This old shelf is the newest addition to our home...
love the old worn white paint.
For now it stands against a narrow wall in our kitchen and holds some little treasures,
like the birdhouse that adorable
Elyse made for me.
A place to hang my grandmother's crocheted apron...
...stack some red plaid things, like the big red thermos that sweet
Sherrigifted me in March.
And tucked on the shelf is this sweet linen heart pillow that my friends, Jenny and Andrea, make. ....i love it.....and sending a loving wish for a great day to all of you!

Love the shelf and those plaid metal picnic baskets are wonderful!
I love your new shelf! Anything that has the chippy paint...you know has been well loved.
Also the plaid lunch box brings back so many memories from my childhood. My aunt used to carry one to school and I just couldn't wait to get one but by the time I was off to school, I had to have a David Cassidy one. hehe
Have a great Wednesday,
Karen
Squeeeeeal....how darling is that, honey! I'm falling for it and those aren't even my favorite colors. Just adorable, sugar.

You've found a place to show off your beautiful vintage treasures. How perfect! The red plaid really shows up and I love the chippy shelf! Enjoy your day! I love living with my favorite things around me to enjoy!
just loving all the plaid!!!
It's all so cozy and wonderful...is there anything better than splashes of red and an old plaid lunchbox? It's always a joy to visit you here and I hope that you have been well.
The red plaids are so sweet. Nothing better than the color red!

What a cute vignette. I love the little cottage door stop. Every time I see your plaid collection I could kick myself for selling some at a yard sale years ago. For pennies!!
What a fabulous shelf ~ love all your treasures ... the plaid metal picnic basket collection is gorgeous!
Hi Becky
All your treasures look just perfect on your new little shelf. The plaid thremos reminds me of a picnic size one my dad won at a golf tournament when I was young.
Thanks for the sweet memory!
Hugs, Rhondi
Hi Becky,
The "old shelf" is wonderful, I love to display all my favorite things too.
Hasn't it been lovely fall weather the last few days. I have been so happy that the days have finely cooled down.
The quilt show you attended looked amazing and so much fun.
Enjoy your day,
Elizabeth
I have an old chippy red painted shelf - years ago my mom visited and was wondering around looking at my decorating and my projects. She got to the shelf and asked (totally serious) "well, when are you going to finish this thing". I laugh everytime I see that shelf.
I truly enjoy the peeks into your home - thank you for sharing them.
Love that red tartan picnic basket!!
What a pretty shelf - anything chippy is wonderful isn't it? I love that chalkboard, too!
the plaid metal baskets bring back memories
Pretty shelf. LOVE the pops of red.
I'm in love with your canister with the red lid and flowers. My kitchen so wants that.
Hello Becky,
Sweet little shelf, all of those plaids are so Scotty. Granny just new her Granddaughter's color red and white would be perfect. sandi
Very very cute. Love all the plaid stuff. And of course the chippy paint. Wonderful! Mimi
That is a great old chippy paint shelf, and I love the plaid lunch boxes! I loved plaid dresses when I was a little girl...everything had to be plaid, but I didn't get a plaid lunch box!
Blessings,
Mary
Aw so sweet! And all the treasures that sit on it are so nice :)
All the best,
Allison
Hi Becky,
Dawn at Cottage State of Mind sent me your way because we are fellow Scottie owners! So far I love your blog, I need to check it out furter though when I have a little more time. We could be two peas in a pod except you are way ahead of me in your blog decor. My site is called Ladybug Dreams. It is not so pretty yet and I think I will have to rethink my decor because yours is quite alike what I had in mind. Don't want to be a copy cat. I love red and of corse Scotties. Ladybug is my little Scottie's name. Come visit sometime, you'll find me at brtowsleyblogs.blogspot.com
Have a good day!
Becky,
Your vignettes just make me happy. I love the lunch/picnic boxes. After reading you 3 years ago I went out and started my own collection! You are the best! Lisa
Wow, what a fab shelf. Love all your treasures on it.
