It has been a very busy week for me, and I could really use a big ole chair to rest my tired legs. Now, you should probably know that my legs (and my design brain) are pretty picky about where they rest. So, this seemingly simple task can prove challenging at times.

Luckily, I know exactly where to go to find chairs that are right up my alley: CoMod!

I just love this shop…great vintage furniture and accessories. All online (and on Etsy no less, so it’s incredibly familiar and easy to buy). Love that.

I am going to head out for the weekend and wish you a very restful next couple of days. I’ll see you back here bright and early Monday.

Laura Mazurek is an eclectic vintage lover with an old soul. She’s translated her love of vintage treasures with that perfect aged patina into a fresh line she calls Violet Bella. As she says, “My line of jewelry, clothing and art speaks volumes of who I am. I am a lover of nature, a free spirit, an old soul and a constant creator. I adore vintage materials, granny squares, birds and leaves, patina, old keys and found objects. “


The handmade goodies in Violet Bella will speak to your inner bohemian flower child while still being completely wearable and accessible. For a handmade line created by one artist, there’s an overwhelming amount of selection, too! I had to narrow my favorites down to three: this cute sailor girl necklace, a brass owl necklace, and a pretty top made from a vintage pillowcase!

Receive 10% off anything in Violet Bella if you use the exclusive Papernstitch code, ‘papernstitch’ at checkout.
