Updates & Instagram Round-Up: January 2013

Hello everyone! Like many of you, we have been busy with life, getting our Etsy business off the ground, and working to make this blog better. We are anxious to put some new items we've acquired on the shop.  We'll post some sneak-peeks soon!

 

A tutorial is in the works, so please vote on our new poll underneath the Etsy heart!

 

And to show we are still alive--here are a few Instagram snapshots so far this year.

Nifty Finds of 2012

Hello everyone! 

 2012 seemed to come and go so fast! Looking back at our finds from vintage hunting, we've gathered up a few to share with you.


 

I was so excited when we found this Samsonite suitcase. The outside is in excellent condition and definitely still usable. The blanket has come in handy so many times! It is a great picnic blanket, throw, and  perfect to use in the car. At only $1, we are now going to keep our eyes open to things we usually don't gravitate towards...

BAG, BLANKET AND SUITCASE

GLOVES, CLUTCH AND BOOKS!
