Sunday Antique Market Finds




Today's a lovely sunny but cold day in Toronto. I got up super late but made it to the antique market in time. I got lucky because I found a couple of things I've been looking for. I found a lovely silver antique cake/pie plate that will be lovely for our wedding. I also scored this antique camera that's dated 1902. I love photography and have been meaning to purchase one of these for a while now. It will also work with the vintage decor for our wedding. Right now it's sitting on my shelf and I love it!

I hope you are all having a wonderful Sunday. Mine is all now chores but maybe I'll have time for a DIY project that I can tell you about later.

Sunday Antique Market Finds

On Sundays, I love to visit the St. Lawrence Antique Market. I often pop by and browse until something rare and unique catches my eye. I love all things vintage and antique. Unfortunately, my boyfriend thinks the words vintage and antique apply strictly to things that are dirty and undesired by others. The first thing he always asks me is how old the items are and if they have been sanitized lol! Anyways, this week I got extra lucky and found two things I love. I found this makeup and perfume tray from the 50s. I love the details in the metal, the mirrored top and the three lipstick holders. 
I also purchased these deep blue bottles. I love their rich colour and the way it changes when light reflects through them. They are great sitting on a window sill and will make great vases.
 What's your take on things that are antique and vintage? Are you an antique market girl and collector like me or do you prefer things that are new and modern?
