Toy Soldiers

Alli and I both love toy soldiers, and when I was looking through the April issue of Country Living magazine there was a house showcased in which the owner used little vintage toy soldiers in her decorating.  I've gathered some items from etsy that could be fun to incorporate into your decorating.

How cute is this vintage wooden Easter egg from The Garden Barn?!
You open it up and it has a toy soldier skittle game inside!

Cath Kidson "Guards Kids Suitcase" $40

I think these would be fun to incorporate into your decor.

Napoleon style soldier costumes vintage stamps frm arty pharty.
I saw a picture in a magazine where the home owner had bought a bunch
of vintage stamps at an antique show and then  made a kind of collage out of
similarly hued stamps.  This etsy shop has a slew of vintage stamps that could be used for the same sort of project.
available at 86 Home

Awwww, look at their sweet little mustachio'd faces.
