vintage haul

I was feeling very buried in accumulated goodies that were destined for sale so I've been focusing my energy on listing vintage treasures in my shop instead of treasure hunting.

this past week two vintage treasures snuck into my home without my doing. Little Mommy gave me this adorable Hagiwara Tea Garden bowl -- I seem to be collecting vintage San Francisco souvenirs that were made in China or Japan. I've searched the internet high and low for a comparable piece but this tea cup & saucer was the closest I could find

Fontaine, my expert hair dresser and friend extraordinaire, gifted me an adorable petty cash compact. She knows how I love a tidy purse full of tiny containers. similar petty cash compact.

1. yoga blanket came out of hibernation. I've just begun week four of the FODMAP elimination diet and yesterday I began day 1 of vagus nerve yoga, hoping for a mind over matter healing experience. I'm using this helpful set of yoga poses along with Viparita Karani. / 2. laundry self portrait / 3. peep hole -- the view from the stairs while waiting to enter an estate sale
