tuesday treasury
Browsing beautiful items and putting them all together in a pretty little collection...I heart making treasuries! I decided I am going to feature a new treasury every Tuesday. Ya know, because treasury and Tuesday start with the same letter and all :)
Enjoy this weeks treasury, titled shades of grey - vintage treasury. All the items are vintage, grey & beautiful!
vroom. vroom.

Yesterday, I was driving on the freeway on my way to work when I heard a very obnoxious engine sound, I glanced around looking for the clunker car culprit....& then I realized the culprit was me. My car sounds like a small jet engine plane. She is currently in the shop being looked at, I think it might be her muffler...I just hope it's nothing too serious.
Anyways! Cars have been on my mind today and I decided to post some beautiful photos of vintage cars. There is something about the silhouette of a vintage car that I am drawn to. They evoke such a nostalgic feeling {& they are really pretty}.
Enjoy the photos {all found on flickr, click for the original}

reupholstering done right
I was searching vintage furniture when I came across bokja and I am now in love with furniture I can never own {there are no prices on the website, so the pieces undoubtedly cost more than I make in a month & my boyfriend would kill me for bringing in another colorful pattern into our home}. Their pieces are all one-of-a-kind, made from recycled vintage embroidered tapestries traditionally given as bridal gifts. They are colorful, bold, kind of insane & absolutely amazing.
check out this chaise....
the seat my bum was made for...
last {but not least} the sofa of my dreams
maybe one day...for now i will dream :)
featuring Kirameku-handmade jewelry to pieces of art.
Pleasure for me is to feature this etsy shop for handmade jewelry to pieces of art. It's name is Kirameku (click to see the shop) .
Some words directly from the artist:
" As a student in Arts, creativity is the center of my life. Inspired by nature and different cultures, I create as much as possible life full, colourful and original pieces. Color always makes people happy, so to bring forward more happiness into one’s life, I wanted to share pieces I’m proud of. I hope that you’ll love them, because I do… ! ^_^ As for my shop’s name, it’s actually a Japanese word to describe the shine of the ocean and the diamonds. I thought it fit the shop so perfectly, because, I go crazy for everything that shines ! Little plus, Kirameku tries to be as Earth-friendly as possible, choosing from post-consumed paper to recycled materials. Last, but not least, special thanks to my friends, family and boyfriend who supported and helped me all the way in the process. Love you guyz ! 0_-٭٠ە●○◦ ْ٭٠ە●○◦ ْ٭٠ە●○◦ ْ٭٠ە●○◦ ْ٭٠ە●○◦ ْ٭٠ە●○◦ ْ٭٠ە○ Maxime, female. Born in Québec. N’hésitez pas a me contacter en français ! :P

old school shades
I have a special place in my heart for a good pair of shades.
I have an ever growing collecting of all different shapes, sizes & colors. Sunglasses are a great way to play around with different styles without breaking the bank. I especially love vintage frames, which have been making a huge mainstream comeback the past few years. Several celebs are all about the vintage style, one of my favorites Mary Kate cannot get enough of her retro inspired shades.
Check out some of my vintage shade inspiration below, and find your own vintage frames here, or stop by and pick up a 2010 version someplace like here.
Shine on. :)
