Springtime Breakfast Table

Yesterday I went to Michael's on my lunch hour.  Their Ashland line was 50% off so I purchased this little wooden box, the stems, and the bunny rabbit and little oval box. 

Isn't he a little cutie?

They only had three of these stems left so I bought all of them.  Notice the little bird nest and egg.  They are so sweet.

Don't you love the Robin's egg here?

Such a precious little box.

The wooden box has the word Spring on front and back.  This photo shows the back.  Whoops, need to remove the UPC label on the little oval box. 
 The dishes are very old.  Some belonged to my mother and some to my MIL.  The little cup is one of four that I have.  I don't have the saucer, they have very delicate pink and blue flowers on them and a silver band at the top.  The roosters are S/P shakers from Target.  The napkins are Shabby Chic from Target as well.  The rooster napkin rings are a good will find. The place mats are a thrift store purchase.
I know you recognize this little fellow.   I'm thinking of adding some pink or blue to these little birds.




Hope you enjoyed the breakfast table with its Spring decor. 

I am linking to the party at Susan's.  Be sure to drop in.

  8. Thank you for visiting my blog! I love the box and stems. Normally, I prefer a monotone palate on the bird, but I think you're right about adding some color to that one!

Linens & Things

I love finding tablecloths, runners, napkins, and other linens when I am out thrifting. Whether it be at consignment shops, GW, or yard sales, I will usually snap up a pretty linen if it doesn't have a lot of stains.  I will show you some of my favorites. I found several pieces embroideried with this design at a favorite consignment shop. This blue runner (reversible to stripes), found on consignment. This is one of the nicer quality tablecloths I have found, $4.00 at a thrift store. This cloth was around $10.00 on consignment. This runner is also reversible to polka dots, and was a consignment find. This pink and white gingham is perfect in the sun room, and is a consignment find also. This is the most valuable table cloth I have found, and it was $2.00 at a nearby yard sale.  It is a vintage Wielunder.  They sell on ebay for 30 - 90 dollars.  Mine is in pristine condition! Christmas tablecloth, consignment sale.   Consignmen

Trash to Treasure

We had noticed this "jar" sitting near a trash pile, and my husband decided to see what it was.  It was full of dirt, and covered in grime.  After soaking it a while, it looked much better. The shape and color is very nice. At first I thought it might be a globe for a lamp or some type of candle holder. The bottom has an opening, and no markings. Do you know what it might be? This is how I'm using it. It's made of thick bubbled glass. Any guesses?? Know what this was in its former life?   It makes a wonderful vase for faux flowers! It's a vintage fly /wasp trap!!   Once yucky, now pretty!!!

What's in the Hutch?

Yesterday I awoke in the mood to do some "deep" cleaning.  First on my list was to dust inside the china cabinet in the dining room.  Can you believe how much dust can get into a closed cabinet.  Really, how does that happen?  My cabinet has glass shelves and they were hazy with dust.  This is a rather tedious job because I not only have china inside, I have all kinds of little "pretties" stored there too.  It's one of the first things you see upon entry into our home, so I really should do this more often.  I want show you the before, sufficeth to say, it had been a while since I had tackled this chore.  Here are some photos showing the "after". Here is a collection of vases and crystal pitchers .   These were all gifts except the smallest one in the front and the one to the right of it. China and a consignment shop cake plate.  The china was formerly my MILs. More china . This little fairy lives here with her 2 sisters. They can all be seen
