Hi all! I wanted to put a fun event on your radar. Jennifer Perkins <span id="goog_752610491"></span><span id="goog_752610492"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a>is hosting a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/463772417121734/">De-Stash Bash</a> at the TOMS Shoes on S. Congress April 26th from 11-5pm. Her recommendation is to think of it like a group arts and crafts garage sale. <br />
<br />
According to Jennifer this event will be like Michaels, Hobby Lobby, Etsy and a flea market all rolled into one without the long lines, politics, postage fees and dust. Plus there will be a band and free drinks.<br />

Some of Austin’s craftiest people are coming together to set up shop and help others start their own crafty adventures. Don’t come looking for finished items, this is all about the supplies. The artists involved are clearing out their craft closets for a major de-stash! Here are a few things you might find: Vintage beads, sewing trim, collage ephemera, yarn, raft books and magazines, fabric (new and vintage), buttons, scrapbook supplies, and jewelry findings.<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As some of you know, prior to my life in the antiques business, I was an illustrator and graphic designer in the advertising and publishing world. And although this post has more to do with modernity than antiquity, the dormant "art director" part of me can't help sharing this clever video that was produced for <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOXQo7nURs0">IKEA</a> by the talented agency <a href="http://www.bartleboglehegarty.com/shanghai/">BBH Asia Pacific</a>.</span><br />
<div style="min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So, you know how they say imitation is the greatest form of flattery? Well, Ikea's new ad promoting its most recent catalogue "bookbook" is a different kind of video for IKEA; it’s sort of a satire/homage to Apple with just a hint of mockery… And the result is hysterical.</span><br />
<div style="min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Watch as “Chief Design Guru” Jorgen Eghammer introduces the brand’s latest hi-tech innovation with lines like, "… with an endless battery, page flicking technology, and thousands of pre-installed products, the paper catalogue is set to revolutionize the way people use technology in their homes." And listen for other quotes by Eghammer like, "The 2015 Ikea catalogue comes fully charged and the battery is eternal," and "If you want to share a particularly inspiring item, you literally share it!"</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I'm considering kissing both of the inventors of <a href="http://instagram.com/thevintagelaundry">Instagram</a> square on the lips! I love this app! Lately, many of my mornings (and evenings and afternoons and all the spaces in between) are spent scrolling through the pictures and videos of my fellow vintage dealers, friends and family that I follow. One might think that this app is solely image-based, but, in fact, it has an auditory element, as well… the whooshing noise that my work deadlines make as they go by, for example!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you are unfamiliar with Instagram, it's an online mobile photo-sharing, video-sharing and social networking service that enables its users to take pictures and videos, apply digital filters to them, and share them on a variety of social networking services, such as <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheVintageLaundry">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/vintagelaundry">Twitter</a>, <a href="http://thevintagelaundry.tumblr.com/">Tumblr</a> and <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/thevintagelaundry/">Flickr</a>. In short, Instagram has increased my engagement with like-minded entrepreneurs immensely. I can search by keywords (via hashtags) or search users with the name of a person or business. It's addictive! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Here are some of the recent photos I've posted on <a href="http://instagram.com/thevintagelaundry">my Instagram</a>… check them out and see what my business and I have been up to… and if you are inclined, follow us, too!</span><br />

I am not, intrinsically, one of those people put in this world to meet deadlines. Despite this handicap, I persist in trying. I missed the reveal for the DIY upcycled champagne lamps on <a href="http://thevintagelaundress.blogspot.com/2014/01/makers-monday-diy-champagne-lamps.html">Makers Monday</a>. So, I thought I could try and save face and sneak by with a Tuesday Ta Da post to show you how they turned out, but unfortunately <span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I committed to a four day show out of town last week and simply didn't finish what I started. This serves as a brilliant illustration of how I've </span>made a much closer acquaintance with over-committing than I am entirely happy with … </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, basically, what I'm saying is … I got nothin.<br />
<br />
Perhaps I can get my "To Do List" done by next Monday!</div>

