It's After Labor Day So Let's Go Shopping


Regular readers of this blog will remember how much I enjoy visiting other people's Etsy shops, even if I can't afford to buy anything.  Today we'll continue our foraging into vintage goodies, and start with the sublime Sophie Lady De Paris, based in France.
Sophie Lady De Paris

Sophie sells a variety of beautiful vintage items ranging from Victorian to Art Deco, and includes fashion accessories for men and women, linens, and home decor.  She offers 1 week delivery for U.S. orders, and is well worth a visit.  One of my favorite items (and definitely one I cannot afford) is this beautiful 1850s inkwell.  Just gorgeous.  Click on the shop name below the link to find it.  Unfortunately, the sale noted in the photo will be over.
Dusty Digger Lise
Next we're paying a visit to a particular favorite of mine, Dusty Digger Lise, where you find tons of paper ephemera.  If you're a collage artist like myself, you'll find lots of things that can be used in your artwork.  I have my eye on a few things myself but I'm not telling.  You can check out one of her items by clicking on the name below the photo.  I thought I'd show you this item because of Lauren Bacall's recent death.





Sueellen's Flair
Next we're on to Sueellen's Flair, a fabulous vintage hat and home decor shop run by Katy in Texas.  Her hats are wonderful, as are the vintage decor items she also sells.  This French candelabra is particularly fine, and you can view it by clicking on the name below the photo. Timeless styles abound in this shop and you'll love your visit.
Treasure Picker

Our final shop visit today is to Treasure Picker, run by Dot in Florida.  She bills her shop as "history you can touch," and you'll find jewelry, accessories, cast iron goodies, and paper ephemera.  There's lots of cool finds here - check out one of them by clicking on the shop name below the photo.  These ducks are so cute!

That's it for the day.  Tune in next week for my next shopping trip.
later,
