Enviable Collections: Mobiles

So, I don't collect that many things. I collect bobby pins and barrettes pre-1960s, vintage Coach bags pre-1990s, and hanging mobiles. There are definitely other collections emerging . . . like 1950s dachshund accessories (scarves, brooches, handkerchiefs), but not in a quantity that I consider them collections (yet).

Today I'm sharing my mobile collection! If you saw the Etsy feature on my home, then you've already been introduced to my seagull mobile and perhaps the bottom 6" of James's handmade mobile, but here are the others:

Bi-Planes, purchased from TheOrangeCollective on Etsy

Whale Mobile, purchased from Projecteur on Etsy

 

Scandinavian Seal and Southwestern Mobile,

both purchased from OldVintageGoodies on Etsy

Fish Mobile, purchased from alittlemodern on Etsy

Sailboat Mobile, purchased from TheCottageCheese

Geometric Mobile (vintage-inspired), handmade by James (hubs)

 Seagull Mobile (my first mobile ever)

purchased at a local estate sale

Lucky for you, I found 2 duplicates (sailboat and seagull) and have no need for the same mobile, twice! So, I'm listing them in the shop today. They are both stunning, and I'm only parting with them because I already own them.

Where we dwell . . .

Just pictures today. Below you'll see many of our cherished items,

like my 50's bird mobile, wire dress form, mid century couch and chairs,

tulip lamp, and 1940's Patent Medicine sign.
