Pair of Fabulous Black and Purple Buttons....flowers

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 12:13:21 -0500

$3.00
Ooh la la! These are the prettiest buttons! If this shade of purple didn't look so horrible on me, I'd keep them and make earrings out of them! They have black swagged edges and purple fluted centers with four beads. Each button measures 15/16" in diameter and sit about 1/4" tall, counting the back ring. The backs have sturdy plastic rings. Great shape save the molding flaws.

Thanks!

8 Fabulous Plastic Buttons in Pastels....blue, yellow, green, peach

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 11:59:16 -0500

$4.25
Are these just perfect or what?! I love buttons, especially plastic ones! This group is made up of bigger buttons in yellow, blue, green and peach. There are two matching 1" diameter yellow buttons with checkerboard tops, only the checks are made of hexagons rather than squares! There is one larger yellow, almost pearly button with little leaves all over the top of it. There are two matching pealized peach buttons that have puffy centers and little crimped looking edges. These are LaMode buttons. There are two off matched buttons with faned edges and loops in the center. One has a green loop and the other butterscotch. And finally, one blue button. It's a nice 1 1/4" diameter dome button with a pretty petal design...reminds me of a big peony.

I have had these buttons since I was a little girl! They were my grandmother's but it's time to part with them. I've taken close ups so you can see the condition!

Thanks!

Stunning Metalwork Necklace....Silvertone pendant of flowers with brass centers

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 16:20:54 -0500

$12.95
How incredible is this funky metalwork necklace?! Mega funky! The pendant is made up of a cluster of 10 silvertone hand-curled flowers with brass ball centers. And these flowers sit in the center of an oval shaped metal basket frame. The bale is another hand curled flower and the whole pendant is suspended from a chain.

The chain measures 17 1/4" long. The pendant measures 2" long x 1 3/4" wide. The pendant is 5/16" thick.

This fab pendant is in great shape! Some of the flower petals are not perfectly symetric, but that just makes it prettier if you ask me.

Thanks for looking!

Mushroom Wall Hanging....straight out of 1975

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 20:15:13 -0500

$4.50
How about these groovy mushrooms?! Handmade by ZB...whoever that is...in 1975, these ceramic brown and yellow mushrooms will look great on any wall. Don't you just love the little dots on the tops of them? They measure 4 3/4" tall by 4" wide and sit approximately 1 1/4" off the wall. They are in great shape. There is one tiny flake off the side of the mushroom where it meets the wall, but it blends right in with the little dots.

Molly Ringwald Vintage Lace Pumps, size 7

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:36:49 -0500

$15.00
Hello...don't these pumps scream Molly Ringwald in Pretty in Pink? Not pink though...instead a nice white...just barely off white. Lace over satin. I cannot find a size on the shoes, but I tried them on and I'd say they are a size 7. The brand is Baloons. Clearly these were worn for the prom or a wedding, as there is only very light wear on the heel. There are scuff marks on the soles....ladies you know what I'm talking about. The scuffs we make so we don't bust our tails on the carpet! There is one small dark rub spot on the heel but it would not show up in the pics.

Measurements of the sole (bottom):
2 7/8" across the ball of the foot
10" from tip of toe to end of heel
3" heel
2" across inside heel

Thanksarooney!

Vintage Enameled Seagull Pin....to wear or for repurposing

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:01:05 -0400

$3.25
What a sweet little enameled seagull pin! It reminds me of our recent trip to the beach! He's a happy little gull, taking a breather on the sea. He's resting on some choppy little white caps, his wings raised. You can see in the pics that he has some little marks to the enamel. And on the back of the pin...the pin has detached from the wing This makes it move slightly but it really doesn't make it unwearable at all. Honestly, I don't think it will make any difference when wearing the pin.

If you don't want to wear this little guy, he'd be really pretty repurposed into your next project!

Mr. Gull measures 1 3/8" tall x 7/8" wide.

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 18:40:32 -0400

$30.50
These boots rock! I love the buckles on the sides and the lambswool! Genuine leather uppers with man made soles.

These are a US size 7 1/2 and have a 2 1/2" heel. They measure 17 1/2 inches tall and 10" from bottom of the heel to the tip of the toe. Calf measures 13 & 1/2" around.

There is some very very minor wear to the bottom, but the heels look brand new. The sticker goo is still there and the original price sticker is still there reading value $85.00. That's a nice bood for the 70s! It's as if they were worn once and put away The interiors are nice and clean. The wool is worn around the top edge and some on the side flaps of wool. In a couple of places it's missing, but the same color, so that it is difficult to show in pics.

Can't fine a name on them, but they are made in Brazil.

Thanks!

Huge Tortoise Shell Bakelite Buttons with Brass Embellishments - set of 4

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 15:11:36 -0400

$32.00
Oh what an amazing group of 4 tortoise shell bakelite buttons! I've been hoarding these away in my private stash for some time. But since all I do is admire them from time to time, I've decided to part with them.

These buttons simply glow! And each one has a lovely brass Art Nouveau embellishment in the center. These are some large buttons, measuring 1 15/16" in diameter and 1/4" thick, not including the brass piece, which is another 3/16" thick!

The buttons are in excellent condition, having only minor wear. Some glue is visible on two of the buttons; this is visible in the pics. They test positive for bakelite, too!

Don't hesitate and miss these!

Thanks for stopping in!

Oh, I can hardly stand to sell these. In fact they have bounced between the sell basket and hang on the wall basket. They remind me so of me and my little Eli! Sad thing is I have no where to hang them. :(

Big Fat and Wonderful 1970s Mushroom Wall Hanging

Wed, 23 Sep 2009 22:30:47 -0400

$25.00
Oh my my! What a fat and wonderful plastic mushroom wall hanging right from the year I was born! 1970! It just doesn't get any better than this!

These are the classic 1970s shades of yellow--almost gold--and green. Yes, we had this gold shag carpet in our house when I was little...purchased in 1970. :) And let's not forget the raised gold velvet wallpaper with faces on it! How fab!

Anyhoo...these mushrooms are huge! The piece measures 18 and 15/16ths of an inch wide at the widest, the grass, and 14 3/4" tall. And they are amazingly three dimensional, prodruding 4" off the wall.

How about the amazing details on the shrooms?! They are complete with dots and ribs. The back reads: COPYRIGHT MCMLXX (1970) SYROCO, MADE IN THE USA.

This wallhanging is in excellent condition with only a couple of light and little bitty rubs that are not even noticeable....see pics.

I've priced shipping as $10 domestic and $25 international because of the weight and size and the weight of the box. I can check on shipping to your zip code if you convo me. It may be less, in which case I can edit the shipping and reserve these for you.

Don't miss these great shrooms! You need them for your happiness and overall wellbeing.

Thanks!
