A five year hiatus, for what reason, I am unsure. What has remained through these five years is my deep love for Art Deco and a constant yearning to be surrounded by it. I am ready to return to this blog, to return to writing and posting about the glamorous time period that I should be living in.</b></u></span><br />

<b>Since my last post in 2010 where I wrote from Cincinnati, skip ahead five years to 2015, and you'll find me typing from the beautiful Washington, DC landscape that I now call home. There are a lot of great Art Deco locales amidst the historical federal buildings that I can't wait to write about. Check back often for my future posts about all things Deco in the DC area.</b></u></span><br />

This is the day my husband and I get to surround ourselves with vintage modern art, furnishings and fashion. Oh what wonderful Art Deco finds will we find to buy? I have been on a long, unsuccessful quest for an Art Deco nude figurine powder jar. If anyone has found any for sale please let me know where. That is, one that is under $200.00. Art Deco isn’t cheap, that is for sure. I will be sure to post any treasure finds after the show.G.T. with Lovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07099486933429635214noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5929839264033973176.post-37105306254562088902010-01-30T13:05:00.001-08:002010-01-30T13:19:30.911-08:00ART DECO RESOURCES<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxbF0MQdlq7hZWmqAdQJvwbskCzUNrLqYgjx6rmfO-BKBF9vl9-4NCp1_XrFcvZfVjmBwrp8ph2YjhgKf3rufIF_EsW6jt7nb_0s_VsWdplyqVpuMahYb2aKDGihWJ8wMHHvP2WAESJIY/s1600-h/COP_envleope-ready.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" kt="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxbF0MQdlq7hZWmqAdQJvwbskCzUNrLqYgjx6rmfO-BKBF9vl9-4NCp1_XrFcvZfVjmBwrp8ph2YjhgKf3rufIF_EsW6jt7nb_0s_VsWdplyqVpuMahYb2aKDGihWJ8wMHHvP2WAESJIY/s320/COP_envleope-ready.jpg" /></a></div>Click the link above titled Art Deco Resources.G.T. with Lovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07099486933429635214noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5929839264033973176.post-35933233013441807452010-01-30T10:02:00.000-08:002010-01-30T10:03:22.858-08:00ART DECOG.T. with Lovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07099486933429635214noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5929839264033973176.post-9830840458050708532010-01-30T09:09:00.000-08:002010-01-30T09:09:24.962-08:00Art Deco Style - The Ultimate Guide to Art Deco<a href="http://www.art-deco-style.com/">Art Deco Style - The Ultimate Guide to Art Deco</a>G.T. with Lovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07099486933429635214noreply@blogger.com0
