{ Adding Summertime Charm in the Kitchen }

Hey Mondayyy & welcome back pals!! Hope your weekend was everything summer entails, ours was busy!! We looked at another property, vehicle shopped, enjoyed the cozy storms..even if they used our patio umbrella as a causality ha. With summer coming to its  prime here in Michigan, I wanted to share some recent barn finds styled in our little cottage kitchen!! Sitting here thinking this could be our last year  in a home I love is a bit emotional!! Anyways come see some vintage summery finds styled on our counters for the season!!


 

So little back story about these mini vintage strawberry mugs..I visited our local barn sale & spotted these! I was instantly drawn to them because they 're so bright but in a cute country vintage way. Just as I was about to put them back because they're so colorful my dear friend stepped in & said " Paige, you NEED those!" She was right...I decided not to let the red detour me but more embrace how old they really were+ cottagey. Truth be told they remind me of my pappa & grams home in northern Michigan where we used to go strawberry hunting each summer at the local farm!


 
I added the chippy strawberry print & vibrant apples paired with the fresh Baby's breath from my mom's garden for a fresh summer feel!

The butter dish also has a story, but I'll just say my mom has ESPN & the studded antique milk glass is stunning! 
• The milky white masons are vintage replicas from @marshalls 


 

After a long few days, I needed this happy charming fresh space! It's been a very stressful year with health, property hunting & business stuff. ..but some much needed rainy downtime was what I needed!


 

This isn't the stove of my dreams 
{ Hallman ♡} but I dressed it up a bit with a stove cover, easy silverware caddy & some milk bottles { obviously remove before cooking}. 


I really hope you enjoyed this cheery summer spot in our home!!

HAPPY MONDAY!
