I am in an experimental mood my friends. Today I am trying out a new little series called 10 Things I love about… and my first chapter is going to be on Vintage! So many of my readers are crazy for Flea Market Finds so this seemed like a great place to start. If you enjoy this episode there will be many more to come and I would love to know what you would enjoy seeing in the blank…10 Things I love about…? So sit back and enjoy…the holiday posts are about to begin…but I will make sure there are your little favorites in between ok : )

My heart is beating so fast and my finger is itching to pin, but I had to stop and tell you how much I loved this post. I love the way vintage things placed about our home causes visitors to have special memories come back to them. You know me – I suggest Ten Things I Love About Rust! :>)))
While I don’t have tons of vintage in my house, two reasons I love it are: 1) definitely a way to keep a bit of your grandma’s around you (not knocking other relatives, but gran’s hold a very special place in my heart, everyone’s gran actually) … all you have to do is say “it was my gran’s and everyone always ooo’s and ah’s, 2) its a way to have fun with items previously treated very seriously, like those trophies in this post that now hold paint brushes and wooden spoons … I’m sure when new they were highly revered “don’t touch” items and today they can bring whimsy and fun to a space.
Have to say I first read this post last night but was certain I read it incorrectly as I was recovering from a migraine and my head gets confused … so I thought I’d reread it this morning and save my comment until now. Um, it still says I’m the winner of the Home Depot card! Thank you magic number picker, Home Depot, and Andrea 🙂 That money will definitely be applied to our super long overdue kitchen facelift that we’ve been debating forever but are very close to getting on with it 🙂 Backsplash tile definitely comes to mind.
Many many thanks. Robin, Happily Home After
: ) LOL!!!! I am just getting to my comments now! Backsplash Tile sounds like a GREAT way to give the kitchen a facelift! wohooooo!!!!!! I LOVE your comments!!! : ) By the way…you really “get” this post!!! Hugs to my friend Beaver and truly hope he is having a fabulous and wonderful day!
Makes me want to run out to the thrift store! I would love a collection of old fans … and wouldn’t those vintage buttons look fabulous in mason jars! 😉

Fun to see my collection of trophies again. I created this because I do not have a lot of drawer space . The shelf is right over the most used corner of my kitchen. so much easier to just reach up and grab what I need .
Thank you so much for dropping by and thank you for your sweet comment! Your creation is WONDERFUL and everyone LOVES it!!! Thanks for the touch of whimsy! hugs…
Love this post and the series is a great idea. Can’t wait to see more. Of course, is want to see reasons to love vintage kitchen glass, maybe?
LOVE the idea of “10 Things I LOVE About…” post & starting with vintage was perfect! (I mean who doesn’t LOVE vintage????) I suggest 10 things I LOVE about home/handmade art &/or recycling/upcycling.
