Ballerinas and Poodles


Both the lampshades for the ballerina lamps, and the white poodle family arrived today, and I am thrilled!!


Shades are perfect, perfect for the lamps!




Soooo cute!! I just love my latest additions!



I was a died in the wool cat and horse lover as a kid, so why the ballerinas and poodles is beyond me. All I know is, I adore them here in the pink room!! This used to be my room as a kid, and I guess I have some idealized version of the way it used to be. If you think I am trying to recapture my youth, you are 100% correct!!

Going to change this room around again. Seems to me I have done this a few times already. But what I want to do is get my old handmade dollhouse displayed in here, but... That will take some time and work.

At any rate, I didn't want the negative post I made yesterday to linger too long, I really do love the things I find on eBay, and I'm not going to let one witch keep me from finding mid-century treasures. :)

Thanks for all your comments.

Happy Monday!!!

  1. Cute stuff! I like the poodles and that little poodle printed card you have there. I appreciate the poodle stuff but have yet to put it into effect in my house. Some day when the right thing comes along I'm sure I will!

  2. The lamps look great! I'm glad you've not been put off ebay, but that certainly was a bad experience, how do they expect to keep people using the site when they act like that?!

  3. I was a dog lover and a horse rider as a kid (very much the tomboy), but I loved my pink musical jewelry box with the little twirling ballerina. I suppose we're more complex than we realize, huh?

  4. I must say, the shades match the ballerina lamps quite well. Congratulations. You're so good at the mixing and matching, I noticed.

    Glad to hear you decided to remain positive despite your unfortunate ebay experience. Good for you!

  11. I know I am trying to re-create my childhood...or what I wish it could've been. Ballerinas and poodles were a part of that scene and so I have a few figurines. I've never seen such a cool ballerina lamp, but the lampshades I remember.
