I Shop My Palette...Do You?

 Dreamy afternoons spent with pretty thrifted goodies are rare these days for me...

but over the weekend I was able to have a little "me" time spent toodling with some recent finds.

I often laugh at my finds once I get them home; I have an unruly knack of shopping in color themes.

If you know me, you'll know I love vintage items.

I enjoyed this little vignette of thrifted finds a whole bunch, as it truly defines my personal taste in colors.

My home decorating color palette tends to venture into the:

sky blues

fawn browns

lichen

worn vintage mustard

pinky peach

cream

&

greige

Random right?

But it's what I like....& I can't stop liking it....so....I guess I'm stuck with it!

When I'm shopping for clothing....well....that can often be a different story.

Although when I think about it,

my closet tends to be a reflection of similar versions of these colorways;

blue being the base of almost every outfit with jeans for comfort!

;)

 Well anyway,

I will now be working on loading up these little goodies to shelves & walls....with a few going to Etsy & a few heading to Grandiflora.

(see links to the right on the blog)

I found quite a lot of pretties (not all are pictured) so it will take some effort to do this!

I love it however, & am looking forward to the challenge.

There were:

Little vintage pots for fresh flowers, or trailing plants....

 ...sweet little prints to hide in those tiny tucked away spaces throughout ones' home...

&

most importantly....a little birdie box for keeping tidbits & treasures.

I love working with items which have a past....I also love to mix those items with new things to create a well balanced look.

A little bit past & a little bit present.

:)

How about you?

Do you love vintage like I do?

Are you strictly vintage style?

Do you cringe at the thought of decorating with vintage?

What about new trends: mod, bright, pastels?

What about color palette?

Does your closet echo your home?

Just curious....I always enjoy hearing your thoughts; long or short!

:)

Hope you had a great weekend....& hoping your week is filled with golden sunlit days, crisp nights, and cozy times with loved ones!
