pressed flowers

thrifted a few weeks ago but can't seem to let them go yet. There's something very romantic about these pressed flowers. When I was in high school I remember getting very excited finding pressed leaves and flowers from books I used to borrow from the library. I collected them in a small tin box and eventually gave them away to a friend when I left home for college.

seeing green

lately I have been drawn to the color of green, particularly sea green.  I have been finding lots of green colored items in my recent trips to the auction and thrift shop.  Here are some recent green addition to Modish Vintage.
