Groovy Baby

Kristen came home with this classic retro lounge yesterday afternoon that came from a house not far from us. I thought it deserved a blog post all of it's own. It went up for auction on ebay last night.

More Vintage Suitcase and Shadow Box LOVE

I"ve blogged it before and I'll blog it again...Suitcases...there is never too much to love about vintage suitcases. A few shots below of today's haul heading over to the WAC.

These two are my favourites today but I do like the style of the one below too

Kristen also took over these cute Shadow Boxes below. These were so popular in the 50's and 60's and why not I say. I think they are particularly fun in kid's rooms as a spot to arrange their treasures. From lego men to china figurines, shadow boxes give a collection a stylish home.

Apologies the photos are not good. Below is my favourite. I love the kitsch, cliche, mexican man decal.  Up in the corner is a little mirror. 

The paint techniques on the one above and below were all the rage in the 50's. Everything was at least two toned and edges were often highlighted in a different colour, as on the one above.

I hope you are all having a good week.
