A Very Vintage Day: Couch Hunting

Twill and I spent the day together thrifting and vintage hunting, looking for apartment decor. I was on the hunt for a couch. We started at Cottage House where Twill found a great chair. Then we went to Broders for lunch, a great panini and salad were inhaled. And then off to Hunt and Gather. In the end, I think I found my couch! A great day spent with my favorite lady.

Twill wore a flannel skirt from American Apparel, a thrifted skinny leather belt, a J. Crew tank, a ruffly sweater from Ambiance San Fran, Target tights, Minnetonka Moccasins and an adorable locket from an estate sale, soon to hold a picture of me ;)

Background

Teacup Vintage was created by a duo of twenty-somethings who have shared 15 years of friendship. We have a love for all things vintage and child-friendly. Our adventures in vintage and thrifting started when we were wee tots and our grandmothers insisted on making all the dresses our moms couldn't find at the local thrift. We have fond memories of wearing those dresses (lovely little ladies with skinned knees), sitting criss-cross applesauce on hand crocheted afghans, wearing hundreds of "pearls", and sipping peppermint tea. When we were teenagers, we raided our mothers' closets and wore everything from hand-made 70's prom dresses to bell-bottoms (photos to come, you are in for a treat). We both went to University for education and continue to work with children as nannies and teachers. We love to write about vintage and handmade wares, children, tea parties, cooking, travel, and the big and small adventures in our everyday lives.
