the mint green typewriter



Oh golly am I excited to share with you the most recent gift from my parents, a mint green typewriter. Typewriters seem to be one of those items in an antique/thrift store that stop me in my tracks. Its impossibly hard to obey the “DO NOT TOUCH” signs posted on the historic beauties and have always wanted one to call my own. There have been many opportunities to buy one, but knowing that they are somewhat large, take up lots of shelf space, and are uber heavy…I needed to find one that fit perfectly within my decor. Over the years I haven’t been able to locate the perfect one at a perfect price.

Leave it to my dad to scope one out quickly. I got a text message one afternoon saying I bought this for you and there he was, the mint green beauty. It would be a perfect addition to my vintage collection of goodies. The only downside was that my dad had it with him back in Indiana, and I was in St.Louis. I waited and wait, and then this past holiday weekend we were united! If they weren’t so big, bulky and heavy, I’d own a gazillion of them.

  1. Are you going to use it (does it work?) or is it just for decoration? Hand-types notes or packaging details would be adorable for your etsy shop.
