Out Of Control



Oly smokes!  This past winter of collecting and storing has left me in somewhat of a quagmire!  I've no more room to store anything in the house, uggh!!  In fact, I've now begun storing items in the back of my truck!  I've a sweet vintage train set in 2 boxes in hidden in the confines of my canopy.  I also have a box of vintage Grateful Dead books and a very cool drawing of actor Sam Elliot, lol.

I've just packed a huge Dell computer box with a ton of knick knacks and glasswares.  The items shown below would not fit in the box.


I've still a mantel to clear as we're rearranging and updating the decor in the room.  


Most, but not all the items are vintage and some you may have seen in my shop.


I hope to get pics taken of these straggler items like the old bakelite and brass clock, figurine planters, old cigar box, the vintage Davy Crockett collectors cards, and get them listed.


Need a circa 1910 compass??  I've got one for ya, but as you can see it has a crack in it's crystal.


Feeling a little bit looney? How bout an old "Looney Bin" placard?


I hope to have this awesome solid copper "Miner" figurine listed, but trying to figure out what I did with his handstaff.

Well, I should be looking instead of sitting here posting.  Hoping you have a great week of vintagicity hunting or whatever it is that strikes your fancy!!

Sweet Vintage

Here's a shoutout to a new pal who owns and operates Esty shop...





Christina has been a member since 2008 and is stocking her shop with some cool vintage finds.  I've listed a few samples of her great finds in hopes to intice you into visiting her shop.  One of my fave pieces is this 1972 New Haven Quartz Owl wall clock by the Burwood Company.



Another is this 3 piece Maurice of California serving set in a beautiful turquoise glaze.

Beautiful color!

This sunflower candy dish is sure to appeal to those who appreciate the bright and vivid colors the natural flower has to offer.


Lastly, as I don't wanna give away all her great vintage finds is this awesomely crazed acorn shaped dish


I love how the color transends from a yellowish at top down to a deep avocado green at the bottom, uniquely beautiful.


I hope you'll stop in for a browse as I'm sure you'll enjoy Christina's vintage treasures and who know's, you may find something you just can't live without?
