New Goodies!!!

I stopped off at a couple of my favorite haunts recently and picked up some more goodies for the booth.

The brass lighting pieces were from a chandelier and look kind of goth hanging over the side of this old pram. And speaking of the pram, I have some tricks up my sleeve for a Halloween display that may be too over the top for Mission Road. River Market Antique Mall, watch out, my wheels are spinnin' (one project at a time, Kelly, one project at a time)!

Antlers, anyone?

And here are some shots from the booth with everything in place. When I walked in, everything had been stripped off of my vanity, but putting it all back together again was fun and I did some rearranging.

My new golden maiden looks great hanging out in the birdbath and the chalk horse and cauldron full of antlers on the farm table are a good Halloween asthetic; not sure how I'm going to explain that after Halloween since that's just me 3-6-5!

Doll baby head under glass, anyone?

Stay tuned for pics of my Grey Gardens party!!! I don't call by blog and business Eccentricities for nothin' baby.

Post Number One!!!

Welcome to Eccentricities! This is a blog about my interior design style and vintage finds.

Soon, you'll be able to find me at Amaze Boutique, a shop offering a great mix of original art and vintage finds on the northwest corner of 135th and Quivira in Overland Park, Kansas. The English pewter tea set is just one of the treasures I've amassed in my collection of goodies for the shop.

The hobnail lamp is one of a pair and the shades are so cute!

This chest of drawers has beautiful details.

And the matching vanity hearkens back to an age when women could leisurely take their time with makeup and hair. Who has that kind of schedule?!

I have a thing for chalk. This nude has fabulous colors and I love the pin-up girl style.

I've been on a flamingo kick lately.

There is something so intriguing about old mirrors. What kind of history has been reflected within them over the course of so many years?


Once again, wonderful details. Nothing new compares to this.

Wonderful old lamp with marble base.


And I thought this little fern stand needed some sprucing up. Before . . .

And after . . . The grey did the trick with a little distressing and antiquing.


I am so excited that I will finally be turning my love of treasure hunting and junking into something I can offer to others. I can hardly wait to get in and start styling. The ideas are continuously swirling! Please contact me if you are interested in purchasing anything you see on my site. Thanks for your support of my new venture!
