I've been all smug, friends. Patting myself on the back and telling you that despite desperately wanting to keep every
MINTY good that crosses our doorstep, I've held strong. Been resolute. Well, up until now, I
have. However, everything changed when I found these amazing pieces below. Gorgeous vintage, woven Guatemalan textiles in the most beautiful rainbow of color and pattern. Oh yeah, and then there's the
mirrored frame. With
gold detailing to boot. Yep, I'm a goner, all that puffed-upedness gone out the door. Game changer.
It all started with the one above, now hanging in
Susie's amazing home. I discovered it at the
most fabulous estate sale. It belonged to a world traveler in every sense of the word. Quickly I snagged it and took it straight to MINTY. Then Susie saw it, couldn't resist the siren call of textile goodness, and promptly took it home. Done. It's the perfect partner to her sublimely framed vintage scarf.
Seems innocent enough, right? However, I could not stop thinking about its sisters. Long story short, a series of phone calls later and the remaining treasure was mine. My intentions were pure. I had every plan to offer these lovely textiles to you, our sweet MINTY friends. And then I brought them home and all hope was lost. I decided I can't part with the giant square beauty below, but I'm not completely greedy. The two other rectangular lovelies are available to a good home. They are bright and beautiful and also treated to that fabulous mirrored frame.
The rectangular panels measure 36" wide x 18" high and there are two available at $325 each. If you're interested, email us
here. First come, first served...once they're gone, sadly, they are all gone.
They measure approximately 29" wide x 24" high, with slight variation. Priced at $200 apiece (total of 4 available) they would make a wonderful addition to a gallery wall, or can easily hold their own as a singular bold statement.
If you would like more information on any of these pieces, please email us at
MINTY and we will happily provide all the details. In the meantime, I promise to keep my paws off all future MINTY finds. Pinkie swear.
Although, since I'm spilling all the beans today, I must confess that at this very moment I am having a very difficult time keeping those aforementioned paws off
this.
Mmm...tile, and flora, and a bit of crumbly intrigue. I like it.
Now, lets talk about this one for a second. What do we think of these kooky vintage macrame hangers? Boho fabulous or what the heck are you thinking Nelya? Because we may or may not have one available via MINTY. However, if your answer is the latter, well then, we never had this conversation, :0)

But, that's not all. As I mentioned, to say that these came from the home of a well-seasoned world traveller would be a huge understatement. Remember these sexy, shiny stools? Yep, same seasoned world traveler. Lucky for us, in addition to the Guatemalan panels, we have available these beautiful Panamanian Molas. Handmade using a reverse applique technique, these stunning textiles are wonderfully graphic.
Doesn't this place look like something straight out of a story book? Really, I think magical things happen here. See more of Dorothee Schumacher's wonderful home on the Selby, and do check out the precious farm animals. Like miniature ponies who sidle up to the fireplace whilst munching on carrots. See, I told you, magic.
That's right, '71! I could literally move right in. 
I swear, we have to muster every ounce of fortitude that we have in order to avoid hoarding these for ourselves. The little devil on my shoulder says, "keep it, keep it!" Alas, I must stay strong.
