Something old...something new

The old tarnish metal with the budding roses...my vintage spring day

More Chair Love

Aurhous Furniture- Love this chair. Its so traditional yet cleaned up for that modern look. Definitely an option for our living room
Too bad this one's not for sale, its amazing- the color the texture the size is just incredible. Levi's flagship in SF will u sell this to me, pleeease!

Cute little thrift store find, too bad it was fake wood :( what a bummer. For $7 I should have just bought it anyway lol

Obviously we have been out looking for chairs. These are some of the photos i have collected in the search. We're having such a hard time finding something thing we "love" and works in the space. And speaking of space, its hard to just focus on the space we have now being what we're buying for. We live in a cute apt but we are looking to buy by the time our lease is up in another 13months, so, we don't want to make purchases that are specifically for this apt. We need something that works here and will work in the future. I'm so ready to find it! I want the feeling of "done" for the living room :)

Consignment Finds

I went thrifting recently. There is a Ohio Thrift connected to a consignment shop that I really can find some great things. I popped int the consignment shop, for once. We are looking for some furniture and it would be so fun to find a great vintage piece. Really liked these too chairs but my fiance didn't see their potential.

I love how this one has a great pattern on the back and the seat. I thought a little paint and maybe a re-stain or paint on the upper back and it would have been adorable...I guess I'll never know
I just love this chair. Like where in the world did it come from? Like it doesn't look living room, dinning room appropriate. Maybe a desk? office? Who knows but its so cute.

Finished Projects

love how this turned out! I used a down pillow to stuff, and it just made it so much better!

My pillow case apron :)

Vintage projects

I've had some amazing luck out vintage shopping recently. I love too to get clothing or fabrics to turn them into something else. Below are some of the fabrics I purchased that I will post pictures of later of what I turned them into :)....I'll post the finds I didn't cut up later too!

love this mixed pattern pillow case...making an apron :)
This is a king size pillow case. I just love the worn look of this but it still has such a great rich color...apron, maybe

Men's shirt. I wish when I photographed this one that I left it completely open, it is such a huge shirt and the photo doesn't give it justice...shirt dress that fits lol

Men's shirt. Great fabric! its so thick like canvas and the top is brushed so its so soft!...pillow

I'd pass on the denim

Denim shorts and tights...pretty unflattering. But the non demin short look a TON better
