Cute little vintage find


{Picture from my instagram @greylace}

I found this lovely little pear-shaped canister while out op-shopping with Matt the other day. He was on the lookout for a bread maker (I know random!) and I was hoping to find a teapot or two. Just before we were about to leave I thought I'd just quickly check the 'bric a brac' section and then this little pretty caught my eye! It was very dusty and dirty but seeing as it was only $1 I thought I'd get it anyway and see if a bit of scrubbing would make it just like new (which I am very please to say it did!). I just love the pretty, pastel floral-ness and I also love the fact that it is shaped like a pear and has a picture of a pear on it! It's just too cute for words! I'm thinking of using it to stick cake pops in at my tea party.

  1. Hi, have just discovered your lovely blog, what a great find. Using it to put cake pops in is such a good idea. Just love your bunting from your previous post, the doily over the fabric looks so pretty. Caroline x
