off to spend Fri and Sat with family.

my babies will get to see their great grandparents!

xoxo, Doe.
