Smart Ass Has A New Home In Australia
This totally cute vintage graphic cartoon panel is from the Wesco-Reltex Company. Vibrant color! From the 60's era. Look below at the before and after photos. What a super Retro pillow cushion this turned out to be. Thanks to a customer in Australia little smart ass found a new home. She used vintage retro barkcloth as trim on the front with wide black ric rac braid. Then black and white striped linen on the back. Thank you Susan for sharing. It's so vintage sweet.

Catch-up or Sleep?
CHACO AWAKE |
CHACO ASLEEP |
Thought I would catch-up to some work in the office this afternoon for a little. My assistant at first was willing to help me but, I thought wrong. I looked up from my laptop only to see his head down on the settee. Sounds of snoring fills the air. I guess that walk in the park this morning made him sleepy.

Still Working On My Office & Studio
Wow! I have been so crazy busy out of my mine! When will I catch-up? So far I love this Retro settee in this room. It sits close to a fireplace in the studio. Real cozy. Soon I'll paint the walls. Love the plumberry color above. I have one wall picked out for that color. The organic green I love too. It's slowly getting there. An eclectic mix of vintage. I'll post more photos soon.

I Can't Believe....
.....It's a Girdle! The Playtex Corporation introduced this now famous variety of girdles in the 1960's. This new era girdle was made of Tweave fabric, a lightweight fabric made with Lycra. This 'I Can't Believe It's a Girdle' collection was super popular in the United States and Australia. I heard the Australians love them more. They did have quite a pretty design, comfortable and quite durable.
Actually, Playtex has been around since 1932. Founded by an inventor and industrialist. The original factory in New York produced ladies' swim caps and latex gloves. These days their operations are in Dover, Delaware.
