{Thrifty Thursday} A Vintage Milk Glass Spring Vignette


Well like I did last week with my Easter Mantel, I'm going to again show you what I have done with my local Goodwill thrifty finds versus just showing you what I bought! Isn't that more fun? I'm certainly having a little more fun with it!

This week I'm sharing with you my vintage milk glass collection I've acquired over the past few weeks (it took me a few trips to get all five pieces), and how I've displayed each piece with flowers in my kitchen. And just a shoutout to my husband who bought me these beautiful flowers! What a fun, Springy collection! And he didn't even know that I had plans for them...






I love how these pieces came together. They're each unique and beautiful in their own right, but put together with some flowers and I'm really loving the brightness they bring to the room. I've even been more incentivized to keep my island clean, isn't that a bonus?

Have you come across any great thrift finds lately?

  7. I just went to the Goodwill last night and bought some bottle vases, mine aren't nearly as cute as yours! But I was planning on spray painting them white. I would have loved to find white ones like you but I wasn't so lucky. They look so cute all in a cluster like that. I would love for you to share this at my link party
