Whimsical and unique - Eva Armisen

Eva Armisen will be having a show in our gallery starting November 30, 2012.  More details in a few days time, but for the moment I wanted to show you some of her products featuring her lovely work.

IPhone covers.. .

And wonderful notebooks - 

Be Prepared!

It may not be raining today but these umbrellas are good in the sun too, SPF 100!  Splash through the future's puddles with style and glee.  All at $30.  Nice.

Van Gogh's Irises, Degas' Ballerinas and Le Tour Eiffel 

Tiffany Stained Glass, Peacock Plumage and Chrysanthemum

I know this is not a brolly (it's a vintage library cart) but I just wanted to show you all what I've been working on restoring.  On the cart are two planters to hang on your wall, inside or out.

Happy Voting Day to all!!

Time and how to measure it.

I find a clock very useful when measuring time.  Oh look, here's one.  A beautiful wind-up banjo clock with a clipper ship motif.  (Go Clippers!)

This will work too.  A plug-in vintage Four Roses Whiskey clock.

And here's a perpetual calendar - this particular style with winding toggles is known as a "country calendar."  On next week's show we'll discover how to measure distance (perhaps find out what is a country mile).  But isn't that like measuring a measurement?  Oh, well, time flies.  We now know how long but not how far.  I'm beginning to confuse myself now, I better stop.

Stuff I've been working on.

I just finished restoring this vintage mechanic's step stool. $120

I love libraries.  There I said it.  However, there are so few with card catalogues.  Now you make amends with these...$60ea.

And finally this vintage three drawer filing cabinet. $52.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

It's beginning to feel a lot like Halloween.

What about these Woof & Poof characters?

A pumpkin man?  Yes, in his dapper scarf!

Which Witch? Why this one.

Hoo dat?

Vintage Italian Leather Luggage

Now, I love to travel.  I always imagine traveling with a certain panache.  Well, I've found the perfect luggage at least.

The insides are in immaculate condition, unused.

These bags are made in Italy with Cagiva Combination Locks. Just hearing the click of these locks sends a shiver up my spine.
