Yes, that’s an odd headline, but it got your attention. I’ve always thought it was interesting that most of us are disgusted by fat and obese people in general, but yet no one seems to care that Santa is a regular roly-poly. But really, could you imagine Santa on diet pills? Instead of the jovial […]
I’ve found that it’s virtually impossible to get TV stands that mimic a home’s antique look without spending a small fortune to get them. If you’re lucky, you may find something at an auction or antique shop, but in most cases, they’re either very expensive or completely banged up.
So what about you, readers? Any recommendations […]
For most people, insurance is something fairly simple. You buy health insurance, auto insurance, home insurance, and maybe some life insurance, and you’re set.

Although…I kind of like the idea […]
I know Christmas is over, but that doesn’t mean you can’t plan for next year. These unique vintage hangtags would look great on almost any gift, especially hand-made, antique, or old-fashioned gifts. It may not be quite right for your cousin’s Playstation 3, though.
Of course, if you don’t feel like buying these tags, you could […]
Due to a relative lack of time these days, I’ve decided that instead of my usual posts, I’ll be doing a series of posts on some of my favorite doll finds around the web. Today, I’ll be focusing on this antique doll jewelry box that I found on Etsy. I’m not sure exactly how “antique” […]
