I wanted to show you this gorgeous antique lace shawl what I happened to see the other day
Besides the fact that it's a truly breathtaking antique lace wedding veil, it has a pretty interesting story as well
VINTAGE VALENTINES - gift and decor ideas
To be honest I am not a huge fan of Valentines, I prefer to surprise my other half often with small gifts...so agree with me or not, I made a collection for you guys including my latest favourite Etsy finds, I really hope that all of you will find something that makes you smile
LATELY - A Fresh Start
First of all sorry for the silent January! I took a break to visit my family in Hungary and I needed some time to think about how to proceed with Orsa Maggiore Vintage in 2013
As you can see the blog changed a bit alrealdy and even more changes are about to come, plus I have a lot of plans with the shop too! So stay tuned, thanks a lot once again for your curiosity and keep up with the good job!
Hope you all had a very nice January and see you in 2013 more often - I sware :)
If you are curious what did I do at home, here you can check some of my fav pictures including great food we ate, my Mom's sweet place and the beautiful theater of Kecskemet
(and yes, I am planning to go a bit more often personal on the blog, hope you won't mind)
VINTAGE HOLIDAYS #3 - Mid-century Modern New Year's Eve Cocktail Party
If you decided to throw a New Years Eve Party at home but you are not sure how to make it cool but effortless, check out the ideas I was collecting for you!
We've just survived the Christmas dinner and lunch guests so what I don't want to do for sure is something fancy, elegant or complicated...what is easy but cool sticking to the vintage theme?
A mid-century modern cocktail party, what else!
First let's see some photos "mood board style" to get the feeling, than cocktail and apetizer recipes and finally Etsy finds as usual
Mid-century Modern New Years Eve Party
You couldn't go wrong with a bit of mid-century coolness, all you need is a record player stuffed with 60s music, a Med Man style cocktail bar and a buffet with some atomic era bowls, pyrex and cathrineholm filled with "chips and dips" and party snacks
VINTAGE HOLIDAYS - Antique Style Christmas Dinner
After the Retro Halloween and Shabby Chic Thanksgiving, this time I was collecting some interesting ideas how to decorate our home for a Christmas dinner in a vintage way.
I would do an elegant white and gold "Antique style Christmas Dinner", as usual I was collecting some inspiring pictures and great vintage finds from Etsy
If I manage, I would like to post a few pictures of the Christmas decor of our home and other places I will visit during the Holidays (yes, my future-in-laws for sure :)
Antique style Christmas Dinner
What is more chic than gold and white together? And it's so easy, all you need is a white base, let's say a beautiful old linen tablecloth, than just mix antique and modern, like antique silverware and modern glasses, and give it a unique taste with some interesting (inexpensive) details as cotton branches in a vase, lavender flowers in the drinks or white porcelain tableware hanging from the chandeliers
