Asian Paper Bird Fans

Even I grow tired of moaning about the heat! I imagine one day we will finally install central heat & air and my body will have complete season confusion. Anyway, a few years back I found two boxes of vintage Asian paper fans. I started to photograph them to sell and as I went to list them, I just couldn't get my wording right or decide to sell them by the box or individually or even really if I wanted to sell them. Here in Florida, having a ready supply of cute fans isn't a bad thing! Anyway, until I make up my mind, here are some photos of said fans.


 

A Good Day

July 26, 2012~



   My fans came in early! They weren't expected until August 3rd! A generous electrician friend came over and put up the big one and is coming back tomorrow to tackle the one in Julian's room. Jason stayed home and assisted with the fan and put Juju to bed so I could get out. It was very nice to catch up with a couple friends over coffee. I needed it bad- the company just as bad as the mocha coconut frap!

Fans

from June 26, 2012~  Just after my wedding, I found 2 boxes of Asian hand fans at a thrift store. I added them to my collection and promptly forgot about them. Nowadays, I'm more in a clear out than collect mode so when I came across these again, I immediately thought they'd be great to sell. Then I started opening them to see if the were moldy or torn. They are not... and they are gorgeous, yes, every single one has a unique, detailed watercolor print on it. I'm having serious second thoughts about letting them go. I do help with events now and then so I may just hold on to these a bit longer. They don't take up too much room. =)
