A Domino Favorite: Secondhand (Love) Story

Domino: secondhand (love) story

I've been organizing my magazines this weekend -- finally finding all my old Dominos. I rediscovered this article that I loved so much when it came out in March 2007

Domino: secondhand (love) story

It's a fantastic piece about a Portland, ME, couple's quest for quirky, mostly vintage, things...

I adore the colorful patchwork of pillows...and this amazing closet with old paper lanterns...

I've posted the entire article on my flickr page, in large form if you want to read it. I'm hoping to turn my Domino revisits into a Sunday series here. What do you think?

Oh that looks beautiful. I never got a chance to buy my first domino mag. I would love to see more on here though.

I think you have an exquisite taste and always find the most gorgeous interesting things. That fuchsia tone closed is an absolute dream, and her faux suit is lovely. She is lovely. And Yay for Sunday Domino Series!
