Happy February Lovecats! I’m not sure why January felt like it lasted an entire year, but it’s over now and soon it will be summer and we’ll all be saying I CAN’T BELIEVE IT’S HALLOWEEN ALREADY and then it’s NYE and BOOM! The year is over. How does it even work anymore? I don’t know… …
I have an area in my new office that is desperately in need of a vintage animal statue at least 24″ tall. And since I decided that the other day, I’ve been OBSESSIVELY searching for the perfect fit. Now, if I were say, looking for a bear or eagle wood carved sculpture, I could literally …
Once or twice a week the husband and I go exploring in our new land and last week it was to Cedar Glen, which much like everything else, is about a five minute drive, and it is adorable. We stopped at the local hardware store to pick up a few supplies {snow shovel, gloves, kitchen …
This was the sewing machine I learned to sew on… well not this exact one but my mom’s Singer Genie 353. It is the most basic of sewing machines yet my favorite by far and has worked tirelessly for my mom and me since the 70’s when she acquired it. A few years ago, after …
As promised, here are the decor pieces/photos I shot the last time I was at The Sherman Oaks Antique Mall. Though they used to have more furniture than they keep in stock now, the home decor finds are ridiculously awesome. Seriously, I could go there every day and buy 75% of their inventory …but alas, …
A few weeks ago while visiting my mom she told me she had come across an old folder of magazine tears that she had saved …since the 70’s. We’ll get beyond the fact that she still had them 36 years later, in near-perfect condition, because we all save things, right? But in this particular case …
Originally Published on: May 17, 2011 My lack of extra time and propensity for perfection are keeping me from finishing my office makeover in a timely fashion but since I’ve been teasing you with the idea that you will see it soon, I feel the need to show you a few things I’ve done in …
My trips to the Sherman Oaks Antique Mall are becoming more of regular occurrence instead of a once in a while treat . . . which the husband may or may not be happy about, but there is just SO MUCH TO SEE in there …and EVEN MORE TO BUY, and it’s impossible to take …
I’ve been sort of lusting over all the long pendant necklaces from my Neck Candy post and last week while perusing The Sherman Oaks Antique Mall again, I spotted this amazing gold circles necklace with little dangling plum colored stones and what could have most possibly been the inspiration behind Theodora & Callum’s Majorca Necklace …

My mom has a slew of filled-to-the-brim boxes of goodies in her garage that she has saved for me over the years, waiting for me to settle into a place long enough to hand them down. Thanks Mom! Over the last year, she has been able to do so because we’re finally in a home …
How amazing is this vintage charm bracelet? …except it wasn’t originally made for everyday fashion but is traditional jewelry for a man’s lederhosen outfit. It’s made of small wild boar tusks, antlers and rabbits foot for good luck! Charivari (which mans “jumbled up”) is the Bavarian name for a chain – originally only worn by …
One of the perks of working for an art dealer is getting to look through the copious amount of auction catalogues that are sent to us throughout the year {which I posted about it here in 2008}. Many are for contemporary art, because that’s the business we are in, but some …some are for furniture, …
While Vegas has bazillions of designer stores close at hand, there aren’t too many one-of-a-kind boutique style shops, or at least not in the hotel shopping area anyway. Before we left LA I Googled and printed a list of Salvation Army‘s and Goodwill‘s in Vegas I intended on hitting while we were there but didn’t …
