Coming to the Shop~ Vintage by Nina Books!

I was so excited yesterday to get my store copy of Vintage by Nina in the mail!! We ordered copies for the shop which are in the process of being translated in English now and will be available in mid-Septemeber so in the mean time we received the international version and the pics...oh man the pics are just gorgeous and slightly magical. Everything is in these wonderful shades of greys and whites and some blues and you really don't even have to be able to read it to appreciate what a fantastic designer Nina Hartman is....let me share~
You have probably seen this rolling around the internet but let me share some new pics I came across that I hadn't recently seen of her home and shop~

This is Nina's actual home~



I love this pic! There are several pages in the book of vintage circus and clown costumes hung with old ballet slippers...I have such a thing for anything vintage circus~



Do you see the tiny little birdcage?
too cute!
No a few pages from the actual book~

Nautical Saturday

I was so determined yesterday to make it to the pool with Oliver...it's a summer ritual since I was a kid growing up in Alabama  to spend every waking moment of the summer by the pool or ocean or creek....whatever water I can find. So I was so excited as I was laid out by the pool soaking up some skin cancer to see this nautical house built from a ship (yes a ship!) in Country Living~ I heard those dang angels again!~  This house literally spoke to my heart.... and it said.... please come live here and NEVER leave!
Let's not waste any time, I will just start out with my favorite pic!
The crunchy fabric on the chair and the canvas flask type thing behind it...the wire baskets, the ship, the oils....Le Sigh

I love how light and white it is....I would probably be scared to do it with a 2 yr old but I feel a new wind a blowing in my house....greys & whites....

Just a simple little kitchen and oil of a ship...with a gorgeous mirror in the left corner~ see it hiding?



Love the Blue Jugs...

I will take the entire little area home, especially the stools

Collection of Belgian Wig Maker Heads and Mirrors

This looks really similar to how I organize my cabinets....

Such a fitting house for a Memorial Day Weekend! LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Now I'm off to get ready for boating....I have to soak in all the water time I can get before our 1 month of winter sneaks up on us :)
