What to do on a rainy Seattle day: Go antiquing
Monday, December 29, 2014
In America, Boxing Day is better known as the After-Christmas Sale Day. Instead of duking it out at the mall, however, we ended up spending the afternoon sifting through Antiques at Pike Place, a veritable treasure trove of vintage finds in Seattle. One day after Christmas, we were daydreaming about next year's tree, which we'd love to fill with kitschy vintage baubles. This store had plenty of it—we're talking everything from little Beatles-emblazoned jukeboxes to Battlestar Gallactica-themed ornaments to slice-of-Americana cowboy boots. There were also plenty of things we would love to find sitting under the tree on Christmas morning: cool vintage hard shell luggage, trippy old school blenders fit for Megan Draper's pad, and a beautiful lit globe from the 1930s. Here's hoping that if we're very, very good in 2015, maybe Santa will fill our home with these gorgeous finds come next Christmas!

Hi !
ReplyDeleteI didn't know this custom and I find it very interesting !
It makes me want to discovering how every country practices the various parties and to learn more about those that we don't know ( especially here in France )
Well, I would love to have a place like this the day after Christmas.
Good luck with your blog and happy new year to you !
