THE BEST GIFTS!

it's so great to have a lovely daughter and friends know the things you love and give you those things as gifts...i have received some of my favorite items for my home these last couple of months and i am smitten seeing them displayed..

my daughter amazed me with this super cute framed embroidered deer art by artist YetiKat from Hand Made Store On a Bike..go check her site out...she has the cutest frames with owls and other woodland creatures as well other hand made items, which she sells on her bike!..

i actually have had my eye out on the framed art and to my surprise my wonderful daughter got me one with her own allowance..the wording on the art say something else then "don't mess with me" which Zoe got custom made..and the frame is spray painted to finish the look...i so love it!



then my wonderful friends Rox and Noe know how much i love owls and gave me the cutest handmade wooden one as well as this super cute 70's yarn knit art which i'm on the prowl for the perfect frame for it...thank you guys!





i love receiving gifts like this and am loving how much more my house keeps getting filled with the neatest handmade vintage / vintage inspired items!

i'm looking forward to this weekend although raining i have lots of crafty things plus store update to finally complete i love rainy day's for this...

EBAY AUCTIONS

hello! hope you are all having a relaxing Sunday..i am! on this rainy one in beautiful California..my weekend was a great one Zoe went to a sleepover on Friday and i prepared for a Bella Vintage photo-shoot for Saturday..then i had a great time with good freinds at an art opening for an amazing artist (pictures to come)..it was nice having a social night out and getting a break from my responsibilities to my small business which i only truly have the weekends & nights to tend too along with single mother-hood..it had been a while so thanks to my kiddo-sitter!

i finally am starting e-bay auctions once again for all of you vintage loving gals whom like the bidding wars..fingers crossed, which really means late nights the following items will go live midnight tonight latest Monday night!

i'm starting with 10 auctions for now but will eventually work up to have a steady 20 thru 40 weekly auctions..it's a matter of time..

here's what's to come:

THRIFT FINDS!

i so very much enjoyed my trip to Vegas..still recovering trying to get into the swing of work i pretty much have been coming home and passing out early catching up on zzzz's..i'm off kilter!

as i mentioned before i had a great buying trip along with le boyfreind..he racked up on some really cool outer wear..a great 70's sherpa suede vest, 70's western suede snap button jacket, 70's leather bomber jacket, 70's quilted vest & a 70's velvet fitted italian blazer..oh and not to mention 5 glasses / aviators from the 60's & 70's..needless to say he was a happy trooper..the boys tend to have a harder time finding quality vintage goods in the thrift.

i found great finds for the home along with more owl stuff to add to my collection..i got a great 70's owl art on wooden frame, owl candle holder, vintage 70's yarn in brown & yellow AAAAAND the best memorabilia from my child hood ever ..original PAC-MAN coffee mugs from the 80's!

i collect vintage coffee mugs beacuse i love consuming lots of coffee and lots of tea! another collection...it's hard

hope you all have a lovely thursday...i'm on tomorrow already!

ETSY FAVORITES

another round of my Esty favorites for the week...i am slowly decorating my home and a few post ago i posted some great finds from an estate..i am still searching which brings me to some items i'm eying on Etsy..

i found these adorable smelling sachets to put in the rest room from mireio

i really want this wall clock..i really love the colors and the eyes on the owls..I WANT THIS from happy day vintage

i think these would be great for storage or even to use for my next trip..these would definitely stand out from the sea of black suit cases in the airport! happy day vintage

i ran into this d.i.y. 70's candle maker ADORABLE..looks like allot of fun violets and grace

how cute is this mod big eyed boys print..hard to find in thrift stores shop 66

although these are canisters for the kitchen i think these would be great to store buttons or thread bobbins etc..The Cottage Cheese

i love this embroidered basket for bobbins, the colors is what caught my eye yesstreen

owl desk set Vintage Fun land

i had a black iron butterfly magazine rack that i've had for 12 years..it's finally succumbed to it's death after much abuse..love this bright yellow one..would fit right in my living room with my matching yellow chair Fish bone Deco

lastly my dream couch..more yellow..i love color and ideally i love this living room and the paintings on the wall..good inspiration..the teal walls are also great..to bad i don't have the $650 to spend right now! the vintage supply co

more updates this week for bella vintage..finally got my domain name done and business license..growing the business a long process..

have a great Friday!
