Whale Really!

Melissa from Andromeda Vintage posted her recent finds lately and I fell in love with one of her items in particular! I don't know why I'm so obsessed with animal things right now, but I saw this whale and immediately emailed her to buy it!

He was so cute, but a little scuffed and worn. I broke out my Brasso and cleaned him up and now he's shiny!

I'm not sure where he'll live yet...I've been working on getting my upstairs office organized, so he might head up there...or he might hang out on a bookshelf in the living room. I'll post a photo once I figure that out!

And a note about Whale Really--"owl really" is a play on "oh really."

Well, now that I'm obsessed with whales, I have joked that I could re-brand to "whale really" as a play on "well really!" ha!
