Instagram-ish

I always feel a little jealous when I see other bloggers' Instagram feeds. I don't have an iPhone, and my iPod Touch's camera isn't quite up to snuff. So in lieu of a post containing photos taken with Instagram, here are some pictures I took in my apartment on a day when the morning light was especially pretty.

I've been looking for an old rock collection for a while now, and I picked this one up at an estate sale last weekend.

The rose quartz is the star of the collection, in my opinion.

Community yard sales are sort of a tradition in Pittsburgh, and I went to one in Highland Park at the beginning of the month. I didn't have a whole lot of luck, but I did find this Native American clay pot for a whole lot less than a similar one I've been admiring at a local antique store.

This little tin came from the estate sale of a doctor. It was a great sale--with boxes and boxes of vintage pharmaceutical bottles. There was also a beautiful old Gladstone bag (that I reluctantly left behind on account of some mysterious, sticky staining) and a silly old postcard advertising a hypnotist (which I brought home).

And finally, the only "new" item in this post: a ceramic cat dish by Leah Goren. That pose just kills me!

  1. Great finds! That cat dish is adorable. My cat lies like that all the time and it always amuses me :)

    1. I bought that dish because it reminded me of one of my cats as well. Ah, the life of a crazy cat lady. ;)

  2. Aww such lovely things! I don't have an iphone either but I really don't like the Instagram filters... not cool, and way too trendy.

    1. It's not the filters as much as the convenience that I envy! I always seem to forget my camera, and it'd be nice to be able to snap photos while out and about using an iphone.

    1. Thank you! I've really been digging your blog, by the way; I'm pretty obsessed with the "Vintage Clothing Details" posts.
