Flock O Birds and a Little Lane Table

Check out this gorgeous mid century flock of birds wall art I found!



And.....this little Lane end table with dovetailing. It was just sitting there looking pathetic, waiting for someone to come along and save it. It's a wreck but I've already started sanding it and it's going to be beautiful. I'll post after pictures and I think it will be for sale in my Etsy shop.

Here Piggy Piggy

I love Pigs! Not bacon, pigs. Yes, it's true....I think they're cute, smart, and lovable. If I did not live in Los Angeles I'd keep one! Hmmm, how to live in the city and still keep a farm? I'm working that out in my head.
I remember my grandma's farm in Missouri when I was little. Ahhhh.....

Check out this adorable vintage (and Mid Century-esque if I do say) pig candle from Hallmark. I'm guessing it's from the 80's. It was tough for me to list but I need to stop keeping everything I find for my store!

I've had the hardest time concentrating today and staying focused.
Ugh, Mondays. So.. instead of forcing it I took a break to scan ... what else? Mid Century.
Check out these vintage mid century home interiors.

Happy Friday - What I'm Loving Today

Nerd alert! Nerd alert! My geekery is showing!

I'm obsessed! How cute are these retro inspired computer accessories? I had to have the blue robot USB. So unnecessary but it's so cute. I'd smile every time I see it, so it's worth it right?
