Got It Joburg West |
I really enjoy shopping online for vintage finds. No gas and the world is my oyster. This week I scored a few things I love.
First are three Fitz and Floyd palm giraffe candlesticks. Pictured here are two of them in my entryway.

The other vintage find is this 1970s wicker turtle table. I am trying to decide on what color I will paint him as the white finish looks rather blah.

1970s Vintage Wicker Turtle Table |
I am thinking about high gloss navy or coral or hot pink. I love these wicker animal tables and have two elephants, a snail, and now a turtle.

Painting wicker is a very easy DIY. I personally have had great luck with Rust-oleum American Accents Spray Paint (also called Painters Touch).
Speaking of color, I just snagged this pink rattan flatware I have had my eye on for a steal. It is now reduced from $48.00 a place setting to $17.97 at Anthropologie with free shipping over $50. Anthropologie has an additional 40% off all sale items right now. Discount in cart. Click here.

Love the Fitz and Floyd candlesticks!
ReplyDeleteThey are wonderful. I hope to find more.
DeleteHi Beth! Great idea to shop vintage finds online! Can your recommend your favorite online places to shop for them? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteNo secret sources - Etsy, eBay, Chairish.
DeleteFor your home, any fun color. But, if he were mine he would be a bright and preppy kelly green - my latest love.
ReplyDeleteThat's a fun idea - I have several rooms that are blue and white, so just the navy would work in those, so I need to decide where he goes.
DeleteI had a vintage wicker table restored a couple of years ago. They recommended Rust-oleum Painter's Touch 2X Ultra Cover Paint + Primer. Did a terrific job and super easy to use.
ReplyDeleteFrom what I have read, they are the same paint, just different packaging.
DeleteOMG!!!! Those F&F candlesticks are IT!!!! I am crazy over them! Terrific find!!! And that blue bracelet has my name written all over it. Wish I'd found that turtle! Can't remember if I ever told you that I stumbled upon my own elephant table in white after I saw yours and it was in perfect shape for $50! It's so fun following YOU!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou got a steal on the elephant table!
