Vintage Fall-Themed Decor, From Kibster Vintage.

I just discovered Kibster Vintage yesterday. Their wonderful Etsy shop is packed with mid-century modern and Danish modern finds from the 50's through the 70's. And their minimalist photography technique really highlights the inherent vintage beauty of each piece.

There's so much awesomeness to discover, including these Fall-themed goodies:

Mikasa plate, $25.























Mid-century modern salt and pepper shakers, $12.























1970's Thermos, $12.
























Midwinter mug set, $15.

Get The Word Out.

Sure, invitations via mail are the wedding standard. But we'd prefer a method that'll scream "do not miss this event!" Pretty sure, this amazing customized wedding poster will do the trick.

Favorite Vintage Find #1 - The Paymaster Check Imprinter.

Most of my Goodwill treasure hunts are fruitless. Piles upon piles of Ikea leftovers, stacks of outdated picture frames and mounds of throwaway office and computer junk typically dominate the shelves. But every once and a while, a diamond is unearthed.

Does vintage get any more beautiful than this?

























Meet my diamond--the Paymaster check imprinting machine. Virtually unused, scratch-free and brilliantly aqua, this beauty instantly caught my eye. In an ecstatic and somewhat anxious state, I swooped her up in my arms and sprinted to the register. The Paymaster was mine!

Have you had a similar treasure hunting experience? What's your favorite vintage find?
