Lovin' Leopold!

Lately I have been a bit obsessed with buying vintage children's books. The idea was to use them in art projects, but I often have time letting stuff like this go!

This week I will show you some of my recent faves!

Leopold the See-through Crumbpicker by James Flora - how can you not love a book with a title like that?!?!





This one was published in 1961 and features the most wonderful colorful (and black and white) illustrations!





A compelling story involving cops & crumbpickers and more! Lots of action with everyone's hands up in the air!!

It's Curtains for Me!!

Curtains - away for the weekend & Curtains - as in drapes!!

First of all let me show you the darling draperies I have up for sale right now. Perfect for your little one's room, but I won't be insulted if they are repurposed into something fabulous!!!

Nursery Rhymes!!








Giddy Up Little Doggy!!

Economic Transportation Anyone??

With the ridiculous gas prices these days, I have seriously been contemplating whizzing around in a cute little Vespa!!

Well, I might go with a hybrid instead...but I know I would look simply fabulous in this vintage Italian Scooter Helmet! It comes complete with original MOD flower power decals...so sweet!


Look great, Save the Planet...you can find it on ebay!

Under or Over??

This slip is so fabulous that I think it might be a waste to wear it under your dress. Lined, so could be worn equally as well as a pretty little summer dress!!

Gorgeous coral color, made by Gossard Artemis...and a size 34. You can find this vintage lovely on ebay right now!!

Tea-Timer Anyone??

Just photographed the most adorable Black Americana tea towels and had to share. I know these are politically incorrect these days...but the graphics are so darn cute!
