ring me up: vintage telephones

You know how some places just have a super fun vibe about them? (Think the opposite of this blah boring boringness). Well, over the holiday weekend I went to a fantabulous party at a fellow wedding industry pal's summer beach rental. A's home has such a wonderful feeling to it. You walk in and know that there is a lot of fun going on there! I told her I felt like I was at summer camp as I oohed and ahhed over all the quirky details in the place (an open skylight in the bathroom; a fireplace in the dining room complete with rotisserie, a kitchy mural of hawaii in the basement). I fell in love with two things in particular: a giant vintage flower farm hand painted wood sign (promise next time I go over I'll bring my camera), and a bubblegum pink rotary wall phone. Got me thinking .... hmmmm ... my studio could use a vintage phone, couldn't it? I found 3 phones I like so far (still searching for that perfect one).

1. Vintage mustard yellow telephone, Ebay.   2. Vintage aqua bell rotary telephone, Ebay.   3. Vintage aqua blue wall mounted telephone, Oldphoneworks.com

I'll keep an eye on your post... I'm loooking for a perfect aqua rotary phone, but with RJs to plug on my digital modem, lol... chartreuse also works for me!

Chartreuse is at the top of my list, too, Carla! Will post if I find a fab one : )
