I had a banner day at the Quechee antique store. I was picking up a few odds and ends. Actually, I was picking up a wedding band, which is neither an odd nor an end, and is sweet as can be (in addition to being a platinum steal!).
On my way to the jewelry case I found some of my new favorite things: Glass bottles and tins and pony shoes, oh my! And a 1950s cocktail dress that fits like a glove.
Everything looked so great together. As they were wrapping and ringing me up, I couldn't wait to get home to unwrap and photograph. Once again, our painfully creamsicle colored dining room transforms into a divinely muted color when photographed in the afternoon light. Frankly, I think it's magic that these photos aren't a blurry mess. I like magic.
Smith Corona Typewriter (perfectly usable for $30!)
Added to the collection of bottles... (the little blue one says 3-in-one potion!...why oh why do we package everything in plastic.)
Plus some old tobacco tins. Pictured here with all of the pony shoes because they just seem to go together like peas & carrots.
If only I had been able to find a "Quechee is GORGE-ous" Tshirt, the day would have been complete.
