Home decorating magazines are my guilty pleasure, but I’ve become discouraged with how much the decorating mags are about buy, buy, buy. Consumption of more and more new stuff.
However, many are beginning to sing the green song, and I am thrilled when I see vintage pieces being reused or repurposed.
Like these fabulous vintage 1950’s-era phones from Sweet Bella that have been rewired for modern telephone lines…
Ma Bell goes mod
Absolutely fabulous! These bad boys were featured in the September 2010 issue of House Beautiful. Not only do they look *way* cool, but they’re repurposed vintage! What more could you ask for?
(Well maybe a lower price, because at $210, they’re a little pricey. But definitely worth saving for!)
The things people won’t think of!
For your more urgent calls
We actually have at least one of these phones in storage. It was Mitza’s mom’s. Screaming bright yellow. Nice blog, Andj. You go, girl.
Thanks so much for stopping by Billie Monster!
I really love this phone idea! If only I could get my hands on one…
