a peek into the past

seen in the apartment of someone's dearly departed mother.  a lot of kitsch but quite a few amazing pieces. 


cherubs were a recurring theme
kind of sad this one is blurry.  but who doesnt want an electric brass candelabra?  take away the wreath, the faux bulbs, and paint it silver.  perfect for my house!

idk when ceramic flowers were en vogue, but i certainly hope they never make a comeback
a door sword.  what every fashionable grandmother needs
awesomely ornate furniture

a rose box and swirly gated loft?  perhaps not..
but a gladiator helmet wall piece?  painted white with red fluff on top?
portrait plates

and last but certainly not least..
gilded rotary phone! i really wanted to move the shoe and take another picture..but opted not to.  sigh.

  3. I love the gold telephone! It looks so sinful and decadent with all that gold! Stopping by from the blog hop (although late) and following you thru GFC. I would love a follow back when you get the chance. Thanks so much for your help and have a great week!
