Fun at the Antique Store

I love the look of open cabinets...whether they are shelves, glass doors or no doors at all!
So, I have decided to keep two cabinet doors off to display some colorful, fun antique treasures.

Here's what I found at our local antique store!


This is one of my favorite pieces. They all have a story to tell, but this tea kettle is just so unique. I love to think about the life it had before adorning the shelf of a small town antique store.

I'm also in love with this turquoise vase. The owner of the store told me that it's from the 50s. 
How cool!




So, here's what I did with everything!



It's airy and brings out pops of color. This is a good addition to the kitchen. 
I plan to add/substitute more pieces as I find them, so this is not the finished product!


Hope everyone is having a good weekend!!

  2. Thanks Jaime! I appreciate it. Yea, I forgot to mention that everything I got at the antique store only cost me $27! Quite a steal. And I CANNOT WAIT for you to come visit either!! I'm so looking forward to that :)
