Okay, okay, so this guide is nothing more than a thinly veiled list of the things I’d like to give and get this year. It’s no secret that I view the world through a romantic lens and the same goes for presents under the tree. Whether it’s a charming print, some unexpected little-old-lady slippers or a perfectly hand-thrown vase, I’m itching to give all my favorite ladies a bit of old-fashioned sweetness. — Amy M.

love! i treated myself to the rose water from brook farm!
If you keep posting pics like this you’re going to make me revert to my old ways of collecting antiques. That is not fair. Please stop. :) ~ karen
I am right there with you. I definitely LOVE the romantic old-timeyness of the items you chose. I pretty much live my life surrounded by such things!
I am a collector, but I’ve never found any things this cool
(except the scissors, which I own)! Thanks for sharing. :)
These are great, Amy!
I feel like I’ve seen the scissors on d*s before as a gift guide or some other feature, they look familiar. hmm…
cute ideas! love it.
I LOVE that print! I might have to hunt that down as a gift for myself.
lovely!! such a perfect collection! I would love the lamp, print, stork scissors and that carpet bag is speaking to me. It’s saying ‘A handbag, Mr. Worthing?’ :) Here’s to romantic lenses – me too.
the fountain pen is beautiful!
soooo…..nice
