Who the heck is Vintage Coconut?



Hello everyone if you are wondering who Vintage Coconut is, it's me previously Lime Vintage. I have changed my Blog name along with its look also.

My main reason is: When I joined here I had not a clue what to name my blog or if I would even be around here for any amount of time. So I quickly came up with lime vintage because of my love for lime green and well LIMES. lol


But in a few weeks I will have been here for a year and I like to blog but many times have stopped for quite long lengths of time. I vowed to do better this year and I plan to keep my word. So I decided to help me get motivated I wanted to freshen things up a little and give it a little more thought.




Why Vintage Coconut?? Well I like coconuts.... (oh man we can all see where this is going.. first limes now coconuts) But no NO no I promise its not like that. I acquired a Coconut monkey which I like quite a bit. I plan to add more to this one man collection but have not come across them yet. I also love hula girls and Hawaiian stuff. When I think of coconuts it also makes me think of all those other lovely things. Sitting at my desk I just got last week that I bought from the salvation army for $15.00 (Which will get repainted in the spring) I thought now what am I going to put on my desk and decorate it with?? The first thing I went and got was the coconut monkey. Followed by a pineapple shaped candle and a little Hawaiian hula girl. Those are the things I look at when I sit down at my desk. I could have picked anything.. but I chose them. Which is a fitting reason to choose vintage coconut. And now I feel a bit better about this little blog. Because I did not choose the name rushed while signing up. I have chosen something that has some sort of meaning to me. Because I plan to stay here and plan to continue blogging. The people I have met on here are all delightful and alot have the same interests than me which is sometimes hard to find other places. Heck alot of people I know think vintage is silly or OUTDATED!!


So that is why I like to talk to all of you. *Smile*

I will post a regular post again soon. We are getting close to the weekend so everyone have a GREAT one!
