Vintage-Inspired - Early-Spring on the Shelving Unit

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! 

I've been adding Spring touches to the top of my shelving unit in my entry-room.

My ideas for Early Spring are bringing out the green pip-berries, small lavendar flowers, pussy willows and bird prints

***

I decided to keep the rusty lantern and added a cute little handmade nest, 

I kept a couple of my small crocks with added florals. 

Last month I thrifted the Perennials magazine with the purple crocus on the cover, I thought the color was great for this vignette.

As you can see I incorporated a thrifted green Fire-King Mug, Terra Cotta pots with a handmade flower bulb I crafted a few years back. Terra Cotta pots are a must for Spring.

***

This gorgeous Bird print is from The Graphic Fairy  I think it looks wonderful in this Vintage Wooden Frame, I thrifted last Summer yard selling for a dollar.

***

This Americam Bird Guide- copyright 1949, was a fun auction find last Spring.

***

I brought my Wooden Seed Box from down in the den and placed it on top of the shelving unit. Filled it with small terra cotta pots a handmade bird nest with a few Robin blue eggs.

I also used a rusty crusty oil can, from the Familyroom and I just added Spring florals.

***

The bird prints look wonderful with the rusty-crusty and the pottery pieces.

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! 

Today, I'm so excited to share a few vintage treasures I found out thrifting this week at FIFTY PERCENT OFF DAY!

These cute little Satin Floral Covered Take-Out Box/Purse caught my eye.

They were $2.00 each, so I paid $1.00 each, the Green Satin Floral Covered Take-Out Box/Purse, looks wonderful for Spring!

I think the brown box will look great in my Fall Decor next season.

Looking throught the dishes, I found this adorable Platter with Red and Yellow Flowers for $2.00, it's stamped Japan. I paid $1.00

I thought this platter will look great in a Summer table centerpieces.

Checking out the Silver-plate shelf, I saw the silver-water pitcher and creamer priced at $5.00,

I couldn't believe the price!

(Lately, this thriftstore has had very high prices on vintage items.)

I had picked up the little sugar bowl in the last part of January  on 1/2 price Tuesday for $1.50. It looks like to me that all three were part of a set.

Lastly, I found this wonderful Yellow Handmade Birdhouse.

the side, isn't nice? 

Can't wait to set it up in my yard, the Robins have arrived!

Spring is coming!

I'll be using these enamel cups for entertaining on the deck, this summer

I been wanting to get a collection of Blue Currier Ives flatware for some time at a reasonable price.