<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It has been proven to me again, and again that life is a great unfolding ... that opportunities, wisdom, and understanding will be revealed to me as I go along. I wait, as patiently as an instant-gratification junky can wait, for cues from the universe as to what I should fix my gaze and energies upon next. But here's the thing … and I hate "The Thing" …especially "my" thing. Because my thing is … STARTING. I'm a marvelous starter, a comer-upper of great ideas, an enthusiastic believer that if you work and live and love hard enough that everything is possible. I've started hundreds of things, DIY projects, blog posts, paintings, book writings, entrepreneurial ventures, relationships, conversations, thoughts, sentences … the list is endless and more than a little embarrassing. But here's my "Un-Thing" … FINISHING. I'm like the opposite, evil twin of a premature ejaculation … the iceman never cometh, if you know what I'm sayin'.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">And, naturally, the only logical next step in my ever-so-cluttered mind is to start a new project … (insert face-palm.) The new project is a book (insert combination heavy sigh, face-palm with an eye roll dismount.) The chapters are good-natured pokes at all that is me, but are also turning out to be a kind of love letters to myself and to others that share "The Thing." Writing about this has offered me a revelation that although I want to escape, running and screaming from this utterly frustrating habit I have of putting off till tomorrow what I could do the day after tomorrow - I've just decided to embrace it. Because, as they say, you are defined not so much by your imperfect moments, but by your reactions to them. </span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So, only time will tell if I can see this "reaction" through to the end … wish me luck, think "finishing thoughts" and if necessary shame me into completing and publishing it.</span></span></div>

Made from 100% morose introspection and existential crisis, she was founded in Alamogordo, New Mexico in 1965. She played in the White Sands Basin Range where, twenty years earlier, the Trinity nuclear (atomic) bomb was tested (which explains a lot.) She contains more than 75% of the world's eyebrow hair (see nuclear bomb) and in a blind taste test, 2 out of 5 children tested chose LeAnn Stephenson as their mother.</span></span></div>

We have a crazy cat. She's called Eva June. She's a beautiful Maine Coon with striking yellow-green eyes . . . . she's also the spawn of Satan . . . wicked, evil, mean, and totally unsocial. She won't let anyone touch her, except me and on occasion my daughter, who's her Mom (but not her real Mom). Most of the time I want to dragon-kick her across the room for using the furniture as her own personal scratching post or string her up by her elbows for hacking up little kitty cigars that I will, without fail, step in with bare feet. But, for some reason, when she does want to cuddle, I'm her girl. Which makes me fairly sure that if we were trapped in the house in a blizzard and everyone died . . . . She'd totally eat me last.<br>
<br>
I tell you that to tell you this, Christmas decorating at our house is like hugging our crazy cat, "Evil June:" a little dangerous, a little warm, and a lot of awesome. Tradition follows that we crank up the psychotically-challenged Christmas carols in her honor. To start, we play the old standard, "Do You Hear What I Hear?" to soothe Eva's schizophrenia. We celebrate her multiple personalities with, "We Three Kings of Disorient Are" and poke fun at her paranoia with, "Santa Claws Is Coming To Get You." As a tribute to her dementia we play, "I 'Think' I'll Be Home For Christmas" followed closely by her personality disorder's favorite, "You Better Watch Out, I'm Gonna Cry, I'm Gonna Pee, Maybe I'll Tell You Why." And finally we all join in with a rousing-ly manic rendition of, "Deck the Halls and Walls and House and Lawn and Streets and Office and the Stores and the Cars and the Buses and Trucks and Trees
and Fire Hydrants and . . ." <br>

My girl baby is in the middle of her sophomore year at university. My boy baby is in the middle of the exciting ordeal of applying to universities he would like to attend next Fall after he graduates from high school this June. He would like to be a filmmaker and is concentrating his search on universities that have exemplary Radio-Television-Film colleges. Austin's very own University of Texas is well-known for its program and boasts some very successful alumni. Topping my son's list of favorite directors and screenwriters is fellow Texan and UT alumnus, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0027572/">Wes Anderson.</a><br />
<br />
Which brings me to today's Simply Brilliant talent. Anderson's next film will be entitled <a href="http://www.grandbudapesthotel.com/"><i></i></a><i><a href="http://www.grandbudapesthotel.com/" title="The Grand Budapest Hotel">The Grand Budapest Hotel</a></i> and will star his regular collaborators Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, and
Jason Schwartzman, along with many others cited below. It recounts the adventures of Gustave H., a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and Zero Moustafa, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for an enormous family fortune - all against the back-drop of a suddenly and dramatically changing Continent.<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The life that I think I lead and the actual life that I have are two distinctly different states of being. Each comes with its own appalling revelations and pace. That is to say, that the past week or so has left me a little ruffled, unsure of myself, and questioning every move. I appall this state of being and I have something to say to these feelings … and I'm sorry to say it involves two words and one finger.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hence, the touch-y, feel-y quote above. Just needed to remind myself to live an authentic life and relish the messy unplanned parts, as well as the perfectly planned ones.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22px; text-align: justify;">Thanksgiving has come and gone. Black Friday is underway. Merry old soul or not, the Christmas season is officially upon us. And, this Monday will mark what is called "Cyber Monday," which to me, sounds a lot like the business-end of a pervy 1-900-number conversation, only online. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22px; text-align: justify;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22px; text-align: justify;">This year, my sugar plum imagine-ings have been slow in coming - my festive spirit missed it's flight and is on stand-by, and I'm thinkin' this lack of merriment basically makes me a heathen! And as it turns out, my children and the Hubbs agree with the "you-be-a-grinch" diagnosis. So, I've put together a Christmas playlist on <a href="http://thevintagelaundry.com/">The Vintage Laundry</a> Spotify and I wanna share.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">We at the Vintage Laundry are kind of partial to pink, and when we pair it with gold and make it all vintage, well, all we can say is GIRL </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">PLEASE</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">!! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In our opinion, this lovely combo can make anything more elegant, without a smidgen of pretentiousness. We've taken some gold-plated flatware and gold-rimmed vintage plates, paired them with some pink glass stems, finished it off with vintage Damask napkins and Presto! ...your table is a showstopper!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So, forget </span>silver and gold this year and check out <a href="http://thevintagelaundry.com/">The Vintage Laundry</a> for an arsenal of pink and gold vintage entertaining essentials to make your holiday table unforgettable this year!</div>

