I feel the need for change....

Now, you are going to think I'm crazy but I told my daughter last week that I think I have too much Pyrex. GASP! Well, it all started when I was looking through some pictures. Here was how my wine rack looked when I bought my first set of Pyrex.


Here is how it looks today. 


Here was my Baker's Rack before I started collecting Pyrex.


Here it is today. 


Yikes! I am not liking the change. I still love my Pyrex but i just don't like my displays. I miss my roosters and sunflowers and all the additional decor. I think what I will do is display some of my pretty pieces I don't use much by putting them on top my cabinets and then the pieces I use a lot, I can keep out. But I want to start incorporating other items in my decor. For example, I found these fake eggs and this little Pyrex bowl. I am going to put the eggs in the bowl and then set it on a shelf with one of my roosters and some mixing bowls. 



Plus I would like to make this little wall hanging with a K for our kitchen.  I just love this. 

Monogram primitive wall decoration. Barnwood frame, glass removed. Gingham scrapbook paper, rusty chicken wire, and then a wood craft-store letter, sanded, painted white, then wood-stained. Screwed letter to back of frame, which also holds chicken wire and scrapbook paper to the back of the frame. Tied a big burlap bow through the chicken wire, put the whole thing back in the frame, and voilĂ !

So now I can't wait to start re-organized how my kitchen is decorated. Plus I can "shop" my own house in my storage for my roosters and things I want to get back out. I will be sure and do before and afters.
