i'm falling more and more in love with banged up shabby chic. if only the vintage items could talk... and tell me about their history. where they came from. who owned them. and how they got in such a weathered condition. maybe that's the same reason i like people with a colorful past...they have such depth compared to people who haven't experienced as much life. is there a correlation of the two? ahhhh... deep thinking on wednesday night. smile, wink, nod.

like the deep thinking. I also often wish an object could talk and tell me a little more about itself. When I go to estate sales, if I purchase something interesting, I try and find out some history on it..then I will write it down and keep it with the object. Makes the item a little more special!

I love banged up shabby chic too. just about all old cool stuff, like my 1962 vintage kitchen aid mixer :)- Janet M
