Say Cheese!

 
 
 

I am very fond of all things vintage but I especially love vintage cameras. I think they look great when grouped as a collection -





















Top row: "Photography Vignette" via Bright Bazaar and vintage camera collection, image via Etherian Home

Bottom row: image via Woman's Day, cameras in frames via The Design Files and vintage camera wall display via Unpllgd


and equally as good as stand alone pieces -




















Clockwise from the top left: image via here, Eastman Kodak Co Brownie movie camera from secondseed, vintage Kodak Flash Fun Hawk Eye camera, 1958 Samoca camera available from WellWudJaLookAtThat and vintage Polaroid Land Camera from goodygirlred


Vintage cameras take some great pictures -























Across the top: vintage photo and glass bottle display via Apartment Therapy, vintage photo collection and antique cabinet cards from becaruns

Along the bottom: "Lady by House" vintage photo, Original Vintage Photo of Table laid with Flowers from middayvintage and vintage paper ephemera kit from burstsofcreativity


and look great in pictures themselves -




















Clockwise from the top: "Camera Collection" photography print, "Shutterbug" retro inspired photographs by TCaponePhoto, "Savoy", "Leave Nothing Behind" and "Play" prints all available from Lola's Room - I love her work! "Blue Camera" print via onelittlemoment


 They are also lovely when adapted into more contemporary
works -


























On the left: Bill Brown's Pixel Camera wall decals found via Joe's Daily, "Cameras Hanging Out" print available from smalltower and "Geraldine with her Camera" print by poppoportraits

To the right: vintage Ansco camera printed pillows from intheseam, "Point and Click" print via ParadaCreations, green vintage camera watercolour print available from eastashleystudio, ceramic cameras available from Twine


Gorgeous methinks!

Happy weekend and don't forget to -

    Your son makes a sweet clown, the photos are so cool.
    Vintage cameras are so much more beautiful. I love old photos. They really fascinate me. I love the little blue camera and the typewriter is gorgeous too. xxx
