Collections

I collect lots of stuff. Mid-century birds, vintage tins, and crocheted rocks to name a few. Sometimes the clutter drives me crazy. But I can't imagine empty walls and shelves. Each item is special for a different reason and anytime I need a little inspiration, I just have to turn my head and there is something to discover. I also collect things to display my collections - a peeling spice rack, old wood drawers turned sideways and hung on the wall, and vintage cutlery boxes are some of my favorites.
