flashback friday - looking back 50 years

Have you ever thought about the whole time machine thing? If it was real, what era would you travel back to? {wishing I had that special Delorean} Do you, or have you saved stuff from your grandparents, your family heritage, your life, so you could reflect back on them at a later date? And share them with your kids and/or grandkids?

Do you like antique/vintage shopping? I do and I am lucky. I have a room in my house which is decorated with all things vintage. Most of which are from our family. I have so much stuff that I have started incorporating pieces into our modern decor throughout the house. Let's not ask Hubber what he thinks about this. Really, he doesn't mind because he's cool like that.

I love most things vintage. From furniture to clothes to old hair clips. I pretty much love it all. I like seeing how things were worn and how they looked back in the day and how some styles/trends have come back into our current mags. I always wonder who? what? where? when I find a new treasure. If only I could know the story behind every item. {dreaming}

In honor of one of my favorite things I thought it would be pretty awesome to look back 50 years for this week's flashback friday. Check out this stuff from 1961.
