Congratulations on 100!! ✨

As a fellow lover of "weird vintage antique old things," this is my favorite newsletter in my inbox every time it arrives.

Hunting down vintage gifts is my year-long hobby - LOVE these ideas!

(If anyone is still on the hunt, I also suggest pairing a matchbook with an antique brass or enamel matchbook holder; cool antique books with spines for display; vintage hotel or restaurant ashtrays paired with incense (or with soap - they make great soap dishes!); and vintage wool sweaters.)

Thank you so much for reading and loving this space ✨

I love these gift ideas, too -- I had some similar ones brainstormed so I'm thinking a part II might be in order!

DIVINE. Saved this for when I had time to actually enjoy it and am gutted that I missed out on the striped salt shaker & pepper mill but I am ON EBAY RN looking for more #influenced 😂 also can’t believe how into the vintage towels I am. Even as a lifelong thrifter that’s not a category I’ve done much damage in - always stick to tablecloths/napkins etc and the occasional bed linen! You really have such a fantastic eye, and it shows in how thoughtful, beautiful, and FUN every TP post is - there is always something (usually many things!) surprising!! Big congrats on 💯 Also going to put on my vintage robe and pull out my vintage compact today with a little more excitement than I normally give them 😅

after discovering this through the bode post, this has become one of my favourite stacks - every time I see something you’ve picked that I have one of (this time, it’s the cherry pans - a random eBay purchase a few months ago), I congratulate myself on my taste 💅🏽

I loved reading this list! Thank you for all the time and thought, Glenn.💕 #43 made me giggle (I’ve given and received filled cigarette cases), bu I’m slightly traumatized by the copper fish mould-my grandmother had one and inflicted jello moulds on us. Ugh, green jello with carrots and celery…

I love that we all have jello trauma -- my grandmother used to mix in canned fruit cocktail and sprinkle in extra grapes but carrots and celery is a whole other level of yiiikes! I am determined to reverse the curse!

Just say no to jello moulds!💕
