GUEST BLOGGING AT ALTERNATIVE APPAREL

I'm excited to announce that I was recently asked to guest blog for Alternative Apparel, here are a few pics from my most recent post for them. You can see the full post on their blog here.

Vintage Prints

These prints on vintage dictionary pages are so much fun. I found a couple people on Esty who sell them but these are from here.

After a few months of hard work, we finally went live with the Antiquaria Web Store this morning! Now the real fun begins......

Here are a few of my favorites (I wish I could keep it all for myself!)

{Cobalt & Canary China, Set of 4 Placesettings}

I think this set is my favorite, I absolutely love the quirky-ness of these souvenir plates as dinner plates, especially mixed with all the other blue & white patterns. This is a set that we will continuously build into as we collect more pieces.

The Prairie Floral Plates are also quite lovely. All of the dinner plates are different and they are all really special. We built this set one plate at a time.

The "Berkshires" China Collection is also one that's close to my heart. I love the red acorn toile pattern mixed with the vintage florals.

We started collecting these little cups with the intention of using them for sorbet or ice cream. 

They are so fun mixed together in different color ways.

Antiquaria

So, I know I've been completely MIA on the blog for the past few months. It's mainly been because I have been focusing on my newest project, Antiquaria, which will be an online store focusing on curated vintage dishes and custom vintage gift registry. My partner in crime is Bailey Amon, who was the talented calligrapher who did the calligraphy for my wedding invitation (featured on Oh So Beautiful Paper). We are feverishly working on getting our web shop launched - hopefully any day now!

For now you can take a peek at our website to see what we have in store for you.

I'll keep you posted on the progress.

xoxo Emma
