{ Antique Collection Display Tips }

My love, well our love of antiques stems pretty far back with us! I grew up around lakes & up north at my grandparents who always had amazing thrifty antiques! From furniture picking to mini metal items, glass & so on! It wasn't until Mark & I were married at 21 that my love for vintage, antiques & collections grew!! You see he's always loved vintage goods & his work would take him all over the state & he would find the niftiest goods! He inspired me to start this very blog & today I'm sharing some of my collections with you all while sharing my SIMPLE display tips!!!




I'll be blogging this dining cabinet soon for 4th of July,  but here are some more collections on top of here! I love old glass spice racks, mason jars etc.. My grandma had the coolest spice rack over her sink. I remember always admiring it as a kid & her story of picking it out of a catalog.  Boy do I miss her. .


-FAVORITE DISPLAY COLLECTIONS:

. brown milk jugs/ bottles 
. Apothecary containers 
. Mini crocks 
. Old medicine glass
. Unique dishes
. Mason jars
. Pitchers
. Punch bowls 
. Pie dishes


-HOW to STYLE:

1. GROUP LIKE PIECES/ COLORS 
2. DARKER COLORS ON ENDS
3. TALLER PIECES / BOTTLES IN THE BACK
4. LARGER ITEMS ON THE BOTTOM SHELVES 
5. ADD GREENERY POPS


I have a few more sets of dishes but this is pretty much most of it,  with the exception of larger pieces like pitchers, crocks etc..



I hope you liked this quick post & look at our collections!! I'll be adding some mini crocks & wish I could fit our larger ones in here! • Do you collect anything special? 

HAPPY Thursday!
