Indecisive Bathroom Decor Decisions...

Sometimes I'm not very good at deciding what I want to do,this is especially true in my home decor.If I can't find what I want I'll just go without until I find something just right.Other times I think I know what I want and half way into the project I change my mind.This is what happened with my bathroom.Sadly AFTER I painted it so I get to paint it again.It has high ceilings.I don't look forward to that again.Before I left California I bought this barkcloth curtain panel at an estate sale.

I finally got around to listing it and then the next day pulled the listing because I decided it would make for an awesome shower curtain!The problem is I only have one bathroom in my new house which meant my atomic shower curtain and my Miller Studio fishes weren't going to work.

I put the shower curtain on Ebay and the fish are on Etsy

Now do you guys think I should paint my bathroom chartreuse or pink?And as far as wall hangings I'm thinking swans or poodles,which do you think is more fitting with the curtain?

Poodles from SkipperJack on etsy.


It'll be a bit down the road but eventually I'm going to get this sink (I think,there are so many choices its hard for a gal to decide) I saw from vintagetub.com

I want to redo the floor which means that I have to have the money for the new tub,toilet and sink too since we'd want to do the floors first before we put those things in.Why are my projects always so expensive?I want hubs to lay hexagon floor tiles like this photo courtesy of Katyelliott.com

Munsters,Poodles and Pyrex,Oh My!

I haven't been doing a lot of vintage hunting lately which has been hard.I'm trying to save money and I don't know if its because of the Halloween season but around these parts all the prices have gone up making it hard to get anything for the point of reselling or heck even for personal collecting!I did get some cool things yesterday though.


I picked up a few vintage poodle figurines from the estate of a woman that had over 500!I'll be listing some in the shop,others I couldn't let go of.Like these.Well,more so my daughter told me that I'm keeping these for her.Ok dear.

This Pyrex fridge dish in the Gooseberry pattern I got for my friend Dana who has a pink kitchen,I live vicariously through her.My husband has told me I could have a pink kitchen again but I've invested too much into aqua and red to start over.I think I've mentioned that before...I repeat myself sometimes.

This poodle oil and vinegar set I adore!I keep telling myself I'm not going to keep it and that it will make it into the shop.We'll see who wins.

and last but not least my personal favorite (and sorry guys this one is sticking with me) is a 1964 Herman Munster!He doesn't talk anymore but I still love the guy.So does Heidi though and she won't give him back,hmph!

Oddles of Poodles...

I had some REALLY cute elephant figurines I was going to show off here on my blog but the sales fairy was working overtime for me yesterday and I had my Etsy shop wiped out twice in 24 hours!Amazing!I got some more things listed last night and stayed up way too late doing so.I have a ton of errands to do today and that should be interesting since my body is telling me I over did it yesterday so the idea of walking all over town doesnt seem like a ton of fun but bills need to be paid and packages must be sent off.

Here is a mama poodles with her babies:



and a set of 2 poodles:



and then I need your opinion.... I listed this Reja necklace and bracelet last night:

I listed it at $49.99 which I think is very fair since if you look at what just a single piece of vintage Reja jewelry goes for on Ebay you'd know what I'm saying but at the same time for what I got it for makes me feel guilty,especially since it's such a jump in price compared to the other items in my shop,and I know Etsy and Ebay are totally different and I didnt see any Reja pieces listed on Etsy...I mean I have 4 months for it sell at that price and if it doesnt oh boo hoo I'm out 20 cents but I'd rather have a sale over it...I suppose I believe in the phrase "it's better to make a fast dime than a slow quarter" a little too much,my hubby is forever griping at me for selling things too cheap but I still like people to feel like they're getting a good deal.Do you think it's a fair price or should I go down?Or Up?
