What’s New Pussycat?

ALOT! It has been about a month or so since my last delicious post. That is too long, I apologize as it will not happen again (if I can help it!)

 

I have been spending a good portion of free time organizing my thoughts and ideas for The Retro Diva.  I have a schedule now for this lovely blog and I plan on bringing to you my research of the world of pin up and all things retro and wonderful!

There are many new items for sale at the TRD Etsy Store:

Even more fresh ideas coming soon and of course I let y’all know when they are listed!

ALSO:

The TRD blog has had a little makeover itself.  I gave her a new background and created the blog button to the left:

So If you are a Retro Diva- let the world know. Copy the code and paste the button to your favorite social network.

Stay tuned for more retro goodness.

 

Retro Home 1.0

 

Since I have known about our upcoming move (one week to go) I have been in search of the perfect retro home decorations. I am SUPER excited to decorate my new home and would like to share some of my favorite things I’ve found :)

These are 3 posters I will be getting for the house. The first 2 are for the bedroom- which will be done with a pin up theme. The 3rd I think will be in the living room. Keith Weesner is an amazing artist!

This fake-cake by CARAMIACAKES on Etsy is ADORABLE and would make me look like I was a baking betty even if I was out of energy. Spray vanilla extract in the air and who’d know?

 

  

I love this frame.  Some sort of sexy pin up picture needs to go in this.

More coming soon.

Home Sweet Retro Home.

On April 3rd, my family and I are moving our life a little more east. A bigger place, a nicer design and MORE ROOM. This move is what we have needed. It is also proving a major resource for retro research. This home already has its own retro flair- and with my loving touch I hope I can transform it into my own personal notch in another era.

Don’t forget that I have given myself a deadline of April 20th for the grand opening of The Retro Diva Etsy store! Make sure you set a reminder for when she opens! I want it to be big!!!

                              

Over the next couple of weeks I am going to share with you the research I find as I look for ideas for my new home. Please feel free to give input, via your own ideas or websites you trust. Please keep in mind my retro style.  I am so excited for this project!
