Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a lovely weekend and a wonderful Valentine’s Day spent with the ones you love most! I wanted to continue the love theme around here even though Valentine’s day has passed. I mean, what’s not to love about love, right! This week, I have gathered a little collection of heart themed vintage items to share with you all today. I love hearts! Here are some of my top favorites from Etsy’s wonderful vintage shops this week:
vintage 40s / 50s fascinator hat – RED HEART felt hat from Ms Tips
60s ivory pumps with original box and receipt . mid century heels . wedding shoes from Coral Vintage
Vintage Trifari Crown Turquoise Heart Pin with flower center from Charmed Kitty
Vintage 1950s HEARTS Wallpaper – Assortment of Colors from Snippets of Time
1950s “Hearts” Card Game from palimpsette
Vintage 1950’s Gold Tone Heart Shaped Pill or Trinket Box from Acoda Mercantile
Don’t you just love them all! I do! I especially love the apron! I have quite a little apron collection in my cupboard these days. I hope you all enjoy browsing through these lovely Etsy vintage shops as much as I did! I’ll be back next week with more fun vintage finds. Until then….
Happy Shopping!

I love your posts and especially admire your ability to find such treasures on Etsy each week. I want to know your process behind finding your vintage finds each week. You are just too savy!

Thank you Jennifer! That’s nice to know, I was just wondering the other day if anyone else really likes my monday posts. They are a lot of work but it’s one of My favorite things, so I keep doing them. I have always been a sucker for themes, and I love putting together collections based around them. The theme is the most important part. It can be anything. I do color combos a lot, or holidays, movies, animals, or even items like sweaters or eyeglasses. Then I search out what I am looking for on Etsy. It can take hours sometimes, but I love to shop vintage so it is fun. I look for items that I love, but also that are nicely photographed. I favorite a bunch, so that I have them all in one place that I can look at them. Then I narrow down my choices and create a collection of twelve. It’s probably my most labor intensive post of the week, but it also my favorites. Thanks so much for your comment!

I had a feeling they were a lot of work. Thanks so much for your detailed break down of how you find things. I get overwhelmed when I search Etsy sometimes it feels like Etsy, Pinterest, EBay and Craig’s List can suck me in to a black hole until my eyes have glazed over and my husband is checking for my pulse. So I was so envious to think you just magically and easily put these posts together. Your honesty is appreciated. Now I’m only left wondering, how many times you purchase an item you find while putting these Monday posts together…?

Sometimes I get sucked into the black hole of Etsy and Pinterest as well! And I am pretty good at restraining myself from making purchases, but sometimes, I just can’t help myself 🙂
