Embroidered shoes and Flower mirror

I found these shoes by coincidence last year but found them to be too much really. But the style and pattern is really unique. They are designed by Kaffe Fassett (famous for his knitting patterns) Anyway if you are interested in buying them they are available at Decor in Copenhagen. This is a great vintage store on Israels Plads. So instead of shoes I swapped them for a bunch of orange french antique pearl flowers. Originally made as grave ornamentations. But I used them as a decoration for a mirror. Please comment if you like.

“Driftwood is the new Costa Rican mahogany”

More and more It´s totally 2009 and apparently becoming more trendy to salvage, remake and resell old stuff. And here is another great example of how to rebrand something as plain as driftwood. Carter and Cunningham, a joint venture between partners Mark Welsh and James Salaiz named after their mothers’ families. The two are handmaking mirrors, sculptures and furnishings from salvaged materials in clever combinations with beautiful ceramic pieces from James Salaiz.
