The blue trunk

I visited a few second hand stores this week and found this antique trunk. It was love at first sight and I purchased it straight away. 
After a deep cleaning I was able to list all the damages and repairs due to be done and started. 

Junk stores in the desert

There is no restore or painting job today! 

I am happy to share with you wonderful pictures while we were visiting Moab, Utah and Colorado. As I did in my post while driving accross Route 66 (click here if you missed it) we stopped by two gorgeous places: junk and antiques stores! I so much love them! 

The first place was in Moab, a souvenirs store. We did prefer the outdoor rather the inside because of the junk stuff standing there, obviously abandonned but maintaining its character, irrestibly vintage! Old engines, tractors, rusted pieces all over... 

The 2nd store was even more genuine! The owner was very friendly and happy to see visitors from abroad. His store was originally (and still) a beans supplier but turned into a vintage store as nearly everything was for sale: coffee, kitchenware, car plates... and oh by the way one of them is now hanging on my headboard. Enjoy the tour...

Flea Market finds

Hi, 

The other day I went to a flea market with a friend of mine. I so much love these markets! I came back to the car with a great vintage stuff. Every piece has genuine character. 

I am so happy this week as I've been given a lot of wine crates! This is gonna be a great re-use project for my home deco!
