lovely dishware : vintage mushroom canisters

be still my heart

i am loving these canisters.

can i convince Handsome Man

that they would do just perfectly

perched atop our kitchen counter?

found at Forest Daydream

lovely dishware :

i have a thing for pitchers

and when i say "thing"

it means i so a little wiggle and squeal

that makes Handsome Man raise his eyebrows

and slowly make his escape to a more sane part of the house.

that boy...

leaves, leaves, leaves

if it has leaves on it

especially modern-style leaves

then i love it and want it and need it

unless its expensive

and then i still love it and want it

but don't need it.

sniffle.

i also go weak in the knees 

from a good floral pitcher.

could there be anything more classic granny-chic?

i say NO.

but the past cannot take all the credit for producing

delightfully lovely pitchers.

there are some delicious dishware floating around these days

especially at ModCloth.

( personally, any company with a mushroom next to their name

has me as a fanatic-life-long-loyal customer)

now keep in mind that these are teapots

not pitchers

but they still pour liquid

so hop on into my cupboards please.

 

i am obsessed with folk art

but that last teapot is especially dear to my heart

the color combo, the flowers.

anyone wanna lend me $34.99??? heeee

EDITED TO ADD
there are matching cupsssssssssssssssssssssssssss
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i will be needing additional funds
so i may purchase at least ... 43 ... of these darling cups.

lovely dishware: delicious salt and pepper shakers

my kitchen would be oh-so-happy

if i had these sweet salt and pepper shakers.

i love the color

and i love the hobnail texture.

if jadite and milk glass had a love affair

these would be their babies.

Little Lady and I ran errands today

and we picked a few more foam trees to decorate.

i couldn't help myself!!!

Kitchen needs some christmas cheer :)

off to try to temper the disaster known as Little Man
