It's a Mod, Mod, Mod Christmas on eBay...

Nah, I don't work for eBay, and yeah, I know I've been Obsessed with eBay entries lately, but...eBay so RAWKS for finding Mod vintage goodies! (Especially helpful when one is too busy to do pound-the-pavement shopping.)

And Christmas-time is no exception. Check out the following holiday-themed items...

Mod reindeer tablecloth

Table-top 'mobile'

Pink flocked Christmas Trees

Melamine Holiday Dishes

Hatched

Just one year old, Liz Vittori Koch's Hatched is tucked away at 5 Green St., here in Jamaica Plain. In quest of a (rather belated) 'welcome baby' gift, I stopped by there earlier today and was pleased to find a selection of organic cotton baby wear, wooden toys, and divers baby accessories. (They also carry cloth diapering supplies)
