Enjoy!

:Happy Monday:

The Four Seasons on Limoges

ahhh, Limoges...
if you know me, you know of my obsession with Limoges porcelain.
i'm very happy to be able to apply my drawings on these beauties...

the four seasons set above has sold!

tomorrow (monday 11/24) i'll be posting another set of Limoges berry bowls.
the ones above were T&Vs, the next ones will be Havilands.

last four limoges berry bowls under my possession, until i find some more...

::vintage wooden box, love::

a new obsession: vintage wooden box.

i've been in search for some nice ones for a while now. it's not as easy as i thought it'd be. there are quite a few that when you see from far away seems like the most beautiful box you've seen! once you get close, you learn it's super-glued and it will never open... or the bottom has a huge crack/hole and anything you put in the box will fall through... or it's just plain old and will actually dissolve in your hands...

i'm moving in to my new work studio in less than a month and i've been 'eye shopping' for furniture, storage, decoration, etc... like a mad woman. mind you, my space is small. nothing that i want will fit... anyway, i thought wooden boxes would make great storage for my drawing pens, mailing supplies, craft supplies...

here are my three amazing finds! (flea market finds)

this one i'm using as my contact storage - the cards came with! going to staple all my contact's business cards! (see, i do keep business cards :)

~catch me if you can~

::inspiration::

i killed a rat once. as much as i think they are disgusting, i feel terrible.

this is an homage to the rat.

i'm sorry, rat.

::catch me if you can::

{ H A V I L A N D, Limoges }

do you know about haviland, limoges?

i've been learning about it more and more each day. the more i learn about it, the more i fall in love with it...

well, most porcelain/china made in limoges, france seem to be the most gorgeous wares.

i've been lucky, i believe, to have found these ones (T&V, Limoges). they make the plate sets look so much richer and beautiful.

this little bowl is from 1892-1907.

a few weeks ago, i found an amazing set of haviland plates, cups and saucers. unfortunately, they arrived completely broken... it was heart breaking. as they were beautiful. i might get some mosaic done... 

but, my heart has been mended recently as i found a ::more:: ;) beautiful set of havilands! and they are due to arrive soon.

::time for tea::

vintage tea cups with illustrations by rj

these vintage pieces are so gorgeous i can't get over them. i found them on etsy yesterday and have been dreaming about them ever since...

oh christmas, why so far away.

these lovely pieces from petit poulailler

look what i just bought!

a 50's:60's tea bag holder. so sweet no?

i'm probably going to use it to place my necklaces before i go to bed...

i always forget to take them off and they get tangled up: this makes me frustrated...

from suttree street

can't wait to receive it!

i've also found some cool vintage plates i intend to draw on and mix:match with more modern plates. i think they'll make cools wall plate sets.

uhhh i cannot wait!
