Gma's Treasures
Wednesday, April 14, 2010
While I was at my grandma's house in Atlanta, she let me scour her house for treasures...and we did a like junk shopping too. Here are some of my finds!
First, I got these cute artichokes to mix in with my wooden ball collection underneath our glass coffee table. You can see through the top...very fun and springy.
They fit inside this neat tray I got at Pier1 for next to nothing...literally I think it may have cost me $6.
I found this milk glass bowl that has the neatest raised dotting on it. I love these fun balls because they are 1) the colors in our home and 2) have the same dotting texture.
There is still an empty apothecary jar behind it...any good ideas of what to fill those with? I'm at a loss!
She gave me these pretty candlesticks that look like eyelet to me. I love them and grabbed some cheap Michaels candles for color. I think they look great on top of the bookcase. She gave me a pretty cake plate to match as well.
Finally, she had all kinds of wreaths laying around and I took some from here and there and we put together this beauty! I think it is very fun. I have never been much on purple, but lately it is all I wear! So, I think it is fitting for my house to "wear" it too.
The wreath holder has little birdies on it...so sweet.
She gave me so many other fun things that I just haven't found the right spot for yet, so when I do...I'll let you know!
Hope you all are having a great week :)
