my new website and blog - Komedal Road . . .


Hi everyone!!

I just wanted to give you a little glimpse . . .
of what I have been up to lately - from my new Website and Blog . . .


Here are a few photos from the blog . . .
that will give you an idea of what it is all.

I hope you find them inspiring! :)








For a long time I felt the need to have a Website and Blog where I could share the many things that truly inspire me - a bit more than fresh vintage goods . . .

a place where I could also share my love of great designer fabrics . . .
food from my kitchen . . . time in my studio . . .
and a bit about my family and such.

So even though I knew it would be a step backward in some ways
and perhaps a bit more complicated . . .

I gave it some thought and decided to take the plunge!
 
I am happy to say - that for the first time since I started blogging . . .
it finally all makes sense to me!

Looking forward to the journey ahead - I have so much I want to share with you!!

Hope you will join me!! :)

Ludlow . . . opening soon!!


Ludlow is an amazing new lifestyle store . . .
opening this March here in Seattle!!

It is owned by my good friend Rick Rochon
and will be located in the Greenwood neighborhood of the city!


I stopped by yesterday to drop a few things off at his request . . .
and was completely blown away at his new space!!


Not only am a grateful for him to ask me to include a few things of his chosing . . .
but my heart began to pound as I saw so many things
that I began to covet immediately . . .


Rick is sooo very talented . . . and he has his own unique style . . .
weather you are at the ocean . . . in the city . . . or in the woods!!

I am quite sure that
Ludlow will soon become one of the really great "go-to" places in Seattle!!


Yes - I absolutely LOVE what he is doing with his store . . .
and I think you are going to love it too!!

 You can find more about his store on his Website here . . .
his blog here . . . and on Facebook here!!

Thank you Rick for including all of us on your journey . . .
but most important of all . . . thank you for your true gift of friendship!!

Wishing you much happiness . . . and much success!!

KIDS THRIFT . . .

 
In a few short weeks we will be launching . . .

Komedal Road

It is my hope that there will be a little something for EVERYONE . . .
including all sorts of great items in our ONLINE shop!

I truly believe that one can have an appreciation and desire for
beautiful, high-end quality items . . .
and at the same time - have the need to address ones own budget issues
especially now - in this economy!

That is why in late 2012
I decided to add a section to our Online shop called . . .

 . . . . .


There will mostly be gently-used quality items for children . . .


with a section for Women's clothing being added in the near future!

Please note that these are not necessarily vintage pieces . . .
but instead - great pieces that I find when I am out and about
looking for quality vintage items
for the Seabold Vintage Market's section of the shop!!


In the next few weeks
we will be filling up the KIDS THRIFT section of the shop with all sorts of . . .
great . . . simple . . . and classic pieces - with truly great pricing!!
 (most children's pieces will be under $10.00)

You see - I have always believed in
saving my pennies for that wonderful designer piece . . .
not only do I have true respect for the designer of the piece . . .
but also the quality of the fibers . . . and the quality of the workmanship.
I understand that the high price is a reflection of those things.
Even more so - when the pieces are made right here . . .
in the USA!!!

But, with that being said . . .
I also have a true understanding and appreciation for
gently-used quality clothing at a reasonable price!
Most children do not wear through their clothes at this age
and some items look like they have never been worn.

I personally like to live my life like this . . .

with one foot solidly on one side of the equation . . .
and one foot solidly on the other side of the equation . . .
with a true understanding and respect for both!!
I look forward to sharing more with you in the weeks to come . . .
Happy Thursday everyone!!

Coming soon . . .


I do love vintage - oh yes I do!! :)
But - I also love baking in the kitchen - among so many other things!!

This photo below is a glimpse
of what I have been working on for the new website/blog . . .

Komedal Road
( coming soon - February 2013 )


I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to share all of this with all of you!!

Yes - there will still be vintage goodness as I LOVE vintage!!
And yes - I am keeping Seabold Vintage Market just the way it is!!

But - it is my hope to broaden the scope just a bit . . .
and to share with you so many other things that truly inspire me!!

From baking in my little kitchen . . .
to thoughts on interior design and color inspiration.

From designing and working with textiles . . .
to designing a little girls clothing line.

From styling . . . to photography . . .
to planting a vegetable garden come spring.

I want to share with you the talents of my friends . . .
a bit of time with my family . . .
and of course . . . this lovely little island of ours.

But most of all . . .
I want it to be fun . . . and creative . . . to inspire all of you!!

I hope you will come along for the journey . . . :)

Komedal Road!!
( coming soon - February 2013 )

Folk Magazine . . .


In just over a year
Ben Ashby and his team . . .
have produced a Magazine they should be really proud of!!

It is called . . .

FOLK
Real.  American.  Living.


The Magazine started out with a manifesto all about . . .
sweet tea . . .  home-made pie . . .
and oh yes . . . the good old days!

I sat back and watched to see where they were going
with their lifestyle brand . . .
wondering just what it would end up looking like!

Well . . . long story short . . .
it went from being a Kentucky based Lifestyle Brand . . .
to an True American Lifestyle Brand . . .

it is fresh . . . and authentic . . .
and is all about Local and American made goods . . .
with great content . . . photography . . .
and interesting stories to be told

In one word . . . WONDERFUL!!

And - it really is all about . . .

Real.  American.  Living. 

Yes Ben Ashby . . . you and your team did it . . .
you had the confidence to take hold of the reins . . .
and to make something you are all proud of . . .

and in turn . . .
something that we all LOVE!!


Thank you so much for that!! :)

. . . . . . . . . . . .

So here is to a GREAT brand in the making!!!

Sit with me a moment . . . have a hot cocoa . . .

 

and let's be inspired - by all things . . .
FOLK!!










yes, yes - those are the boys of Barn House in one of the earlier issues!!
Gotta LOVE those boys!!

If you would like to see more inspiration . . .
just hop on over to their amazing new blog . . .


I truly think you will LOVE it!!
The Magazine currently comes out 6 times a year and is worth every penny!!
and . . .
if you want to see what this amazing Magazine is like first hand . . .

and I will pop it in the mail to you - just like that!!
 

This IS the GIVING season you know . . . :)
 Happy Holidays Everyone!!

Farmstead . . .


I would like to introduce you to a very talented man . . .
and one that is as kind as they come!!

His name is . . .
Garrett Platanitis!! 

( photo by the amazing Robin Laws! )

I first met Garrett at Barn House two summers ago . . .
and was in awe of his talents at first sight . . . 

I then spent some time with him at the Texas Shows last spring . . .
and then again at Barn House this past July!

I watched him shop . . . I watched him curate his collection . . .

a little farmhouse . . . a little modern . . .
mixing in a few organic oddities . . . 
and of course his cool vintage flannel collection . . .
and you have the makings for something wonderful!!

I knew that it was only a matter of time before he had a shop of his own!!


Well - this past fall he did it . . .
he opened up a very cool shop in Lincoln, CA.

please welcome . . .
Farmstead!!


beautiful . . . cool . . .


eclectic . . . with a warm rustic charm . . .


If you love a good mix of vintage . . .
you will absolutely LOVE Garrett's shop . . .

and now with the holidays approaching . . .
it is the perfect time to do a little shopping!!!

 

And if you are lucky enough . . .
Garrett might even have one of his cute pups with him . . .

Here is one of them . . . please meet Mr. Wonderful!!!


I am so happy . . . inspired . . . and grateful . . .
meeting Garrett on this crazy vintage journey!!!

Now - if I only lived a little closer!! :)

Sending much love to all of you this weekend!!!
