Vintage Bathing Suits

Posted on | October 2, 2008 | 5 Comments

I feel like my mind keeps jumping all around. I start working on one room and then I get an idea for another. How about vintage bathing suit framed for my front hall? Since we live by the beach it might be perfect? I don’t want it to look to nick-knacky or grandma. I would have to find the perfect one. Here are a few I found on 1st dibs. A bit pricey. I am thinking about searching vintage shops and framing it myself. These sure are cute though! Check out more: 1stdibs.com.

I think it's a great idea. I've always been attracted to the framed vintage bathing suits at Indian Springs in Calistoga, CA. I don't think there are photos of them on their site, but here's the link to get the vibe of the place.
