Objects Found....


They've been an obsession of mine for a while now. I love these liquer bottles (most famously from bols) that are music boxes too. They each have tiny dancers spinning around in them and play beautiful, sparkly melodies. Last year my design sponge sneak peak highlighted my very petite collection. As seen above... my ballerina bottle was found in a shop in new foundland and still has the gold leaf peppered liqueur inside of it. The other has a tiny couple that waltz to a strangely haunting rendition of ma vie en rose gracing it's center.

The Stirrup Cup...

While they are pretty darn chic... I also love the whole idea behind the stirrup cup. Traditionally they were offered to guests, filled with a little port or sherry of course, as they were leaving (and had their feet in the stirrups).

Noble Town Vintage!

This year, for my birthday, a friend gave me a gorgeous necklace from Noble Town Vintage... I wear it all the time and wanted to see what else they had to offer... and it turns out to be a treasure trove of gorgeous baubles!





And I love their adorable packaging. Not gonna lie... I'm totally a sucker for packaging

Check out their etsy shop

Sorry it's been so long.... check out Trove

I'm back! After a very busy season for my company, Poppies & Posies, we are finally beginning to slow down a teeny tiny bit. Whew! So sorry I've neglected the blog.... Anywho.... just had to share this amazing wallpaper from Trove Studios.

This is probably my favorite wallpaper of all time... I think it would be fabulous in a guest bathroom; with all the little opera box people staring out at you... very cheeky. Loves it!

And this in a dining room with only recessed lighting..... in a black ceiling.... I really need a house to redecorate!

Check out all of the wonderful wallpaper (and more) at Trove. They're also being featured at the Cooper-Hewitt through January.
