Arts Addict

  Finishing this year thrifting with a bang, quality items. Amazing dress by Tara Vao. This is cotton and linen combo fabric dress, super comfy and cool boho artsy looking. I am wearing it with black tank boots and on the top long sleeved black T shirt. Plus jewelry to jazz it up. https://carolccollections.com/tara-vao/ I love that new collection video there under link! As soon as I noticed ( how one can not notice? ) the color...I walked to it as if drawn by invisible force. Bonus is that it is velvet and as soon as I tried it on...I had a BIG smile in my face. It is fabulous! This is by Wendy Trendy. Oooh...I am waiting for spring now to start waring it...meanwhile it elevates my bedroom just hanging there on the clothes cupboard door. I love it. https://www.wendytrendy.com/en/ Looove! 😍💖 Look how cool and quirky clothing this is! The photo does not do justice to the dress. It is very moody and darkly mysterious and charming. Mysterious is right word. It is a stretchy and chiff...

  This weeks finds. The moment I noticed this majolica frogs planter I immediately had big smile in my face. There are 10 frogs sitting on the rim of that planter and staring back at you. So cute. Google image gave me multiple images and this was described by other as Chinese produce. Not sure...there are only number 34 and letter Z underneath. Zorro?  I love it! Colorful polka dot and flowers 100% silk scarf .  What there not to like...been wearing this already and it elevates my mood. These two heavy cast iron whippet book ends I picked up just few hours ago while passing my local mall charity shop. Saw them on the window and anything sculptural speaks to me immediately. I have plenty of books that these could keep upright just magnificently.                                                         ...

I came back from this charity shop being most excited about this pottery terrine, but...continue reading. Pottery terrine I don't know if this pots rustic and worn look has been intentional or it is old but it is a look that is so appealing to me. All it's nicks and few chips add to the charm. As if my grandmother would have given it to me. Its not signed so no idea who its by. Look at this beauty! 😍 Silk (?) scarf I am not 100% but I think its a silk (there is no tag ) and I think its hand painted because I can see that the lines are not perfect...it has done by loose hand. I love these soft muted colors and the Egyptian lotus flower kind of pattern. I also found an splash of color that most likely spilled when someone was doing it and might be the reason it was donated. I don't mind the spill...it even adds to the story. It could be used as scarf or layer the tablecloth to decorate the tablescape. My gut feeling tells me that both these necklaces are Natural Stone bead n...