</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I'm an antique show slut.</span></span><br />
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I visit shows all year long, selling and shopping. Nothing gives me greater pleasure than visiting with and making purchases from my fellow vintage and antique dealer friends.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">One of my all-time favorite shows is <a href="http://www.antiqueweekend.com/calendar.htm">Antiques Weekend in Round Top, Texas</a>. Round Top, in case you're unaware, is the crack cocaine of the antique's show world and happens to be going on right this very minute (September 21 - October 5, 2013!) The field that I set up in is called The Texas Rose and is located directly across from Marburger Farms at 2075 South State Highway 237, Round Top, Texas 78954. You'll find directions from Dallas, Houston, Austin and San Antonio <a href="http://www.texasroseshow.com/Directions.htm">here</a>.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Bottom line, I "owe" this show; I wouldn't own my own business or be an out-of-control vintage collector (AKA hoarder) without it! And the only shopping advice I have to offer is to forget portion control … it is futile! … there are just too many vintage and antique goodies to pass up!</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<span style="line-height: 15px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I just drooled …hmmm … perhaps an intervention is in order …</span></span></div>

**Note**<br />
I emailed these clips and photos to my talented son, Noah, and he put this video together for me. He even supplied the music for it! That's him on the guitar, playing one of his original tunes!! </div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #454545;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #454545;">I admit freely, without apology to anyone, that I'm a collector slash hoarder slash "if-you-don't-want-it-I'll-take-it" kinda chick. If someone put it in a garage sale, I bought it. If someone trashed it, I dumpster dived it. There is not a minimalist bone in my body and I have the junk to prove it. I come by this green-recycler-obsessive-compulsive behavior, not because I abhor overflowing landfills (which I do,) but because I'm neurotic - and I'm only sorta kidding here!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #454545;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #454545;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #454545;">So, to make myself feel better about all that, I've decided to resurrect a weekly post that I began a few years ago and then let wane. It's called "Thingy Thursday" and as the name suggests, it will serve as a vehicle to showcase collectors and the "thingies" they collect. The plan is to begin with my own personal collections next Thursday, accompanied by specifics and rules and regs for a contest we'll be hosting on our <a href="http://instagram.com/thevintagelaundry">Instagram</a> and <a href="http://pinterest.com/vintagelaundry/pins/">Pinterest.</a></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #454545;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #454545;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #454545;">But while you wait with baited breath for next week's "Thingy Thursday" post, I have a few archived posts that I would like to share with you from my friends, <a href="http://thevintagelaundress.blogspot.com/2010/05/thingy-thursday-stan-williams.html">Stan Williams,</a> author of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Find-Housing-Decorating-Treasures/dp/0307406253/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1369309095&sr=8-1&keywords=the+find+the+housing+works+book">The Find </a>(also known as <a href="http://elegantthrifter.blogspot.com/">The Elegant Thrifter</a>) and <a href="http://thevintagelaundress.blogspot.com/2010/05/thingy-thursday-lynn-goldfinger-abram.html">Lynn Goldfinger-Abram</a>, the woman behind the marvelous online store, <a href="http://www.parishotelboutique.com/store/lobby.php">The Paris Hotel Boutique.</a></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #454545;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #454545;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #454545;">Take a look and walk away, as I did, with a case or two of collection envy!</span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://rpc.technorati.com/rpc/ping</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10848081682033156847noreply@blogger.com3Austin, TX 78738, USA30.2966026 -97.97018459999998230.0772771 -98.292908099999977 30.5159281 -97.647461099999987tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068205847677107121.post-5314332236427456982013-09-04T19:35:00.002-07:002013-09-04T19:35:20.150-07:00Want It Wednesdays: Cheetah, Cheetah, Pumpkin Eater<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
