We have had no rain for quite a long while, but thank the Lord above(!!), we have (at last check) a 70% chance of rain this weekend. Yay!! The days might very well be grey ones, but I’ve always loved the rain, and I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if I felt like just sitting by a window and watching it.
Have a great weekend!
the gorgeous patina of vintage barnwood, but in a porcelain tile
Love the texture and colors of a tin ceiling
a beautiful display of cherished photographs
I love this industrial side table (and you can build one, too, using the tutorial)
an old classic that I have never read (but should)
A happy couple — just look at the love in their eyes!
Check out the beautiful old windows in this abandoned building in New Mexico!
a wonderful handmade piece of furniture

Hi Kim, you post really got my vintage juices flowing. I always love old photos and I found 2 huge photos the other day when I was out junk’n. My Mom said to me on one of her visits “Why do you have pictures of people that you don’t know on your wall?”. I’m not sure other than I like them. One photo is a original of a lady from Blackfoot Idaho it’s an 18″X22″ in size. Now days that would cost a lot I can’t imagine what this poor farming family had to pay for them, maybe you would know if photography was less expensive back in the late 1800’s. Enjoy your weekend.

I totally get where you’re coming from, Joanne. I’ve recently started a small collection of found photos also. Something about them tugs at my heart. I’m slowly but surely scanning them in and sharing them on Flickr. I’m sure I’ll be sharing them with quotes, too, one of these days.
Home run as always Kim. Love the old patina and muted tones. Reading your Living Vintage Friday Favorites is one of the highlights of my week. Thanks ever so much.

Wow! Thanks so much, La Verne! That’s great to hear.
Love that tile, and saw some similar in a condo in Naples Fl this past summer. All of these are cool pics. TGIF, Kim.
