Treasury Tuesday: "Orange Asphalt", by Eco Shag.

What I love about this treasury is the use of orange and black in a non-Halloween way. Yet, it still feels like a Halloween collection. Brilliantly done, Eco Shag, brilliantly done!

Like A Bat Outta Hell.

Bats scare me. Perhaps it's their link to vampires--or maybe it's simply their creepy faces! Whatever it is, I don't want their weird wings anywhere near me.

Watercolor bat on the loose!

I wouldn't mind this ultra-cute bat print, from LaBerge though. His face isn't creepy, nor his wings weird. In fact, he looks kinda happy. And that's what Halloween is all about.

Gifts For The Industrial Dad.

Vintage stool, from VintageSeventyFive.























Vintage radio dial belt drawer, $39.



















Vintage gas station number, $24.























Vintage cast iron train, from VintageSeventyFive.





















Let's just go ahead and admit it, we have absolutely no idea what our dad really likes. Sure, he graciously accepts the generic tie or dress shirt. And he smiles with glee whenever bags of pistachios are presented (surely this isn't just my dad, right?). But we think the dads of this world deserve something uniquely special this year, wouldn't you agree?

And we've found just the thing--vintage! More specifically, industrial vintage from VintageSeventyFive's Etsy shop. And by the way, we absolutely love this shop! Honestly, what's not to love about these potential Father's Day gems: vintage scales, numbers, trophies, storage containers, and one of our personal faves, vintage cash register flags.

Do yourself (and your dad) a favor and pay a visit to VintageSeventyFive. It's time to end the generic gift-giving cycle. Trust us, your dad will thank you!

Part of our week-long "Gifts For Dad" series. Stay tuned for more dad-centric finds all this week!
