My next POP-UP SHOP is in a couple weeks (April 18th and 19th) and the theme is "Global Home" for Earth Day. Did you know that more than 12 million tons of furniture get thrown out in the U.S. every year? Supporting small businesses that sell second hand sourced goods helps alleviate this problem. So, global home is not only about decor that has a more global feel, but also about helping out this big blue marble that we all call home.
Here are some recently sourced and curated objects that will be available. Keep reading for details and for a "surprise" in this vignette!
I've always loved red and aqua together and these lovely, vintage, aqua dishes, vases, and trinkets are perfect in this vignette. So here's one fun fact--the sweet pea picture/ coat hanger that I bought at a garage sale was made and sold by me about 15 years ago. I was happy to buy it back to resell. I love this lion!
Tis vintage Asian print entitled "Whispering" was in a cheap wood frame and matted so that you couldn't see all of it when I found it. I painted a mat and framed it in a square frame to show the whole print. These brass candlesticks are extremely heavy. I love this hand-stitched tapestry--so much work and time must have gone into it. The colorful art piece above the sweet peas is from a French artist. And now for the secret--this table is really a hidden seat and desk. It has a drawer in it and the front pulls out to reveal a seat. Isn't that fun? I am loving sourcing eclectic items for my upcoming "global home" pop-up shop. What do yo see that you love?
