Hello my friends and yes, it's a fabulous Friday!
Gorgeous weather, plenty of sunshine, and it's my birthday! :)
So you can see, for me; it's fabulous in more ways than one!
What better way to celebrate my birthday than by sharing some of my fab finds and what I have done with them.
You may remember the $20 box of Ironstone I snagged at a thrift back in Feb. I have loved it and there were two of these sweet sugar bowls.
I filled one with red roses from the garden and teamed it up with a trio of mirrors and this vintage tray for a romantic summer mantle.
The mirror started out like this. I found it at a yard sale on Sat. I wasn't yard sailing, but was at a garden tour and there was a sale across the street from one of the homes. Of course we had to check it out!
My new Instagram friend, Joanne found the simplistic mirror in the background for me at Fleology for $10. Ever since I fell head over heels in love with hers I have been wanting to find a few.
I've had the large mirror ever since we added the bead board a few years ago. I love the look of the three of them nestled together!
I found the little birdhouse wall vase at Fleology on Sat. for $10.
You know how I love birds!
The book and teacup were thrift finds a while ago. I added my crown made by Gigi, from Old World Patina to the book. If you ask me, roses are crown beauties!
There were 3 of the cups, but I resisted and only bought one. Now and then I can do that. lol!
Love it against the chippy half door shelf!
This pretty bottle once held bubble bath from Pier 1.
I found 5 pieces of red glass last week for $1 each. I am running out of room in my red glass cabinet, but for $1 I could not pass them up. This Avon glass was one of them.
Isn't that a gorgeous rose? I placed a few of my books about roses on the French stool below the chippy door.
It only took minutes to make these few changes, but what a delight they have been to me!
hugs,
Jann
