| SO....I borrowed some of his stash and put together a vignette on the desk that is in the sun room. |
 |
| The little black typewriter on the top shelf is a travel style and folds over to pack in a suitcase. |
 |
| This is an old electric typewriter that I painted the blue on it...pink of course.... |
 |
| and left the keyboard cover the original aqua. You may remember seeing this old typewriter out on the patio a couple of weeks ago. It was sitting on a wicker desk. |
 |
| H bought this old notary stamp at the auction. |
|
| H is starting to get quite a collection of rubber stamps.....I think it would be fun to display them all in a cloche, what do you think? On the top shelf of the desk, you can see I took one of H's stamp holders, painted it pink, and put little glass vases in the rubber stamp holder slots. It makes a cute flower holder! |
 |
| The old stamp pads are hard to find, most of them were thrown away when they dried up. |
 |
 |
 |
| This is a close up of the vintage chenille spread that is hung by the desk. |
I know I've said it before, but I just love to stop by and see your creative display ideas, all the ideas you share with us. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteWhat a magnificent collection!! The typewriters are so unique in their own way! My heart loves pink but that black corona is something else!! LOVE it! Blessings~~~Roxie
ReplyDeleteYour display is lovely! I think you should be a professional window dresser! And those typewriters? I can't help but feel nostalgic when I see them!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun- A pink typewriter. Well, if I can paint a TV white why can't you paint a typewriter pink? You are just so fun, Penny- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI think Leah has it right, you'd make an awesome window dresser. Your vignette's are always so beautiful, and this one in at the top of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteI want your typewriter! So cool, I have been searching for one!

ReplyDeleteBoth typewriters are neat to see. I think I like the little black one best. You and H move things around like on a chess board. It is always fun to visit you.
ReplyDeletePenny,
ReplyDeleteLove all of these wonderful vintage pieces!! I think it is fantastic that H. has his own collections... Joe only collects old lottery tickets..... LOL!!
A truly fantastic collection.
We had 2 inches of rain yesterday in 5 hours!! Flash flooding all over but I am up a a huge hill so that would never happen to us. Pictures of our area were on GMA this morning....
I am still working in my guest room. I am moving a bit slower as I tripped and fell yesterday while moving things in and out of the craft room and guest room. I landed on my right hip and Thank God it was not my knee and that I still have quite a bit of padding on my butt!! LOL!!
Just sore though today...
Good luck with your yard sale ... Wish I could come to it as I am sure i would be filling our SUV with all of your great things!!
Hugs,
Deb
gosh that is a beautiful display, after many hours tapping away on the old machines I embraced the new technology and threw away the good old eraser, now all these nostalgic collections look so pretty and friendly, am wondering if we took more time to connect with our words on the old typewriters
ReplyDeletewell done, love your eye for design
You should do very well with your sale. You have some great things. Wish I could drop by.
ReplyDeleteI love that beautiful black typewriter. Beautiful! Is he selling it?
ReplyDeleteThat Corona on the top shelf is certainly graceful! Nice collection of office equipment with a lot of glamour for Pink Saturday.
