Margi loves...antique millinery flowers! Once destined for hats and special outings, now they sleep in tissue-lined boxes as softly faded little keepsakes.

Raku-fired pottery feels a little like magic. A glazed piece is pulled from a blazing hot kiln and dropped into a container of flammable things like sawdust. This pulls oxygen from the glaze which creates those wild, deep colors.

Good morning and happy Monday! There are opportunities and challenges ahead of us, but I know we can handle them. Yes we can!

Lovespoon carving is such a sweet tradition! Dating back to the 1600's, a young Welsh man might hand carve a wooden spoon for the young lady he was courting. Nowadays, this would be totally cute hanging in the kitchen!

Vintage sky blue basket with eggs
Soft color and a hint of nostalgia, a charming piece for spring styling, whether on a table, shelf, or entry.
Now at my shop at Westside Market Midtown. Come see it in person.

Well fiddle-dee-dee, it’s Vivien Leigh for Throwback Thursday! Vivien had that wonderful ability to make strength and vulnerability sit in the same chair and sort of glare at each other.

Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin learned piano as a child and hit the road as a teenager with her father’s gospel caravan. By the time Respect hit the charts in '67, she was already a powerhouse in gospel and R&B.

Margi loves...Vintage seed packets! You can find these "new old stock" packets at a few places on the web - empty of course. Envelopes like these were printed but never used, and sat in storage for decades until being found.

The 1970s had so many fashion moments. A favorite is Halston's Ultrasuede Shirt Dress. Clean tailoring, a neat little belt, and look at that - pockets! Tres chic, comfortable, and little glamorous with the right accessories.

Old postcards, photos & print ephemera are such a treat, especially when the subject is near home. This one is from the 1895 Cotton States and International Exposition in what is now Botanical Garden & Piedmont Park. Even the Liberty Bell was on display!

Throwback Thursday to Betty Grable, the golden girl whose famous over the shoulder swimsuit photo became one of the most beloved images of the 1940s. With her legendary legs, & sensible fashions, she boosted wartime morale for millions.

Margi loves… Mary Tyler Moore’s big letter “M”! It seems like it would have been poised to spark a fad in the ’70s, but that never happened. Of course, today you can find letters like this at craft and hobby stores. Hmmm…

You know her from The Bob Newhart Show, a cameo on The Brady Bunch (wigs, anyone?), Match Game, and as Edna Krabappel on The Simpsons. The wonderful Marcia Wallace had a marvelous dry delivery that could get the audience howling!

Throwing back hard with these seriously 70's outfits. The wide belts, bell-bottoms, chunky shoes. And the pockets! Ample room for your oversized sunglasses, a bottle of Charlie, lip gloss, and keys to the Chevy Duster.

Throwback Thursday with the wonderful Barbara Bain! She stepped straight into television history with three consecutive Emmy wins for Mission: Impossible, and later commanded Moonbase Alpha as Dr. Helena Russell on Space: 1999.

If you love rich, full-bodied reds or deep dark chocolate… silky, fruity whites or creamy milk chocolate… or sweet, jammy wines and buttery white chocolate… there’s a scented candle here that pairs perfectly with your taste. 🍷🕯️

Remember those classic silhouette portraits from the 70s? 🖤
Teachers would trace our outlines with an overhead projector, and then we’d carefully cut them out. A simple school-day craft that’s pure nostalgia!
