wonky style gift wrapping from scraps

No seriously, I am so into the holidays. I normally don’t even do the gift thing but this year I am magically finding perfect little giving opportunities for the people in my life. But the best part for me is the gift wrapping – that is where the fun is to be had. I have a ridiculous studio that is so fabulous and it is filled with things to pull from for any project. I am an organized, focused hoarder. I love, love, love the personal label maker –  so I know where everything is right now. Easy! Buy the bins, buy the label maker – make it your New Years Resolution. okay that is another post let us focus on the wrapping of the gifts. This was so much Fun – yes capital F!

Flea Market Finds

Today was the parking lot flea market at the Trove in Scottsdale. The tall one was selling mid century furniture, I was there as support. Unfortunately it was a rare day of rain in Arizona. It was cool and felt lovely but was not such a good thing for wood. I did roam around and pick up a few bargin finds. The short one loved playing all day in the back of the pick-up who would have guessed that one? She is creative! And now for my finds:

Vintage Modern meets guest blogger

Today – A guest blogger invites viewers to shop for vintage modern furniture – read on . . . . .
If your looking for Vintage furniture pieces from industrial to danish to deco check out my booth at The Trove in Scottsdale. I just started this month. Pretty much a bit of everything but focusing specifically on furniture. I have a warehouse full of stuff that I will be rotating through the space. I have Plycraft, Knoll, Herman Miller, Teak, Danish, Wakefield, Primitive, 40’s 50’s 60’s 70’s and 80’s. If I would have it in my house… I buy it, but since my house is full. . . I sell it! I tend to get the things people need like coffee tables, lamps, end tables, sofas, dining tables and chairs, lounge chairs, pairs and singles, credenzas, bedside tables, desks and a few kitchen items. I also have a soft spot for coffee mugs and vintage thermos. The space is less than ten by ten so check back often. Most of my stuff I am selling I have in a storage warehouse and I will take it to the Trove as I get it ready to go. Thanks for looking!!!
