I usually watch the #thriftShops for various elusive objects of desire. One such category is vintage mid-century coffee mugs.

We breezed through a long-lived antiques mall after lunch (Old Ottawa South) and stumbled across a vintage Fire King D-Handle, in the milk-glass colour I've long sought.

Yay! So I'm just anointing it with a spot of tea.

acquired a page from the 1957 cosmopolitan magazine featuring audrey hepburn during the promotional tour of funny face. photos by richard avedon. the paper is very delicate, I think I'll get it laminated to be safe.

📍 segunda mano furniture & decor

1: blouse I made from colorful filipiniana themed cloth (it's a thin cotton cloth that was very cheap and perfect for the summer).

2: interior of segunda mano -- this is on the top floor of makati cinema square.

3: poster of ay, manuela (1976) starring the quizons and alma moreno. they didn't have any horror movie posters.

4: assortment of postcards, books, stamps, and photos. I did find a 1957 magazine page featuring audrey hepburn.
