hello there bloggers! i had to share this with you today since this has to be one of the coolest gifts i've ever received "just because"... seriously? it is so freaking cool - my friend michele got this for me and it was waiting in my studio when i got home. what is it you ask? it's a "iRetrofone" from etsy. it's a vintage styled phone base where you dock your iphone and get this, it actually works! it comes with the adapter to plug into your iphone so you actually make your calls on the iphone and speak in the handset. plus if you download the rotary dial app from itunes (which i already had) you can literally dial and use your iphone on this phone! so vintage, so random, so ME! i truly love it. perfect in my studio with it's mix of vintage style with today's iphone technology. amazing!
and speaking of mixing up vintage with today's style, i was a guest on today's paperclipping.com round table with hosts noell and izzy hyman along with nancy nally from scrapbook update, and my buddy ali edwards. i am so excited to share this with all of you - check it out here and enjoy listening... so ask yourself "how vintage are you?"...t!m





That is way cool!!!

That has got to be the coolest iPhone dock I've ever seen! Looks like a great use for all of the phones people are getting rid of. And it suits you to a tee!
