Mike Valvo and Stephanie Pernice, designers at Design Dolce, styled a photoshoot today with unique items available at the Sowa Antiques market at vintagesteph's booth.

Lots of locker baskets while supplies last. Endless gift possibilities...including re-purposing the basket for organizing the stuff of life.
