This year has been all about finishing painting projects, and decorating the house. We’ve been in our current home for eight years, and it needs a little love. One of the rooms that needed a lot of love is the kitchen. We’ve painted, moved appliances, but there is still a lot of work to be done.

I’ve been decorating a bit in there too. I’ve started collecting vintage Pyrex pieces to decorate with, and last weekend I found some fantastic pieces.

Saturday morning we were driving around looking for yard sales. We visited a large pop-up flea market, but no luck. I asked James if he wouldn’t mind heading to an antique shop that I’ve wanted to visit. He said it sounded like fun, and off we went.

O.k. this shop was amazing… I found two pieces as soon as we walked in the door, and I was thrilled.

There was booth after booth, and room after room filled with finds. I found four more pieces in a pattern that I have been looking for. The price was just right too.

We are planning another trip out there soon. I think there are a few more pieces of Pyrex that needs to find it’s way to my house.

The kitchen is looking bright and cheerful, now I just need to paint those cabinets.
