Disney Shopping.com features some unbelievably gorgeous Mickey Mouse Dinnerware. They add an unexpected degree of fun to any meal they’re invited to. The [...]

One of the things I collect are miniature houses. I’ve lost count of the Liberty Falls houses and village pieces I’ve accumulated over the years. For some reason, they make everything in my world warm and wonderful every time I look at them - so they can be found in just about every [...]

The breathtakingly beautiful work of art, above, is called “Red Tray”. It’s an art glass tray (safe for food, but I’m not sure I’d ever let food touch it!).
From the Web Site:
Artfully abstract tray created by fusing pieces of cut glass in a kiln and shaping the form over a ceramic mold [...]

You don’t have to be a collector to love these little plump Artichoke Salt and Pepper Shakers. My mom actually collected salt and pepper shakers, but I’ve only recently fallen madly in love with them.
These are, without a doubt, some of the cutest salt and pepper shakers I’ve ever seen. And that’s [...]

Another trip to www.UncommonGoods.com, another couple of somethin’ somethin’s I can’t possibly live without. I’ve been living without it all this time without them, you say? (Did my husband tell you to say that???)
Well, now that I’ve seen these, I can’t possibly live another moment without them.
First up, we have the [...]

The gorgeous Elvis & The Beatles Collectible Salt and Pepper Shakers, above, would have any S&P collector shaking, twisting, and shouting. My mom always collected salt and pepper shakers and would have gone wild for these. The happiness wouldn’t have lasted long, thoug. Her sister/my aunt (who’s pretty obsessed with anything and everything [...]

As exciting and glorious as Thanksgiving and Christmas are, they’re also a little hectic. Buying this, buying that, getting this ready, getting that ready. I absolutely love it, but there’s a lot to be said for January 5th when all you have to do is sit back and look normal square in the [...]

Have you seen the Globo Teapot yet? Well, before this post had you seen it?!
Is it a cool looking teapot or what? Drinking tea will never be boring again because, frankly, this isn’t your grandmother’s teapot….it isn’t even your mother’s teapot.
From the website:
Add a bit of cool style to your [...]

It’s here - what I always call “My time of the year” - the home stretch on the calendar. Sure, I love every season and every month - each has its own special magic and countless reasons to cherish each moment. But, September, October, November, and December turn those magical, cherished moments into [...]
