I’m into fruit these days! I love the look of real fruit on a platter or a bowl as a
decorative accent, but I’m also liking the kind that doesn’t mold. I had a conversation
with my brother a few weeks ago about vintage fruit. Remember the wooden monkey pod fruit
I’m into and have sitting on my coffee table? Well, after our convo, he was at a flea market
and got inspired to snag some cool looking vintage modern grapes for me…
I love these…I’ve never seen anything like them…. they are attached to root wood which
adds to their coolness! 🙂
Little did he know that they are the perfect accent to the color direction we’re heading for our kitchen and
family room!
I thought I’d share a little sneak peek with the pillow accent, just in case you are interested 🙂
I’ve had these wonderful fish paintings for over a year….they tie in nicely! I misplaced them in a file
and got worried I’d never find them….thank goodness that didn’t happen!
Hi there. I’m you newest follower. I found your blog from Bonnie over at Smile Monsters, so I thought I’d pop over and say hi!
Oh those bring back sweet memories…My grandmother had those sitting on her breakfast table and I always loved to play with them- I will have to check and see if she still has them somewhere!
These are from the 60’s…….everyone had them. I was so relieved when my Mom finally put them away…..it’s so funny to see someone excited about them again. I really like your shell pillow and the fish prints. Nice colors.
Hi, I just found you through Nester’s Window Mistreatments. I love your tablecloth-turned-curtain! I have that same tablecloth for my patio table, only in aqua.
That faux-fruit really takes me back, lol! My grandmother had a bowl of the wooden fruit and my great-grandmother had the squishy kind. I used to love to pull the grapes off the stem and put them back on! haha
Oona…my mom had the squishy kind too. I use to pull them off and on too 🙂 That is funny!!
Dee thank you for telling me they are from the 60’s…I new they were old, but I wasn’t sure how old.
Laura… what color were your Grandmothers?
Laina, I’m glad you came over to say hi!! I’ll be over to visit you too 🙂
