Kitchen Finds






Decided to move things around in the kitchen.
I found these two "new" vintage alabaster lamps
and had the oil painting re-framed.
(The original frame fell and broke to pieces one day.)








Three new little pots of baby tears
came home with me last week so I needed
 to find a spot for them as well.

















Don't forget....
June 1st is this Friday
and this month's

    SOOOO pretty! Your silver pieces are beautiful. Unfortunately, I gave away almost all of my silver years ago. Regret that decision sometimes when I see your beautiful pieces.XO, Pinky

    Thanks for the reminder for Friday. Hopefully the sun will come out and I can bring my plants out from the garage! Your silver looks beautiful and I love the old oil painting. Enjoy the day.

    I love Baby's Tears, and they look charming in your little silver pots.
    And I absolutely ADORE the silver riding boots. What a great find.

    I love all your silver pieces, Alison! I'm headed to Lowe's tomorrow for some plants, so I think I'll be looking for some of those Baby's Tears.

    I love your collections...
    And how shiny your
    silver is! Mine is always
    in need of a good polish : )

    I may get to JB the first day,
    this year. My hubby and I
    leave that Saturday for a bike
    trip in Napa and imagine I will
    be crazy-busy with packing
    on Friday. Hope to see you!

    Alison, and I thought you were just outside in the garden. Isn't it fun to "play" with new things. Love the new lamps and the fabulous silver pieces. I spy your new little pair of silver riding boots looking perfectly at home in the Polohouse. My garden is ready for Friday's party and posted a little teaser tablescape. See you on the 1st. ~ Sarah

    Alison,
    I love the alabaster lamps and the hotel silver coffee pot. What a beautiful painting...the new frame is perfect. How nice to have a kitchen large enough to have room for a side piece and the chairs.

    Simply divine! I see lots of alabaster lamps, but usually not as a matching pair. Love alabaster! I had to give the "last rights" to some baby tears, years ago and vowed never again! They're so pretty while they're still alive! :)
