About Me:

I'm a full time Blogger and a former shop keeper/Antique Dealer (at Lucketts Store). My style is Vintage, I love mixing old things with new. I've always loved decorating and now that I've closed my shop space, I'm having so much fun working on projects for my own home again!

Favorite area of home improvement:

I love decorating with vintage and antique finds!

  • A big bunch of lilacs are tucked into an enamel pot. No need to arrange in a formal display, just let them spill over the sides.
  • Flowers always look good in white ironstone. The soft lavender color is perfect in a classic white pitcher.
  • Flowers always look good spilling out of a basket. Put a watertight container in the basket before filling with flowers. Just make sure the basket is large enough to hide the water container.
