I'm sure I'm not alone in having every tiny detail of my ideal kitchen planned and picked out for when we have the home of our dreams. I would definitely love acres of open shelving stacked with both vintage and modern kitchenalia, including lots of cute little pottery pieces such as these recent finds...

Ironstone cups and saucers with a gorgeous retro pattern - $3 total.

Butterdish - $1.

I love the calming green of this bowl but it's the inside I love even more...

The swirls of colour and crackled glass glaze, lovely - $2.

You can never have too many ramekins, right? 50 cents each.

And one thing there will definitely be no shortage of in my dream kitchen is vintage pyrex! WARNING: I feel another pyrex post coming on soon. If you love pyrex as much as I do head over to Vonlipi's Favorites - she is giving away a fab piece of retro pyrex and you will love her blog, I am in envy of her finds, how can anybody possibly find every single type of pyrex butterdish that has been made? Would it be greedy of me to enter after winning Grunge Queen's fab giveaway? Yes! I won "Domino the Book of Decorating" - I am so excited! I have had this book on my wish list for ages, thanks again Grunge Queen!

Enough about my giveaway - the ever-fabulous Kelly AKA Grunge Queen also celebrates her one year blogoversary this week and is having a fantastic giveaway - first name drawn will receive a copy of "Domino The Book of Decorating" - definitely a book anybody with an interest in decor would LOVE to own and the second name drawn will receive a beautiful necklace. So head over to Grunge Queen and check out her blog, it is one of my absolute favourites. This girl has style - using her fab vintage finds to decorate her boho-fab apartment and ever glam self :-)

One Year Old = Giveaway!

My Blog is one year old this week!! I can't believe I've made it so far - honestly I'm the type to constantly start projects and never see them through so I'm really glad that I have kept to this. I've really enjoyed writing it and reading all the lovely comments I've received over the last year. Thank you so much to everyone who has read, followed or commented, it's been great reading your blogs too and "meeting" so many great people :-)

Now for my little giveaway. It took me ages to decide what to give and then I thought - well my blog is all about thrifting and using it as decor and anybody who reads this blog must have a similar interest so a book on the subject would be an ideal prize - ta daaa!!

"Flea Market Style" is a really lovely book with tips on how to use your vintage / market finds to create your own unique fab interior. It's hard-back, 140 pages and features really beautifully photographed interiors and vignettes to inspire. The lucky winner will receive a copy of this book.


How to Enter:
This is my first ever giveaway so I looked around at others and will follow what seems to be pretty much the standard entry format.
1. Leave a comment and your name will go into the draw once.
2. If you are a follower or become one and leave a comment your name will go in twice.
3. If you have a blog and mention my giveaway (and let me know) your name will go in 3 times.

Easy peesy! I will draw the winner in 7 days, good luck!
