Dumpster dive find...
















...thanks to my Mom :).
She saw these shutters in
the dumpster behind her work
& snagged them for me.
Now i can use them to
hang my extra magazines
or pictures. Love free stuff!
Also, found the little 50's hairpin
legged coffee table at the
thrift store...not sure about it's
placement in the room yet, but
it was too cute to pass up.

Beautiful little shop...
















...in Chinatown. I went here to pick up belts for the designer & couldn't believe how beautiful the little shop was. The woman who owns it was amazing as well & makes beautiful shoes, bags & belts with a few antique machines. I just wish i had my actual camera with me because these pictures don't do it justice, but they'll have to do.
