A Post In Orange And Some Pictures

This picture by Anne Taintor  is how I feel lately who would think we could possible have so much junk to get rid of or put into storage.  One day in the near feature I will be ready to have my friend who's a real estate agent over to go through our house and tell us what we need to do and what she thinks we can list it for. 

I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's day.




I have an orange theme running through this post hope you like orange.
The above pictures are of a tray, kettle, butter dish and napkin holder.
All the above pictures are item's you could have found in my grandmothers kitchen in the 1970's.


I found this purse and found it interesting since it was from the Olympic games held in Montreal Canada in 1976 I don't think I'll be finding to many like it at my local thrift stores.


I wanted to use this tile somehow I thought it fit with this post and added the lyric's to this old song by the Mindbenders.

I picked the above book up awhile back and found it the other day when I was packing up boxes. I thought I would share some of the picture plates inside these are only a small amount in the book. 


Thanks for dropping by.
Have a great week.

Febuary, Mid Century Modern Finds & Valentine's Day


This winter has been a rough time for me as I had a terrible cold in December and yet again now.  My house clean out is on hold right now though it was going quite well till I got sick again.  The above picture of tulips make me think of Spring which I'm ready for but right know I'm just dreaming of.


My husband and I have both been collecting the above Pyrex bowls to add to my collection.




The above pieces are mid century modern pieces.
The clock and wall sconces I found a while ago in a worldwind stop at my favorite local second hand store.  My husband dropped me off, I had ten minutes and I surprised him coming out with a box full of stuff from a store I usually spend about forty five minutes in.
The lamps I found almost a year ago with no shades. I have been trying to find matching shades for them.  I haven't found them yet but the above shades are what I'm looking for.


Since I'm only posting every 2nd week I'll have to wish you a Happy Valentine's Day now since it will be over before I post again.


I Can't Help Falling In Love
---------------------------------- 
Wise men say  only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay, would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you

Song writers: Hugo Peretti, George David Weiss, Luigi Creatore

Thanks for stopping by.
I hope you have a wonderful week.
