New This Week: Copenhagen, Industrial, Regency.

Some recent finds, all available in my shop this week.....


This is my favorite Lane design. It's a somewhat rare design because it was not mass produced like the others. The Copenhagen collection has such a beautiful floating quality about it and I love the tall brass feet with cut out edge.  

I love industrial modern design but can't work it into my house which is predominantly danish modern.  So, I just admire it from afar.  This lamp is near mint. It will look so cool in the right space.

And I have its clip-on version...




These would be so sweet in a Regency setting.  The pair could nicely finish a bed or a fabulous couch. 

Store anything in this wise guy from cookies, to buttons, flowers and more.  Missing a top but still so cute. 


10 draper antique letterpress cabinet. Perfect for a jewelry maker to store the findings.  Cool industrial, steampunk vibe.

Separation Issues, Vintage Style

I'm addicted to vintage. I have a hard time selling some, okay most, of my vintage finds.  The idea is always to keep my Etsy shop fresh with new items weekly.  However, what usually happens is I find cool things, can't part with them and somehow work them into my house.  It's getting ridiculous.  I have a hard time separating myself from these fabulous finds.

Case in point: Recently acquired 1950's desk lamp....


I came across this beauty a couple weeks ago at a thrift store up north.  It was supposed to be for my shop. Where is it now?  On my desk!  I was using a turquoise blue Tensor lamp that I absolutely love but that's in my closet for now while this lamp enjoys some time in my office.  Ugh!  

Case 2: Owl-shaped wine rack......


I found this on Saturday.  Even though I have a hanging wine rack in my kitchen and an amazing honeycomb shaped rosewood mid century wine rack in the dining room, I want to keep this!  Give me a break - where will it go?

Case 3: Atomic Lamp.....


You know how I feel about mid-century lamps.  Obsessed!  But really, I need another lamp? I have no room anywhere!  I already have a stash of mid century things in my garage for "later" ....."when I have a bigger house".  Did I just admit that?!

Please tell me you can relate to hoarding vintage and mid century pieces!
