Vintage Vanities & Old Hollywood Glamour
Here are some more glamorous movie stars from the Silent Film Era and Golden Age of Hollywood and their fabulous vanities, dressing tables, and mirrors getting ready for their close up! I found more photos than I ever expected to discover!
I hope the pictures inspire you to create your own glamorous vanity vignettes. Claudia at The Paris Apartment has asked bloggers to send photos of their modern vanity for the Vanity for Humanity book that she is creating for the Habitat for Humanity charity. She is still collecting photos, so send yours to her at theparisapartment@yahoo.com and post them on your blog too.
Thank you to all the bloggers that created such amazing vanity settings! Click here to see the Vanity for Humanity posts on Claudia's blog so far. (Several posts are all grouped together in the link.) It's for a wonderful cause that will help so many others in need and brighten their day.
