online vintage shoppe coming soon

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

for the past 15 years i have been enamored with the things of the past. design, art, books, people, philosophies, fashion, decor, architecture, furniture, cartoons, film, toys, music, product packaging, you name it. i deeply admire how everything was so sleek and simple yet so abundant. resources were constructed with utmost quality and vibrancy before the days of outsourcing.

as a consequence to loving these fine crafted items before my time, i continue  to come home with these one of a kind finds on a very regular basis. to resist these gems seems very unnatural to me. i feel that somehow i need to be apart of  these beauties lives to continue the love they once had. to continue their story in a completely different setting than where and how these  treasures lived before. i even fantasize about how their early lives were lived and with whom, where and when exactly.

in my years of collecting such goods i have had enough to fill up all the houses on my street. it is now (next month, exactly) that i share these valuables with you. my treasures range from paper goods to shoes, accessories for the home and body, and everything in between. most notably, the shoppe will feature choice clothing, books and toys for children. 

following the launch of the shoppe i will also provide services as a personal shopper/stylist specializing in vintage finds for those of you that would like to add some va va voom to your wardrobe and your surroundings. 

much more information will be available soon. if you have any questions before that, please send them my way. until then.

Monday, September 29th, 2008

i have been buried in yo-yo’s and recently came up with a few ideas. soon you will be able to purchase these vintage yo-yo’s that i have manifested into pins, earrings, hair clips, headbands, and embellished on tote bags, baby hats and tiny TOMS
