Today I’m loving … these paper thin porcelain lace bowls from Etsy shop Hideminy. Hidemi was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan where she earned her degree as a fashion designer. She sees beauty and joy in just about everything and wants to express it through her ceramics.

Simple, clean, and classic. These are the words that can be used to describe the vintage finds of Julie, the owner of Etsy shop The Old Red Hen. Thrifting, antiquing, and collecting have been part of Julie’s life since she was a young girl.

Her mother, grandmother, aunts & uncles have always filled their homes with timeworn treasures and interesting relics. Julie would never tire of looking at unusual vintage pieces or hearing stories of where they’d come from.

I love the white ceramic coffee pot in the image above. This handmade coffee pot is from Sargadelos. This Spanish label is one of Europe’s most unique porcelain design and creation companies, with more than two hundred years of history closely linked to the development of Galician culture in all spheres of creativity. The coffee pot, and a matching tea pot, is available from Le Souk.
