While we're still experiencing the grey skies of winter here, there are little flashes of promise, occasional hints,  a day of sunshine followed by a day of flurries. A warm nearly balmy day,  with a plummet to bone chilling the next. Such is February. Still-- I love this month because of the mix, the change of days from one to the next, full of surprises and tumult. It makes me so aware that Spring is up ahead...nearly within sight.  Here are a few new vintage listings inspired by anticipation and excitement for Spring:
art pottery swan planter/vase from the 40s, fabulous vintage laboratory glass storage bottles with ground stoppers, a charming handmade vintage apron covered with blue roses, and a sweet little bouquet of vintage millinery fabric flowers
I'm wishing you a beautiful day-- and give yourself some extra love for Valentines Day!

I have to admit I've been taking a bit of a break posting of late-- it's the post holiday thaw.  Taking a little longer to decompress, catch my breath and begin anew. I've just recently listed a few fresh vintage finds in 5gardenias. Looking toward spring, feeling the urge to lighten up and celebrate with some color and a nod to Valentines Day with a couple of porcelain sweethearts dressed in cobalt and white, some charming old antique glass and clay marbles,  a pair of sturdy and vibrant vintage mixing bowls, and a beautifully delicate antique ecru lace doily.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend and a happy February!
