Vintage Typewriters

Raise your hand if you like vintage typewriters. Now keep your hand raised if you actually use vintage typewriters…. That's what I thought. Just a few of us. It's okay, they're pretty to look at. Some people use them for decor these days. I use them for scrapbooking. And if you're super artistic, like little Cathie here, you can even find a typewriter in your favorite hue to match your favorite sweater ensemble!

I rounded up a few fun typewriters on Etsy for your shopping pleasure. Or for your viewing pleasure. Whichever your budget allows.

Etsy Favorites: Vintage Pillows

Pillows

 (1 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 5 * 6)

Pillows are one of my absolute favorite decor items. It's really easy to change the look of a living room by changing out the pillows. Lately I've been obsessed with buying vintage pillows. They have a unique look and add a happy vibe that's difficult to achieve with the modern pillows available at chain stores. So, once again, Etsy has stolen my heart with their sellers' inventory of wonderful vintage pillows. A lot of the pillows I have in my own living room are vintage from Etsy, but here a few that I have been eyeing and haven't snatched up quite yet. Oh, and I feel the need to mention that there's a really cute granny chic pillow cover available at Half Caf as well!

Etsy Favorites

October-15

One of the things I love to do is hunt for things on Etsy that have "the look."  This time around I've picked a few things from my favorites that have the Jonathan Adler look. I love how he has mastered the funky kitsch look that avoids looking tacky and always seems high style. Here are a few things that could give a little west coast hip to your home.
