I recent thrift store find inspired a change-up on the small shelf I have hanging in the kitchen.
The space had been looking a little lonely of late.
I wanted something calming and simple.
Take a look at these beauties!!!
I've been on the look out for a pair for years and this is the first set I've come across in reasonable condition in my price range. I'm pretty sure they are silver plated but I just can't bring myself to care - besides it's the look I'm going for - could care less if it's the real deal or a wonderful fake.
I adore these footed, swirled, fluted, sparkling beauties.
Pretty sure I'm in love!
Speaking of love,
the first of my Valentine decor has found the perfect place to hang out.
I adore vintage Valentine card - - wish I had more.
Oh! Did you notice the baby clothes pins?
Adorable right.
I just picked them up the other day and I'm fascinated by them. I'm loving them unfinished but I'm thinking it would be fun to paint a few in pretty colors or add scrapbook paper to them.
What would you do?
Leave them alone or pretty them up?

This is such a pretty display. I love your salt and pepper shakers. Silver plated or sterling silver they are great! Love the chicken wire frame! Adorable!!

They are so pretty, I'm like you I could care less about the real deal as long as it's the look I'm going for! Love salt and pepper shakers, although I only collect holiday ones!
ReplyDeleteWhat a blast! Besides having a great grasp of perspective, what a great…grasp of perspective…such artists have to pour so much heart into something so ephemeral.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
I love this vignette Robin, it is simple and lovely. The chicken wire frame is perfect for your pretty little valentine cards.
ReplyDeleteI like them au naturale, but I have seen some painted pink with glitter that I thought were pretty fancy. Your new salt and peppers are gorgeous. Love the patina on them (or whatever you call the aged silver look).
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty, Robin...great finds! I love the frame idea, too...I need to try it!
ReplyDeleteHi Robin, what a lovely idea, this display! I love vintage cards too, they're so pretty! I hadn't ever found a vintage Valentinecard, hope I will find some.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!

Robin, I love this arrangement! It would look perfect in my home. :) I like the clothespins either way ... plain or decorated.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. Loving all of your pretty whites.
ReplyDeleteWas out shopping this past weekend and visited a few antique shops and I did see some old vintage valentine cards. I have a few that are Christmas cards with letters. Love them. I also love your Ironstone, I did find this weekend a Ironstone bone dish. Have a great week andi thewednesdaybaker
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely vignette! I'm on the lookout for some vintage Valentines too! And I kind of like the natural clothes pins!
ReplyDeleteSuch a charming little display! Love the salt and pepper shakers. The clothespins are adorable. I think the clothespins look great natural but painted would be cute too. Maybe pink, blue, or green with a simple little dot pattern on them. So glad I saw this over at Elizabeth & Co. Sharon
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post! Thanks for the ALL WHITE inspiration! Matches the snow outside:)
