Introducing 107 Vintage


Just recently I met Diana,
 who has started a wonderful new online store and blog,
107 Vintage
As one of my new sponsors,
 I'd like to introduce you to her and her web store, 107 Vintage;
a place full of beautiful and unique items, old and new.


Here's a word from Diana:

 "Please visit our on-line Vintage Store that's full of one-of-a-kind finds and vintage inspired products that will age your home gracefully; home decor with a past. Blending remnants from the past with today's trendy styles. A unique decor that reflects an updated, stylish home."



"We are a Mother, Daughter team that design, antique, create and work together. We get caught up in searching for things that add charm to the home-things that age your home gracefully. They remind us us of a more gentle time, a family member long gone but certainly not forgotten. Timeworn but not tattered, China chipped but not shattered. Silver with a warm patina glowing because many hands have had the chance to hold it. We hope you have the time to enjoy life and all the little things that make it special."

Here are just a few of the items that you can find at the store;

French Apron



Authentic German Grain Sacks



Wire plate and utensil holders



Metal Cake Stands


and take a look at this fabulous one of a kind antique table;
the patina is just amazing!


Hope you'll drop by Diana's new blog 
that chronicles her home, design business, and life,
then also head over to the shop.

And be watching for new Spring Merchandise coming soon.
I know I've found several things that I've been looking for...
see ya there!

The Hall Bath Reveal... sort of

Well, we're back in the Hall Bathroom today,
so I can share the rest of the re-do with you.


I have boxes and boxes of old original framed prints. I know, I know...I collect lot's of things. I'm not 100% sure on this, but I believe this print is an R. Atkinson Fox from his English Cottage Series. I have several others in the same series, and I just adore them. They are from the mid twenties, and it's in it's original frame (if anyone has info on this print, please let me know)



I rescued this little Chippendale shelf 
from the neighbors trash heap a few years ago,
and it's been in here for the last 8 years.
It was freshened up a little with paint and some "new" treasures.

I'd like to have a small cabinet for this spot,
but for now I'll keep this.






I just love "cottage", and can't seem to get away from it.








My rosy chamber pot holds extra TP.



I have two of these gorgeous old mirrors,
anyone know what they're called style wise?
Are they shaving mirrors?



Originally, I had wanted to hang several of my old birdcages,
but the room just wasn't large enough.



This one is filled with two old celluloid mirrors,
an antique crocheted purse, and a birdie in a transferware cup.




this is an antique print that I had wanted to use in the wall gallery,
but just didn't "fit".






This print and old chalk sconce are on the opposite side of the gallery wall.
Another English Cottage print with an old chalk kitty asleep on the sconce.










And this vintage hooked rug that I wanted to keep with the color scheme,
love the florals with the taupe.



...and then I have this old chandy that needs to be rewired.
I'm hoping I can get hubbs to help me see this installed.
It's so pretty, but half of the crystals are off,
and they all need to be cleaned.
maybe for my Birthday coming up...



I'm totally in love with this paint color;
Behr 730C-2 Sandstone Cove
It has a wonderful taupe-y gray undertone,
but still very neutral...
it's making me want to paint the rest of the house this color,
oh yikes!


 I'm having a quickie Follower's Give Away for
Valentine's Day.
