shop update....for the room you live in

the living room in my house is truly lived in.

on any given day it can be a  library,  dining room,  office,  playroom and yes, sometimes even shop shipping and storage room.

today i pulled together a few new items coming to the shop and a few that are already there.  they work well in this type of multi purpose 'living room'


for movie night or to simply look like a professional movie buff..

vintage movie and slide projectors

to write that best seller or to just jot notes to friends...

vintage olivetti  and olympia typewriters

to bring the outside in and decorate the walls

framed antique botanicals

to light up a dark corner and plan your next adventure...

illuminated mid century globe

a necessary evil,  might as well make it look good

the rotary telephone with it's wonderful brrring

when you can't afford the original masterpiece

a nicely framed print does wonders

and of course vintage books!! i have them stacked on the table,  in the bookcase, by a chair

for inspiration

for reading or dreaming

most of the above are in the shop, some of the others will be coming soon...

Have a wonderful week

Sue
