The basket material is beautiful and I love that it is rolled into rope-like cords and then woven to create the basket.

Vintage Knickerbocker National Washboard

Growing up my mom had antiques all over our house, including a washboard like this Vintage Knickerbocker National Washboard. My mother had one of these vintage washboards in each of out bathrooms. She used them strictly for decorations. I swore as a child that I would never collect antiques, stating to my mother "I cannot believe that you like this junk". Now an adult myself, I am collecting antiques! Thanks Mom!



About ten years ago I started taking care of my husbands grandmother, at the time she was in her late 80's. She had an old farm house in South Dakota chalked full of antiques. She passed away a year ago in January, my father in law went out to South Dakota and collected some of her antiques for me. One of which was a glass washboard. I now have it displayed in my home. I never knew I could become such an antique lover. I am hooked!

I may have a small obsession with old antique cameras, like this Antique Camera Collection I found. I love it. It all started long ago as a child and my grandmother had a couple old cameras sitting around for us to play with. Now I think why the heck she would ever let us do that.



I found these and absolutely fell in love. This trio of vintage box cameras would be a welcome addition to any home's decor. If you simply do not have the space for it you could give it as a gift! I have a couple of old vintage cameras now on display on a shelf, in hopes of one day having a glass hutch to display them all. This trio of cameras all fold up!

Industrial Bottle Lamp - Steampunk Fixture

This Industrial Bottle Lamp is constructed from American-made black iron piping. The vintage bottle is firmly secured by custom rubber gaskets that grasp the bottle without causing damage. A low wattage bulb is used to illuminate the vintage amber bottle producing a warm ambient light, great next to your office desk or study area. A rotating faucet handle serves as a switch to turn the light on and off, how cleaver! Power is supplied by a retro style cloth covered lamp cord and plug.


The featured bottle in this picture dates between 1890 - 1905 and is very heavy duty with ornate embossing (Don't make them like this anymore!) This a Phoenix Brewery bottle from Buffalo NY and it dates back to before the prohibition. The amber glass is very heavy and makes the bulb look like a burning flame. I love the history behind this unique lamp.

Larkin Furniture Spindle Rocker

I fell in love with this Larkin Furniture Spindle Rocker because of the history behind it. This is a beautiful, rare Larkin Spindle Rocker. It was made in the USA by the Larkin Soap Company in the 1920's. This was not an item that they would sell, instead they used it as a give away item for the General Stores that sold the most soap.



Even with some wear this rocker is still beautiful. The arms are made out of veneer wood and the back and seat are made out of a plywood type of wood, but the spindles are made out of solid wood. Typically, these chairs were thought to not be very well made, since they were largely given away for free, or at a very low cost with the purchase of Larkin's soap, but this one has proven that theory wrong. Made in the 1920's and still rocking, it must be very strong. This would be great in the living room or even in a nursery.

Antique Pine Dresser

This old Antique Pine Dresser reminds me of the one we had in our bathroom growing up. The dresser we had looked exactly like this one, only we cut out the top of ours and dropped a sink in it. We loved having a dresser as a vanity sink area. The two drawers below that were left after utilizing the top one with the sink, we used the bottom two drawers for towels and the other was used for all of the hair products {with five daughters and only one son, there was a lot of hair products, hair pony tail holders and other odds and ends}.



This lovely Antique Pine Dresser dates back to the early 1900's. It has been restored and painted by the seller in their shop to give it an aged and distressed look.  The vibrant red paint with the natural wood showing through is absolutely amazing, I love the color.  This beautiful dresser measures 36 1/4" Wide x 17 1/2" Deep x 36 1/2"H.

Tree of Life Wall Decor

Oh my goodness this is a beauty, although this may not be retro this is definitely awesome! This Tree of Life wall decoration is stunning. Measuring 18.5" in diameter, it is a perfect addition to your bedroom, hallway or living room wall. This is brushed steel with a clear protective coat. Other coloring options are available, you will just need to contact the seller of this amazing piece of work.



This is plasma cut wall art. Plasma cutting is a process that is used to cut steel and other metals of different thicknesses (or sometimes other materials) using a plasma torch. In this process, an inert gas (in some units, compressed air) is blown at high speed out of a nozzle; at the same time an electrical arc is formed through that gas from the nozzle to the surface being cut, turning some of that gas to plasma. The plasma is sufficiently hot to melt the metal being cut and moves sufficiently fast to blow molten metal away from the cut.

Deep Sea Wall Decals

Ok, so I found these really cute Deep Sea Wall Decals for a childs bedroom. I love the idea of decals because they can be put on and removed. When I had my second child I hand painted his bedroom as an under the sea theme. I painted the whole bottom section of the wall sand with sea weed and shells. Painting on fish of all different shapes and sizes and colors. I spent a couple days on the project.



I wish that I would have used decals like these, because it would have saved me a lot of time. Decals are so much fun for kids, this set comes with seagrass and coral, lobsters, jellyfish and so much more. This set can be customized to fit your space and budget, by contacting the seller in a message. the decal covers 120"W by 70"H of wall space when applied as shown. The dark blue seaweed is 60"H by 22"W.
