Table Display

Favorite things should be shared. I started collecting china on layovers in London years ago. The cup and saucer made the trip back. The plate and leather prayer book came from a tag sale in Chapel Hill. The hand painted dish $2.00 from GW.Beautiful cherry antique table w/spindel legs also that same tag sale.
Take it from me; "Buying a house, SIMPLE. Making it a HOME, takes time and that's the fun part!"

Deck Statement

A true gem for $65.00 on Craigslist. I'll enjoy playing with it to display my "white" collection for now.Next spring I'll see what will grow in there.

Buffet Display

I realized most of the glass and trey were collected second hand. Then I focused on the lamps.That's a story! I found them at a garage sale.They were old brass candlesticks. I had them made into lamps.

Cut glass for fun!

Cut glass is hitting the shelf at Goodwill and antique malls. Find an old tray as well and create a bathroom display. The glass makes a great container for bath salts.

Guest Room

I saw these headboards on Craigslist and had to have them! The room is coming together. The milk glass lamp and shade came from 2 different thrift shops.The "ribbon plates" were Mom's. How special is that...memories from Mom. The comforters and pillow shams from Tuesday morning.
