"Rich the treasure,
Sweet the pleasure."
~John Dryden
Some of our recently culled treasures.
These recent additions to my treasure trove were acquired for a song at an estate sale! After snapping a few pictures to share here, I began a bit of research on how to put these lovelies to work. The images below are just a few of the many great ideas I've uncovered.
~~~~~~~
Small Revere~style bowls become charming planters.
A "one and lonely" silver chalice becomes a lovely vase for a single bloom.
Silver pedestal cradles natural sachets and pretty soap in the powder room.
Silver trays are wonderful for corralling small collections.
Bent flatware transform into whimsical hooks...
...and ladles become storage for smaller items.
Silver bowls and pitchers enhance an ordinary buffet's beverage center/bar.How do you use your vintage silver finds?
Do you prefer a slight tarnish...or a mirror~like shine?
Confession: I'm a tarnish girl...would love to hear your preferences!
We're off now to run a few errands. Wishing a lovely weekend to all of you...my kind and kindred souls!!!
Sending good thoughts, love and happy treasure culling!
Warmly,
Tracey and Family x0x
