Hunting & Gathering

Hunting for unique items is fun & even more fun when you just happen upon something to add to a collection. I enjoy collecting  & using unique vessels for flowers. I especially love the beauty in vintage perfume bottles. I ponder the thought of who enjoyed the container & contents before me…wondering where it came from, where it sat in the home, was it a special gift to that person or did they save-up their pennies to buy it for themselves? Was the perfume a sweet delicate scent or a spicy exotic one, or maybe it had musky or woodsy tones? Was it only used on special occasions or was it gently dabbed behind the ears daily? Hunting & gathering for vintage artifacts is a way to connect to and honor the past and a beautiful way to add to the treasured item’s  story. Perhaps it is the mystery in it all that is most intriguing… the stories continue…
