How on Earth do you find so much amazing stuff?! I seem to be endlessly hunting in my local charity shops and I find treasures like these very, very rarely.
Oh my! That embroidered birch piece must have been a hot item back in the day, because a friend of mine has it hanging on his wall too. Only he hung it backwards (and perhaps upside-down?) because he liked it better. It kind of looks like a landscape freakout, which is very cool!
i love the embroidery wall, it's perfect! ps - we are now linking to you on our sidebar under blogs we love:) http://commonthreadskingston.blogspot.com/
I believe in doing what you love and what is right. I am a self-taught textile artist, mother of two, and a bit of a rebel. I live and work in downtown Albany, NY while dreaming of the coast of Maine.
You must live in the land of the BEST thrift shops ever!!! Mine just have broken Dora the Explorer toys and acrylic Bill Cosby sweaters...
ReplyDeleteOoooh, you have some very nice things here... My favorite is the little green purse but your wall of embroideries is very cool too!
ReplyDeleteHope you are well. :)

ReplyDeleteI think I just live in the land where folks don't know what they have and sell their stuff for wicked cheap.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I definitely rely most heavily on garage/yard/tag sales, most of which I find on Craigslist. I'll write a post soon outlining my technique ;)
