I have a new favorite website - -Mahar Drygoods. When you visit this website, you feel like you are transported — to a wonderful vintage store where you just feel like browsing (and buying) and staying awhile. You forget that you are at home — what every site hopes to achieve. Every time I go here I find myself talking to myself — “oooh, I like this — no, but look at this!” This site Must be shared with all! Here are a few of my favorite finds today (it’s ever-changing) :
|
Abominable Snowman Hooded Towel ($55); my son would love this for the winter baths or as the best costume ever — it has a great tail on the back. It also comes in pink as the Peppermint Monster (with striped peppermint tail); and also in purple or green. |
Brontosaurus Marionette ($38) — A beautiful wooden toy that would make a beautiful gift and decoration when not in use. |
|
Monster Finger Puppets ( 6 for $12)– Ok, does any one sense what I am drawn to recently? I must find “girl things” soon . . . |
Meg Rooks’ Collaged Suitcase ($115)– Vintage suitcases collaged with children’s book illustrations. Adorable and useful! |
The rest of the good news is that Mahar Drygoods has agreed to give Notebook readers FREE SHIPPING on orders of $60 and up, through October 31st, 2006! Simply enter the code “LENA” during checkout!
