Retro Holiday Party

I can't believe it's almost December!  We had our first snowfall last week, so now I'm thinking about the holidays.  Specifically, today I'm thinking about holiday parties... I won't be throwing one this year, but if I did, I'd want it to look something like this:

Dorothy Thorpe Style Lowball Glasses, Available from Pillowsophi on Etsy
Crochet Poinsettia by BobbiLewin on Etsy
Pair of Hans Wegner Danish Modern Chairs, Available from thecircamodern on Etsy
Luminarc Ruby Red Cavalier Glasses, Available from Pillowsophi on Etsy
Vintage Black Party Dress, Available from Conjurers on Etsy
Vintage Christmas Lights, Available from AloofNewWhimsy on Etsy
I'd love to hear about your plans for the holidays!  Will you be throwing or attending any parties?  Do you have a favourite party theme?

Vintage Cottage, Part III: More Mid Century Modern Treasures!

And now, I present to you the third and final installment of the "Vintage Cottage" miniseries.  Without further ado, here are the featured items...

There are two of these fabulous mid century modern chairs at Grandma's cottage:

My Grandpa brought this (dusty - sorry!) wooden hippo back from one of his trips to South Africa (where he traveled when he worked for Inco, as they had mines there):

Next up, this retro set of aqua salt and pepper shakers:
