Metalic Vintage Owl

Owls were really popular in the 1960s and 1970s. Maybe it was due to their mysterious ways, or perhaps it's because they are wise, or maybe it is simply because they are adorable and cuddly. I am partial to the latter, myself. So here are some vintage picks with an owl theme. In fact, there is such an owl popularity that I decided to narrow the category down even more to give it a twist. Check out these items and their sellers on Etsy by clicking the links below.

Retro Butterflies

I often go outdoors with my children in the summer to relax near our garden among the trees. I often see an array of lovely butterflies as they dance with colorful elegance across the sky and onto our flowers. There is nothing like the musical symmetry of a butterfly in the sun. So, let's celebrate the beauty of summer with these decadent antiques. Here are the links to a few examples of etsy's vintage butterfly collection from various shops. Enjoy!
