Tuesday's Treasure ~ Ginger Jars

It's been a while since we've gone on a TT&B treasure hunt but I have been hunting and want to bring you up to speed! 
Ginger jars.
Love them.
So many things you can do with them; they go everywhere! While I don't have any surfaces to put them at the moment (another post to come on that, I need some bookshelves!) but that doesn't mean I can't start collecting!

So, here we go. Ginger jars. 
Ginger jars have a long line of history amongst Chinese culture. According to most resources, "A Ginger Jar is shaped with a wide mouth, a domed lid and a bulging, bulbous spherical hand painted body. They come in various styles and sizes and in many different colors. The true Chinese antique Ginger Jar is made of porcelain and hand painted. The jars acquired the name “Ginger Jars” because they often contained ginger (which was one of the most valuable spices at the time) when they were exported to the West."

So my lovelies, Ginger Jar treasures to fill your home on this fine Tuesday!

Thursday's Treasure Hunt... Antlers

Whether you're a huntsmen or not, you must admit, antlers are a pretty cool thing. They each have their own unique branching design making for awesome pieces of wall art, accents on shelves and tabletops, and even the make-up of some great mirrors and chandeliers!

Be on the look out for that spot in your house in need of a set of antlers!

Farmhouse Foyer -- the antlers complete the look!

A-Tisket A-Taskit Tuesday

...A green and yellow basket...
Or any color basket for that matter!!
Baskets, baskets everywhere

Happy Tuesday!

 A shlew of baskets make for a fabulous wall display!

 Matching basket and napkin holder is the perfect organizer for your barware

 Love the big french basket under the console filled with ferns

 Baskets are perfect for storing throws in your living room

This large basket adds another element to the table display while also serving as the perfect place to store all of your favorite reading material

 Pullout basket storage built-in to your kitchen island

 Flat-back basket is perfect for sprucing up your front door

Open shelves in the kitchen allow for varying sized baskets to be displayed -- which also serve as great "hiding" places for various kitchen necessities

These open weave baskets add some texture to this sleek white kitchen

Dough Baskets makes for a great catch-all in the kitchen

Design Chic recommends the natural colored basket as it brings the color of the floor up to the counter top

Heck, you can even incorporate basket weave into a cake just as the couple did at this Magnolia Plantation wedding

Jars of buttons invoke tones and texture (yet are inexpensive to collect in large quantity)

Who said you can't incorporate buttons into almost anything? 
Button details make this vintage inspired wedding cake complete.
