The Estate of things

New in our Etsy shop, the Estate Sale, is this lovely little Italian ceramic bowl.

Great for display, as a vase or holding a houseplant or an orchid– this little pot is pretty versatile.

I spotted a similar pot at the home of India Hicks featured in Veranda,

Our Etsy shop, the Estate Sale has several fresh new items added and among them is this elegant Gorham silver plated bowl,

There are so many uses for this bowl around the house–put it at your entry to corral your mail or keys, put fruit in it, put it on the bookshelf or on the sideboard.

I just spotted one sitting on a coffee table in a Nantucket beach cottage in Coastal Living,

Fresh cuts at our Etsy shop, the Estate Sale this week–including those that might aid in a complete bar setup at home. Allow me to demonstrate,

This Mad Men-esque martini pitcher with glass stir would be a great addition

to a cocktail vignette like this,

or maybe you need a classic modern decanter,

to complete this scene,

Maybe you’re more of a wine drinker in which case you would require this unique decanter,

to pour from the next time you sit down with friends at this table,

I added this sweet little painting to the Etsy shop, the Estate Sale,

 

It reminded me of the “Coming Up Roses” feature in Lonny’s March/April Issue,

and PS, that Violet Chintz fabric has been stuck in my head and I couldn’t figure out where I had seen it, does that happen to you? You see something, forget to bookmark it and then it bugs you until you find it again (if you’re lucky)

Fresh inventory at the Etsy shop, the Estate Sale,

Maybe you’re more of a ceramic person,
 

Spotted the partridge bedside in the new Dwell Studio catalog,

 

I recently added this antique felt New York pennant to our Etsy shop, the Estate Sale,

Wouldn’t it look great mixed in with a photo gallery wall like this,

remember this was a dorm room on design steroids, don’t know source.

Or you could drape it in a display cabinet among other mementos, just a thought.

I’ve had New York on the brain lately because I’ve been listening to Alicia Keys’ Empire State of Mind…I know the song was released in like 2009.

Green up your space inside and out with this pretty vintage planter just added to our Etsy shop the Estate Sale,

Over the weekend I added this sweet bowl to our Etsy shop, the Estate Sale

a classic silver look with a pop of color on the inside, everyone needs a little color right?

You might like to fill it with some matches and add it to a corral of accessories on a lacquer tray on your coffee table or set it on top of a stack of books.

Bryn just bought one for her house with a peacock blue center,

My friend Erica was kind enough to make us a little graphic for the Estate Sale shop, you can see it on the right side of your screen and below. Thank you Erica!

I added a couple of new things to the shop last week. Take a look at this lovely ceramic number.

This lamp could be the start of a vignette like this,

Turquoise

or perhaps you need a lamp in your entry,

It almost looks like it could be part of one of Christopher Spitzmiller’s collections but for a fraction of the price.

There is a beautiful pair of ceramic peacocks at the Estate Sale.

They’d be perfect in a place like this,

or this,

because they have a bookending effect they remind me of Sherry’s snakes,

Visit the Etsy shop, the Estate Sale to learn more about the peacocks.
