a collection. part 2

the smallest and newest of my collections- bird pitchers. they were mostly made during and just after WW2 in japan and many were brought state-side after the war. I love their whimsy.

I use the yellow one for sunday breakfast. its perfect for milk for coffees. I sorta hate having a milk carton on the table -

I see these often, but they are usually between 40-100$. thats why i only have two - i only buy them when i love them and they are a good price.

hope you love em too!

Illumination interlude

i am loving the way this collection of glass is tucked away but illuminated in a big way! so clever and simple and terrific at drawing attention to your favorite collection with out putting it in a stuffy old cabinet - and i love how its like an interlude for your hallway. a placement thats a bit unexpected!!!
