Friday Favorites #14

Friday Favorites - Living Vintage - March 7

I have been feeling under the weather all week.   Allergies have been going nuts (more than usual) and have had very itchy ears and dizziness.    My doctor diagnosed an inner infection and prescribed ten days of antibiotics.

Fortunately, I wasn’t needed at the at our project in Jacksonville this week.   Mark and 3 hired crew have been making major progress. I’ll show you what’s been going on there soon.

Rest and relaxation is on the agenda for both of us this weekend.  Looking forward to being lazy.Kim signature

a beautiful image of an abandoned farmhouse - Friday Favorites - Living VintageI love the photo of this old abandoned farmhouse.  The colors are so pretty, and it looks like it’s from a dream.

darling garden shed using vintage reclaimed architectural pieces - Friday Favorites - Living VintageLynn’s little gardening shed is one of the cutest I’ve ever seen.  I love how she incorporated an old door, old corbels, and other reclaimed architectural pieces, like the wonderful trim above the door.

a gorgeous dining room with an inspiring view - Friday Favorites - Living VintageThis dining room is so gorgeous in every way.  I love all the natural light, the industrial lighting, the simple vase on the table, but my favorite part?  Who wouldn’t want to wake up each day to that pretty view?

Birds and Insects Post Office - Friday Favorites - Living VintageI’d love to find a vintage copy of this fanciful book.  I think of my father every time I see anything postal related — he was a rural mail carrier for many years.

a wonderful porch with comfy seating and a hanging bed - Friday Favorites - Living VintageI could spend many pleasant hours on this porch.  Let’s see, I’d have coffee and read a good book in that white chair on the right, then I’d take my afternoon nap on that hanging bed.

darling miniature houses - Friday Favorites - Living Vintage

I love, love, love this little chicken coop(?) built to look like a miniature house.  I think it would be cool to display one of these inside as a work of art.  If I can identify who makes these, I’ll certainly update the pin!

cheerful vintage kitchen - Friday Favorites - Living VintageThis is such a cute, simple, and happy vintage kitchen, don’t you think?

You are my sunshine - Friday Favorites - Living VintageI love these little blocks so much, I asked if he still had them.  Of course, they remind me of that old sweet song.

      Sure thing, Lynn! I think I’ve been saving that blog post of yours for 6 months, and finally remembered to use it on a Friday Favorites post.

    So well done…as always! I really look forward to your posts. I do have to say…that the fist picture of the house did look like it came from a dream…but a nightmare…with the birds flying over head…shades of Tippi Hedron :–)

      I suppose I understand why you would say that. The image reminds me a cinematography technique I’ve seen quite a bit in recent years. I have no idea what it’s called. Also, the image reminded me of dreaming . . . that dreams don’t make any sense at all sometimes, but are usually based on something real mostly. (At least that’s the way I seem to dream.) 🙂
