Flickr Favorites
1. 1970s mod tin coasters, 2. 1960s Grindley "Endeavour" jug, 3. Turi design "Lotte" egg cup, 4. 1960s flower print linen tablecloth
Since I'm going vintagethis week, I searched Flickr for vintage of course. Lots of great stuff but all these pictures are from the same person. I think these would look rather rad together in any kitchen. I'm particularly in love with the jug!
Any vintage flickr fav's you want to share? :)
And this lovely mosaic show my very favorite fabric! :)
If you like to play this week, make your mosaic and add a link to your blogpost (NOT your blog please) or Flickr in Mister Linky (click on the button below and fill in your name with the link to your blogpost or Flickr picture)...

ReplyDeletewell, what do you know... it was vintage and I was looking at green vibrant fruit! ahahahaha This happens because I saw your mosaic in flickr and I went and looked for my pics before coming here and checking your post....and now everybody goes vintage and I have posted on the website, flickr and twitter, my green mosaic. LOL sorry. I actually like a lot when you give themes... but I should pay more attention.
ReplyDeleteI shall go now and stand in a corner and think about it LOL
I am wondering why is it that you are going vintage???
Beautiful mosaic! I will try with something vintage this time!
ReplyDeleteHaha Mariana, perhaps I'm going vintage because I feel vintage! LOL :)
ReplyDeleteYou can play any theme you would like - I often prepare my fav's ahead of time and I know that others do too so it's not always easy to work with a theme. But I do like theme's a lot! :)
Great collection, I like vintage too especially when it's a bit worn out! Sorry I missed the theme too, Florcita make room in that corner for me ;)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I'm loving that egg cup. I remember that, when I was little, I had a vintage egg cup with an extra little groove to hold a very small salt shaker. I wish I still had it!
ReplyDeleteOh my god, I must be very old, I remember that designs standing on every table ! now again very beautiful!

ReplyDeleteI so love it. my great grand mother had a very lovely old fashioned kitchen when I was very little and she only had blue and white things. it was so fresh and elegant. It makes me think of her and I love remembering this anecdote :)
ReplyDeletemerci about that .

ReplyDeleteoooh you're right, that jug is fantastic! lovely finds :)
ReplyDeletevintage is something so on top right now, but there is something in it, something that makes us love it, I collect vintage pottery and deco items and can't help where I see vintage jewellery...
