Vanity Bottle Tags

Easily identify your self-care products 

with our 'toiletry tags', made from vintage silverware.

 A beautiful way to create a feel of luxury in 

your powder room, guest bath 

or en-suite, while reducing your 

consumption of plastics and packaging.

Head to your local zero-waste store for a refill

 of your self-care products like shampoo, 

conditioner, soap, lotion, etc;

 then pour them into some nice bottles 

and place one of our pretty 

hand-stamped tags on the bottle. 

Find them here in our Etsy shop.

Mexico - A Colour Story

I just returned from a glorious week in Mexico 

with five girlfriends. 

Lots of laughs, great shopping, delicious food and 

a relaxed vibe everywhere we went.

Here are photos of the vibrant colours and life of

 Bucerias, La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, Sayulita, 

Puerto Vallarta and the Bahia de Banderas.

Is it time to go back yet?

Lately

What's been keeping us busy lately...

 

Craftsmanship

We love the thrill of the hunt! 

And part of the thrill is discovering and identifying 

beautiful vintage silverware patterns.

The older the better! 

You just can't beat the craftsmanship and details of the past.

Pictured above is Jasmine, Joan, Evening Star and Rose.

Mystery surrounds as one is still left to be identified.

Recent Custom Work

I thought I would post a few pictures of 

recent custom work we have done.

I don't blog often as I find it quicker and easier

to pop a photo up on Facebook or Instagram.

But for those of you not on all the 

social media outlets, I will share some photos here ;)

Please join us over on Instagram and Facebook

Hand-Stamped Bridal Place Settings

We are pleased to let you know that we are now offering

our six piece bridal place setting as a 

whimsical mismatched set,

in addition to our popular heirloom set.

We come across such a variety of beautiful

patterns but often only a few matching.

We love the shabby-chic feel of combining patterns. 

The perfect touch of vintage for any wedding.

 Something old perhaps?

The patterns pictured in the photos above include

'Plume' 1935, 'Park Lane' 1936, 'Cotillion' 1937, 

'Ambassador' 1919, 'Coronation' 1936, 'Lovelace' 1936,

'Enchantress' 1937, 'Old English' & 'Revelation' 1953.

 

Vintage Love

Re-envisioning the graceful vintage objects 
that we find doesn't always mean 
that we alter their appearance.

We often use items in different ways
than originally designed. 
They are still purposeful, 
but visible regularly for all to enjoy.

The removable handle from the lid 

of a vintage silver chafing dish 

makes a stunning paperweight.

An antique cut crystal and sterling silver salt cellar, 

with tiny spoon, become a pretty way 

to keep beads and crystals sorted and contained.

This antique coaster of cut glass and 
sterling silver makes a beautiful catch-all.

At "...and then again" we have a passion 
for giving captivating vintage pieces a new vitality, 
while honouring their legacy. 
And we love connecting these delightful items 
with people who share this appreciation.
