Pretty Vintage Valentines

Hello,

I love vintage valentines. They brighten up the dull and dreary days of January after the last ornament has been safely packed away. Vintage valentines have a timeless charm and will only set you back a few dollars. You can tuck one into the corner of a mirror, scatter them around the house, or surprise someone you love (maybe leave it anonymously on their pillow). The cute rolling pin and pie valentine above sits on my kitchen counter beckoning me to bake (maybe a chocolate pie).

Have a good night!

Fun Vintage Decorating in the Bar

Hello.

I hope you're having a great day. It's been snowing tons in Boise the last few days. I had a mishap in an icy parking lot that put me behind a little in my recovery from knee surgery. So, please, please be careful out there while your driving, walking, and playing in the snow. And for goodness sakes, wear sensible shoes ("fashion" boots don't count-believe me I know)!

Here's a few pics of how I used vintage items in my fun, retro bar (formally the boring living room).

A vintage ice bucket sits next to the bar and can be filled with ice and wine or sparkling champagne to greet guests when they enter the bar. A cute black moon pillow (one of the star and moons pillows I made for presents this Christmas) sits on the red lounge chair.
A 1960s sunburst clock hangs above the overhang of the bay window and always shows 5 o'clock (it's 5 o'clock somewhere)! A "Lounge" light announces the bar is open.
An old hotel bell sits on the bar. Just ring, and the waitress will come running in to take your order. Chocolate Martini anyone?

The black iron wine rack holds a vintage silver ice bucket and a collection of cocktail shakers.

Is it 5 yet?

Take care,

Di
