Recent vintage finds on Etsy include a mild-mannered feline with emerald green eyes, a cream-colored silk dress bedecked in gold sequins, a nearly century-old guide to Jiu Jitsu, and a dictionary twenty-thousand words strong. Who says antiquing has to be a snooze?

Such great finds! That dress is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI am DYING over that dress!
ReplyDeleteLOVE that dress, it caught my eye right away.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: how do you make that picture grid? I've been trying to figure out how to make one for some time now, but despite my (what I think are quite advanced =P) Googling skills, I haven't had any luck.
Ooh, good stuff! Time Life Nature library books are my fave:)
ReplyDeleteLove the vintage dress! So nice meeting you a few weeks ago!

Oh my gosh - the Edwardian Guide to Jiu Jitsu is hilarious! I too am in love with this beautiful and lady-like dress! What awesome finds, Shoko - they brightened my day!
ReplyDeleteThe vintage dress is divine!
ReplyDeleteLove all of your finds.
The dress is amazing, I know - if only I had an occasion to wear it!
ReplyDeleteRaquel, I make them using Photoshop. I was totally lost before taking Blogshop, but the collage-making isn't too complicated. Do you have a Photoshop-savvy friend in LA who could give you some pointers?
Christina, was that a few weeks ago already? So great to meet you, too!
such gorgeous finds. I love vintage books and those photos are amazing.
ReplyDeletewe definitely have copies of THE SEA and THE FISHES at our house!! i wish that emerald-eyed cat was UP IN HERE as well...
ReplyDeleteWhat a great collection! I love the jiu jitsu book. Thanks for adding my wall hanging.
