Patina vintage on etsy

This Italian carved shelf has sold and is heading off to the new buyer.

What a great idea to do a wall with many small shelves like this one
and place either candles on each, or various small framed photos and
artwork.

Patina Vintage

We ship worldwide and have buyers all
over the world....

Spring brings new little fawns to the garden..
Passing through with their mothers.

The mother jumped the fence.. but the little one
couldn't yet make it over, and ran back and forth
until I could open the gate, so she could join her
mother on the other side of the fence.

Soon they will return to devour the garden!!!

Some of the many lovelies recently purchased by
my customers that are off to new homes....

a morning walk - Postcards from my island

I love my island...........
I live and work on an island in Puget Sound.
Bainbridge Island is just a 35 minute ferry
ride from downtown Seattle, yet another world.

This spring has been so gray. So today,
I felt i just needed some fresh air and a
good walk.

Here are some photos of my world.
My morning walk.....
Yes, it's raining!!!!!

out and about...Spring vintage market on Bainbridge Island

Earlier this month I attended the Spring vintage Market at Christmas House - one of my favorite island cottage's filled with vintage and holiday items that the owner's collect throughout the year.
