Sweet Kim's Home

Seltzer Bottles






I just love these adorable seltzer bottles. Wonderful patina on the metal tops. 

Kim's new  favorite item to collect are the Vintage Loving Cups.

One of the cups has an inscription that reads:

"For outstanding zeal and enthusiasm"...  

History can be quite inspiring!


Vintage Loving Cups



I found a super cool scale in Kim's kitchen area. What a great way to add visual interest to your decor.

 
This scale was once used in a candy store. This is one of Kim's most favorite scales.
Imagine weighing huge bags of candy on this baby!
Cool Scale


















Pretty In Pink Scale!


Vintage Apothecary Jars 

Roses Roses Roses
Soap Collection



I found this beautiful Christie Repasy painting in Kim's bathroom. Her latest addition to her substantial and growing collection. She just adores Christie's work.








The simplest things can represent romance as this gathering of hotel soaps bring back memories of travel and adventure.



Vintage Pin Money Banks


 Some rare and ornate Pin Money Banks are displayed in a apothecary cabinet. Oh My!

Kim's husband searched high and low to find some of these banks. He always wins on eBay when he has to have a certain item for her. ;)

I love how Kim has managed to incorporate romance with rusty patina and french inspired decor.

Romantic decor is open to interpretation. Do what inspires you! Feel free to incorporate roses and romance with industrial patina. Follow your passion and watch your dreams come true.
