The outside have flappers, Charlie Chaplin, etc...and say "Roaring Twenties". There are four..and they will be part of the give a way...

Tablecloths

I love to look at other's tables, table settings and tablecloths. At the online shop Retro Redheads, they always have the cutest table settings that match and enhance the tablecloths. I'd like to see your collections! Tonight, I will try to take some better pix of tablecloths and settings. Show me yours!!

Wednesday....and half way to the weekend!

This is the Zootsuit yard last Spring

I'm gonna meditate on these pix til it comes true.

It is warmer here, and this weekend I will rake my garden and hopefully till it to get ready for planting some lettuce and other goodies!

Decals!!

I can almost see the bins of rows of decals at my local Ben Franklin, and it hasn't been that long ago.When they took my favorite place away, it was like a part of my childhood died. Woolworth has been long gone from the Square. It lasted longer, I think until 1995 or 1996, at the Blue Ridge Mall. I was there the last day it was open, sitting at the snack bar. Decals just add something vintage like no other. Not new looking ones, but swans, baskets of fruit, or nursery rhymes.

Meyercord is the most often found. I got two large flower basket/vegetable baskets today. Also, the nursery rhymes one. So cute! Like the graphics in the old children's books, they just have a different feel.

Why, you can even decal your Beetle!

This flower basket is on my kitchen cabinet doors.

I think I'll put the large ones I found tonight on the white metal cabinets in the kitchen! Decals can be fun, boys and girls!

Hola my name is Crazy! Welcome to the Calypso Carnival!

Ok, so...I find this sheetmusic last night. That set me off on changing the back/dining room to my "mexican" themed room...At 3 am, I had transferred Fiesta and all to the back room, and made the kitchen have a cleaner, less cluttered look. Some may say, "Why Zoot, why are you so loco?" I don't know! But here are the results~
Not a whole lot different, just less stuff on the counters, more mixture of primary colors and pastelsThe cabinets show the colors with the dishesThis is my new curtain over the sink window, it's my hankies.

I had to have this little dog towel someone made.

D for Deb, that's my real name.

Picture of my Aunt Ida's house, check out the wallpaper!

Now for the back room.  Fiesta and bright colors! Now I can show off all my tablecloths. 

a weekend find. I wish they had the whole set.

Inside the china cabinet! Look at my "shelf paper". I got a whole huge pkg of the Retro Mod wrapping paper on the dollar isle. Here's a close up~

shelves...

I even cleaned my vanity top off and made it less cluttered.

More thrift store finds this weekend...Bunny bank, a sixties oriental girl...Suzy Kwan.

Well, I feel better, until the next decorating bug hits me. I'm headed for the basement. Who knows what I'll find while I'm cleaning! Adios Amigos and Amigas. If youre into mid century I might even say Aoembas'.
