Wedding season, graduation, and the Royal celebration all have me thinking of little luxuries, so I felt like putting together a small collection of little glitzy things.
Nothing dresses up an intimate personal space like pretty vintage bottles. This one by Geurlain sports delightful Napoleonic honey bees.
Little beaded purses from the fifties seem to have almost universal appeal. I'm attracted to the white ones. There's no replicating the patina of those aged pearl beads.
What is more indulgent than an exquisite vintage lace handkerchief?
I'm thinking this one is a tatting stitch. Beautiful and delicate.
The essential vintage compact mirror.
An elegant vintage beaded bag can make a lady feel special even if it only decorates the dresser top.
This little antique Limoges butter pat makes a nice pin tray.
A vintage dresser tray is almost all you need to corral a few sweet things on a night table or vanity.
An aged fabric rose pin dresses up this tray.
Ah, life's little luxuries!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Ciao! for now!

ReplyDeleteLoved seeing your little luxuries. The bee motif on that bottle is my favorite, but each little treasure is stunning. Now you have me eager to go in search of my little pearl clutch from my youth. Wonder where I've stashed it? ~ Sarah
