A basket of flowers (flowers from Home and Garden Party); goose bought at Fort Ligonier Days several years ago with one of my dear Gram's pie pans behind it; bean pots and pitcher that also belonged to my dear Gram; a crock that also belonged to my dear Gram.
I got these two needle point pictures at a yard sale in the spring. The frames were different colors so I decided to give them a black crackle finish.
I bought these three little sheep that say "Live Well, Love Much, Laugh Often" and the little tree last fall at Christmas In The Woods in Ohio; my star lamp; miniature oil lamp.
This large coffee pot was found in the attic of the home where I grew up. I have no idea who it belonged to. It has a hole near the bottom so I'm sure that is why it was put up in the attic. I'm so glad it wasn't thrown away; the off-white enamelware cup sat on the sink in my parent's kitchen.
I picked up this cut glass pitcher for $2.00 at a thrift store. I decided to use it for my cooking utensils. This small yellow enamelware creamer belonged to my dear Gram.
I hope you've enjoyed this up close and personal look at some of things that are near and dear to my heart. Thanks once again for taking the time to stop by...I appreciate it so much.
Much love to you all, Kim

Heidi wanted to know if had the complete collection of Gooseberry Patch cookbooks. No Heidi, I do not, even though it may look like I do. I'm sure trying though!
You are so fortunate to have all these items from your grandmother! They are real treasures. I only have a couple of pieces from my grandmother and I treasure them.
ReplyDeleteI love your scales. I have an old Dutch scale and I love it too. They look so nice sitting in a kitchen. You get the best finds at yard sales. There are no yard sales in Holland.
Beautiful details and beautiful accents. Thank you for sharing your charming home and giving me a "peek".
ReplyDeleteBlessings for a Wonderful Sunday!

I have an old white enamel coffee pot that I use as a planter. I love it. My husband does not have the eye for "junk" as he calls it but I always fix it up cute and love it.

You have such pretty "things" you are very lucky also to have so much from your gram. I have a few things and I do so treasure them very much.
ReplyDeleteA scale is on my wish list. I love that you have so many items from family. Items with a story are so much fun!
ReplyDeleteYour kitchen adornments are lovely additions. What I like about them is that each one has a story to go with it. Your Gram had great pieces! I see where you get your decorating gene from. The yellow enamelware creamer is adorable! Love the goose, too! Have a wonderful week! Thank you for always having a kind word to leave to me on my blog. You are so sweet! xo, Becky
