Breaking Even on this Manic Monday


Once upon a time my wife Lea and I had insurance claims filed on each of our vehicles at the same time due to events / damages that occurred...wait for it...when we weren't even in our cars!

1) My car = wrecked by a valet driver
2) Lea's car 'hit and run' while parked on our street

Dag! Right?!

So we've been a one car family for a couple of weeks while one and then the other car has been repaired.

But the show must go on!

That's right. I'm still managing to fluff the booth at Paris on Ponce and the whole shop looks beautiful. It's super great to be a part of such a spectacular vintage family. It feels good when I walk in the doors, there's a vibrant and inspiring buzz in the air there and cool things are happening!

THE LEAST OF WHICH ISN'T FREE MIMOSAS ON THE WEEKENDS!

Oh and a BLOWOUT SALE!

Yes - there were mimosas at the shop all weekend and our mascot Baudelaire was holding down the bar - er fort!



The weekend was lovely. In addition to vintage loveliness, there was live music - at least twice and festivals and Streets Alive and...and...and...fun was had. To be sure! See:

...and we finally get my car back tomorrow and all will be right with the world.

Stay tuned for more new items all the time. Right now the list is long and my space is full of ridiculous deals.

What'cha need...
A vanity?
Ottoman?
Dresser?
Mid Century Modern corner wall book case / wall unit?
Vintage Dinette set?
Original 1950s Italian watercolor?
Framed 1950s art posters?
A dozen or more ceramic ashtrays?
Retro bar ware?
1960s Teak rolling bar cart?
1950s Flat bottom wine glasses?
1950s Matching walnut bed side lamps?

Something special for flowers?
Vintage textile spools (with which I am obsessed)
3 mid-cen coffee tables? Yea - tapered legs and all and two of them are under $75! Gah.

Yeah - I have all that. Plus.

So I hereby give you permission to GO SHOPPING!!!

Have fun!

Yours,
Sarah
