Bunches o' Bowls for White Wednesday

A big THANK YOU goes to Kathleen of ~ FADEDCHARM ~ for hosting White Wednesday! If you love all shades of white, cream, ivory, taupe, etc you must go and view all the creative bloggers!


While browsing thru one of my favorite antique haunts awhile back I came across stacks of these vintage white USA restaurant berry or veggie side bowls priced at 2 for 1.00. Hmmmm . . . I thought ~ such a deal but what could I use them for?? But as any good collector knows to never to pass up something that speaks to you! So quite a few of them came home with me!


I love the aged white with light crazing and the sweet scalloped edging. They have come in very handy for lots of things from sorting buttons to using as plant saucers. And I like the way they look just simply stacked . . .




And oh my! A birdie is nesting in one ~ a white birdie of course ;-)


I hope you enjoyed your visit today and just a reminder to check out my latest giveaway ~ it ends on the 12th so please Click HERE for the details!



Big Hugs and Smiles to one and all,
Lynn

  7. First off, I just love your New Banner showcasing all your sweet creations. Second thanks for letting PEEPS know about White Wednesday. That is really neat since I am gravitating toward white, and light creme.

    Your bowls, buttons & bows--that is a sweet concept. You are such a visionary when it comes to design.

    Hoping all is well at the Prairie Home and the snowbanks are starting to melt.
