mirage end table (z gallerie) + vintage accessory (vintage typewriter)

to commemorate my new vintage typewriter i thought i'd try and find a nice table that would look fabulous to showcase my new vintage accessory. unfortunately my vintage typewriter doesn't look as nice as this one. (to see a photo of my new vintage buy, check it out on this post.) i do plan on purchasing a small side table for my typewriter. i'll be sure to post that, once i have it.

btw...i was looking up online the year of my vintage typewriter and it's a 1958 typewriter.

happy early birthday...

i got my early birthday present for myself today (about 2-3 weeks early). i was lucky enough to find a vintage typewriter from a seller that lived close by...and it is gorgeous. i can't wait until this weekend and clean it up a little and take some more photos of my lovely new accessory.

for now, here's a photo i took from my iPhone...vint green app.

happy monday...



happy monday! i hope it starts cooling down over here in the bay area. it's been too hot over here for the last few days. it's hard to get motivated when it's too hot and you have no a/c in your home. (i'm ready for Fall!!!)

Vintage Typewriter

i am on a hunt for a vintage typewriter to put in my future "home office". just love the way they look. i wonder how much is a reasonable price to buy one because i don't want to spend too much.

back to the basics...



a long, long time ago...before there was email, text messages, facebook, etc...i was pretty good in sending out cards for almost every occassion. but i admit i got lazy and just relied on technology. i was inspired to get back to the basics and stay on top of sending out birthday cards, thank you cards, etc. i realized receiving an actual card is so much more meaningful and personal than an email, text message, etc...especially there's so many cute cards out there. (and i can make them myself too ^_^.)

i just sent out a couple of thank you cards today...yay!...it's a start...

happy relaxing weekend...



happy friday and happy weekend...been so busy this week trying to catch up and getting back on the regular grind. it always seems to take me about a week to recover from a (weekend/week) vacation...so back on track on monday and will post some photos from the resort we stayed at.

...thankfully no particular plans for the weekend so just planning on relaxing and enjoying the weekend w/ my bf since he's actually off all weekend...yay...

happy relaxing weekend ^_^.
