Vintage Market Finds

 I went to the best vintage market this weekend!  http://www.vintagemarketdays.com
 I ended up going Saturday and drug my husband and kiddos back on Sunday for round two.
Chair: $20
Plates: $3 each
Vintage linens: $40
Wood Duck: $10
Clock: $12

 As soon as we built the house I added dinner bell to the list of items I wanted to find. I just imagined myself ringing it to call the kids in from playing outside. Found this gem for $20 at the vintage market.

 Great little farmhouse pillow

 I am really tall so all of the cabinets in our house are very high. I didn't think about the issues it would cause while the kids were little. Oops! So know B has this great little ladder to use to wash his hands and he thinks its super fun!

 Cute little stool for $20. Makes the perfect seat at our new island.

Kitchen updates



In our blueprints we allowed for area in the kitchen to have an industrial free-standing island. For some reason we never got around to having it built during the building process. We got used to the wide open space in the kitchen so I was really hesitant to add anything. Last week I finally decided to order a stainless steel island from a restaurant supply company and I love it! Its great to have another prep area that is so close to the fridge.

Before the island even came in I purchased another amazing cutting board from Hungary. Not sure what my deal is with cutting boards but I am fascinated with them.

Found this great stool at a vintage flea market and found the rug on http://www.ecarpetgallery.com. This is my new favorite rug place. Great prices and I love that it looks like it has been around forever.

Lowe loves have a cozy rug to sit on in the middle of the kitchen.

and Brox loves having a new place to eat his cereal. And I love having both of my babies in the kitchen with me!

Entry Decor

 I have been collecting trays for a few months and finally had enough to do a grouping in the entry way. Filling up those empty walls!


First Snow

Our first snow! Wasn't much but still so pretty!
