winterwhitesWe have a bunch of new listings up in our Etsy shop.  These pieces are great for brightening up cloudy winter days:

* Antique Ironstone Tureen – Has a lovely blue tint, octagonal shape and was made around the 1880s.  The tureen is still sturdy and ready to be used again.

*Five Vintage Children’s Pillow Cases – Each has a different handmade detail.

*Set of Unused Vintage Linen Tablecloth and Napkins – These ten napkins and tablecloth still have their original “Made in Belgium”labels and are made of beautiful quality linen.

*Paint-by-Number Winter Scene – The colors of this little painting are bright and calm.

Chris has been begging me to knit him a sweater for years now. I am sure I will get to his sweater one of these days, but there are so many sweet knitting patterns for children to get through while our kids are still small…This is one of my favorites:  The Lyalya Hoodie ABC Pattern.  The pattern comes with directions for ages six months-adult.  I knitted this one up in Brooklyn General Store’s cashmere.  I splurge on this amazing yarn once in a while and it is the softest, most beautiful yarn I have ever knit.  (Even the letter-pressesd label is gorgeous).  I made Ada a couple of hats made from the yarn and they still look beautiful after years of use.  Lyalya’s pattern knits up quickly and it is fun to watch the ribs build as you go.  The result is a snuggly hat that does not require tying on to a wiggly three-year-old.  The cashmere is so soft that scratchy-hat whining is completely avoided.

Hello and happy First Week of the Year!  I hope you are all weathering the crazy cold in a cozy spot.  We have been staying warm inside, and staying busy posting new vintage finds in our Etsy shop.  (I am having a really hard time not sneaking the two sets of juice glasses into our own cabinets).  I will be putting up new listings this week, so stay indoors and keep checking back for fresh treasures!

Ikea Finds: Spotted Duvet

One of our favorite gifts from Santa this year was this spotted linen PS 2012 Ikea duvet cover.  (Yes, Santa and Ikea do work together at times – see our DIY Teepee post).  I was looking for something that would make it easy for the girls to make their own beds and these covers are so pretty and bright.  The multi-colored dots make our white bunk beds look so cheery.  There may be lumps of stuffed friends under the covers, but the girls have been sleeping soundly and then making their own beds in the mornings.  (Here is the post for this cute little DIY Stuffed Bunny Toy).

Flea Market Finds: Bluebirds

My Gram had collections of these happy little blue birds.  I remember them scattered on linens and dishes and tea cups.  The motif became popular in 1934 when this song was played in homes across the country.  The lyrics reminded people to look on the brighter side, stay positive and to find peace in the knowledge that happiness was on the horizon.  This must have been a welcome message for a country still struggling with the remnants of the Great Depression.  The little birds make me smile.  I recently found the lot of bluebird linens and they are for sale in our Etsy shop.  Our own collection of bluebirds reminds me of my great-grandmother and how life must have been for her when she was my age.  Some days we all need a reminder of how lucky we are.

Tights2 Ada started a school with uniforms this year. I have gotten used to it now, but the first week I cried while I hung up her colorful summer clothes on the line.  Luckily, Wovenplay makes sweet screen-printed, (more or less) uniform-compliant socks and tights.  And luckily, they are cute enough to make a child smile instead of groan when she opens socks on Christmas morning.

Flea Market Finds: Bargains!

Flea

There is pretty much nothing I like better than spending the day at the flea market.  Chris asked me what I want to do for a 40th birthday party next year and I told him I wanted to spend the day at the flea.  I wasn’t kidding.  This past weekend I got to spend a few hours in beautiful fall weather at my favorite flea, Todd Farm in Rowley Mass.  We gave the girls $2 each to spend and they were (relatively) well behaved for a few hours while we all searched for treasure.  I have an idea to give the girls a larger amount of money when they get older in order for them to buy something of value, resell it and use that money to buy something else…a bit of a financial lesson which they are in no way interested in at the moment.  Todd Farm is an outdoor market with over 200 vendors.  It is full of amazing vintage and antique finds (and only a very small amount new items, too many of which ruin a flea market in my opinion).  The grounds at Todd Farm are grassy and surrounded by trees and parking is free.  It is one of my all-time favorite spots.  Here are some of our finds from the day:
ShakerGlassBasketBeads
WaterCan
*Heavy Glass Sugar Shaker (To add to our vintage bar ware) $1

*Spotted Juice Glass (To add to my collection.  This just barely made my $3-$4 limit for juice glass purchasing, but it is in perfect shape) $4

*Wicker Trash Basket (To be painted white and put into the bathroom.  It will replace a plastic one that has seen better days) $1

*Wooden Beads (For the girls to make into necklaces) $1

*Large Galvanized Metal Watering Can (To water the plants behind the bee hives, out of my reach with the hose.  This will replace the ugly plastic one we currently use) $10

Total amount spent on these treasures: $17.  Add in the $4 we gave to the girls and the grand total comes to $21.  A bargain price for a few hours of outdoor family time and a happy Mama.
