Our cabinet-less kitchen

We knew we would need to get creative with our storage when we saw there were no cabinets in our new kitchen -- whoops, I'm sorry, there is one underneath the sink and a shallow glass cabinet above the stove. My china cabinet and pyrex shelf (you'll see below) have been moved to the hall which makes for a nice showcase of dishes, but for the most part we've downsized to the essentials and haven't looked back.

Though I have a love/hate relationship with Ikea -- I would like to thank them for their kitchen storage solutions. Who knows where we would be without those shelves (above).

Above is the massive glass "medicine" cabinet I was talking about -- not quite deep enough for plates but showcases our glass collection quite nicely :)

Our last kitchen felt like a dungeon so the extra windows are a breath of fresh air. You can also see a peak of our Flor tiles in the above photo....love, love, love those carpet tiles.

pyrex shelf

Out in the hallway -- our pyrex collection. To see more pictures just head over to my flickr website.

Vintage Plates : Peacock Modern's collection

I find vintage ceramics addicting, especially plates & mugs. I couldn't help but share a few patterns from Peacock Modern's flickr photostream -- ps. she also has an etsy shop.

I have a small collection of vintage plates -- does anyone else collect vintage ceramics?

Flickr Group: Vintage Mugs

I've mentioned before I can't help but thrift store shop for dishes..plates..mugs..tea pots..bowls..I don't discriminate. So when I was trying to decide what flickr group to profile this week I was instantly drawn to the one entitled "Vintage Mugs."

Rosanna

I found these pieces by Rosanna to be quite nice. A little bit feminine, with a little bit of flair. Nice color palettes as well. These dishes are each created by hand, "Handcrafted in a Mexican village, each piece is individually mouth blown, hand etched and sandblasted with distinctively Rosanna patterns … modern, yet comfortingly familiar."

Jenny Hofer Aprons

Jenny Hofer Designs has a selection of cute aprons and other accessories. I have a rather drab kitchen, so anything that helps add little life to the room, is a plus in my book.

Tea Towels

I found these clever tea towels from 5pm studio this morning on etsy. I am a sucker for embroidery and loved how playful these towels were. Oh, and check out this great mug...
