Hi, everyone! Can you believe that it's April already?! I hope you all had a wonderful Easter.
Remember the Sweet Salvage Sale in Arizona that I went to back in January? (You can read about that incredible event here.) Well, the other day I realized that I never showed you one of my favorite finds from there! It's this fun little metal stand.
My mom, being such a doll, hauled this through 2 airports for me because it wouldn't fit into a suitcase! (I was lovingly carrying my precious bundle of lavender, remember? :)
Anyway, this is the perfect size to display my collection of little silver pieces, and just the kind of whimsical vignette that I love to add to my decor! (There's some creamers, sugar bowls, and a baby cup or two hanging from it!) I actually found a couple of these at the flea market that we went to in Tucson. Luckily, those fit into the suitcase! ;)
I placed it on this 'cart' in the dining room, next to the olive bucket that I got in Chicago this past fall. It fits in perfectly with all of the other silver accessories that were already here.
I've restyled some other areas of the dining room, too, that I'll be showing you soon. Have a fantastic day! :)

I LOVE this!! Perfect for displaying your little silver pieces. You did a wonderful job styling the whole cart. I really like how you mixed in the silver with the white.

Great idea to use it as a display rack for all your C&S bowls. Love your rack with all its goodies. Great vignettes going on.
ReplyDeleteLovely Susan! Love your display. That cool little display rack is worth having to haul it through the airport!
ReplyDeleteThat is just perfect, Susan. Great idea for a display piece- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find! I love how you used it too. The entire shelving unit looks great the way you styled it.
ReplyDeleteQuite a collection of keeps, Susan!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to display them like this.
Love it! Just back from my trip and slowly feeling inspired again. Thanks for inspiring me!
ReplyDeleteAh, the cart! What a great find that was at the CL Fair - until we had to haul it to the car! Looks great with all of your other finds.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I recently bought a rack also, mine hangs on a wall...gotta hang it up and post about it. Rhonda

Your mom rocks! I love that stand for those cups! It is such a cool and original piece!!! And the vignette is just perfect! Here is to a wonderful new month!!!
ReplyDeleteYou've styled the items on your cart so very well, Susan. Everything you selected here is magical, and that charming rack is a perfect topper. Your mom is quite determined! Good to have someone like her in your corner. :)

I enjoyed your pictures and you are lucky to have a wonderful mother to haul that metal rack through the airport for you. I know my mom loves me but I'm not sure my mom would do that for me.
ReplyDeleteLove that stand!!! Now I think that I "need" one too!!
ReplyDeleteI'd haul that beauty through two airports also. I love how you're using it to display all your pretty silver. Love every piece on your cart!
ReplyDeleteI love it all Susan...what a wonderful display!

I like the way you styled the shelves. And the rack looks really neat holding your collection.
ReplyDeleteI finally checked it out a couple of weeks ago. The once a month opening is a neat concept; I bet they get more people in than they would in an entire month, because one has to make a decision pretty quickly or know what they were looking for. (I did find what I was looking for.)
Your display rack is a wonderful find! It looks cute with your silver pieces, but could be changed out for the seasons, too. It would be fun with little vintage Santa mugs at Christmas. Cute!
ReplyDeleteSusan I love it! I recently order a French drying rack from decor steals, but I love yours even more. It's just so unusal. Great collection. Looks so sweet next to your olive bucket. Mom is a real doll!
