this revamped valance and crown shelf for what-nots will make chas bashful about his. he will now have to start all over with his entire kitchen.

always looking for something to do, ♪♫♪♫ baby, it's cold outside ♪♫♪♫

Good! Much better. If we didn't need the ceiling fans here so desparately, I'd trade ours in for fixtures too.

Lotus Dale said...

gosh. it's seen the rounds, hasn't it? my kids say us sibs never throw anything away. they might be right. lol.

Lotus Dale said...

looks good.

Charles Cirilo said...

What a deal.... The competition is mounting, I see.

Charles Cirilo said...

Nice shakers. Are they embossed with Old Spice ships?

Charles Cirilo said...

Where's the price tag?

Charles Cirilo said...

Agreed. Looks good.

I throw away the trash. Everyday it's, "Honey, take out the trash for me, please", or "Honey you're so sweet, I know you'll get the trash for me", or "The trash runs in the morning. WE don't need to forget to put it on the curb". You get the picture. Not guilty.

i think i lived in north carolina when i got these. gave them to kay after i had enjoyed them for a long while. one thing abt giving kay something, she NEVER gets rid of it! lol.

yes, they have ships on them and they are very nice. blue on white porcelain with wood.

the shakers are outlasting your memory, they have a winter scene with a wood frame house, some bare trees and a couple walking up holding hands.
my old spice bottles are reserved for display on special occasions when we have important company over, and they smell good too!

under the chickens.

Lotus Dale said...

i was just looking at all the blue/white stuff at lee's today and a bunch of hers has the ships.

Byron @ said...

Lotus Dale said...

i like that pendant! too bad not available.

great onlie price, but then it can be great since they don't have any to sell at that price.

isn't that how it works? lol.

Byron @ said...

i was thinking chrome to match the fixtures, but maybe white will do. matches the ceiling fan and the porcelain faucet handles.
