AMAZING vintage wallpaper for sale!


one of my New Year's resolutions was to purge items I no longer needed...

I felt that it was an attainable goal for me...

and honestly, I have so much...(hence my many "before" pictures...of which another is coming up soon!)

so I listed these rolls of vintage wallpaper on EBAY yesterday...
they are really, really full rolls of paper...(more pics on EBAY)

with the hope that someone that does fabulous art will see the rolls and be inspired...
I have been collecting vintage wallpaper even before it was popular...
cuz I just love the old school patterns...
my mom always told me that I was born in the wrong era (she meant it as a compliment, that is how I took it :)

my sellers name is
comehome2me
on ebay
and yes, I have had that name for years...cuz I used to just "buy" on EBAY...
I hope you are all having a great time this new year...even though it is really, really, hard work, I am trying to keep my resolutions this year...
hope you all have a happy day!

my bedroom chandelier...you either love it or you hate it...


I brought this home years and years ago from a tiny, dusty little shop in Idaho.
I wish I had a before picture. It was moldy, didn't light, had broken holders (where the light bulb goes in...not sure what they are called...) and was just in horrible shape.
and I let it sit in my basement for years and years before my friend Mike came along.




Mike restores lamps. So I asked him if he would like a "challenge"...

Isn't he the best? I just love this chandelier...it hangs in a corner of my bedroom...
but you do have to love cherubs to love it...
and I do.
I am off to STARS for day 3 of the sale. the last day for bargains...
hope to see some of you there!
