Texture and patina- vintage love

 I thought I would show you another side of me...

Apart from my love for nature and creating, I also have a passion for interesting patinas and textures.
Multiple layers of peeling paint and a healthy dose of rust can send me into a squealing, hyperventilating spin.
Antique shows and junk shops is like a candy factory for me.. :)

 I love pieces that show their story,  ..you can see they have had quite a history.

 With this first post I'll start with showing some new pieces I found yesterday at a big vintage show in Austin.




This delightful pie chest is over a hundred years old... it was just right for some of my old art papers and supplies


the fan still works and oscillates beautifully..




My 4 year old loves this 'new' hole punch.... little white circles are all over my floor :)
