Luxe Lifestyle: Favorite New Purchase: Brass Cachepot

Our love for brass accessories does not stop at animal figurines...I recently scored this vintage brass cachepot of eBay! I especially love the rope and tassel detail. It's perfect for orchids!

Luxe Decor: Door Knockers

Remember my post last week on all of the surprising finds at Home Depot?! Well in those Luxe Picks I had included this brass shell door knocker:
 
 
It just so happens that I'm in the market for a new door knocker, as one of my poor little starfish's arms got chipped while a Christmas wreath took its place.
 
 
These beachy door knockers complement our Key West style home so well! And the beautiful brass and nickel finishes give a very luxe look, when so often beachy decor=cheesy decor.  I just may go with the nickel version of the scalloped shell as it pairs well with the rest of our hardware.

Whether you go for a coastal look, traditonal, whisimcal or a classic ring, door knockers are an accessory for your entry not to be overlooked! After all, it's all about the first impression, isn't it?!
(A brightly colored door doesn't hurt either)

Do tell, which door knocker fits your home's style?

Luxe Decor & Entertaining: Champagne Buckets

When Lauren & I vacationed in Paris and the South of France a couple of summers ago, we acquired a love (ok, border line obsession) for champagne buckets.  Whether we were at a cafe or on the beach, it  seemed the French served everything in one.  Of course wine and champagne, but even water and bottled Diet Coke!  So chic!
Upon our return we scoured ebay for vintage silver champagne buckets so we too can live fancy like the French!
We also find they are a great accessories to use around the house.

Luxe Design: Luxe Online Vintage Finds

We've posted about some of our favorite local haunts before (here and here) for finding those great one-of-a-kind, vintage finds.  And though West Palm Beach is an antique mecca, sometimes you just can't beat the finds from online resources like Ebay and Etsy. 
Here are some of my recent luxe finds:
 
Not exactly a steal, but furniture with good Greek Key detail can be hard to come by.  This entire Etsy store is full of great regency items!
Greek Key Cosole

We love vintage champagne buckets, whether for chilling champagne on a bar cart or as a cachepot for an orchid! Ebay has tons of vintage buckets at great prices. 

A great price for a mirror style that usually garners a much higher price tag.

 
These brass faux bamboo hangers are so glam! Maybe for Christin's new dressing room?! 

Another great price on this regency cart.  Almost the exact style of my cart!

Would love these urns to use as planters or to fill with coral and shells.

These stools just need a facelift with some new upholstery and would be perfect in a living room or under a console table.

I'm always looking for more storage for my growing supply of magazines and catalogs!

Have you had any good online vintage finds lately?
