Here’s the breakdown of costs:
– shelf : $15 (and she removed the doors on the top half – she can still hide things away in the bottom)
– blue bottles : $1, $2, and $3 each
– peach Fiesta Ware bowls : 6 for $3
– various serving bowls : $1.50 each
– wooden mini bowls : 4 for $1.50
– blue tea pot : $3
– blue oval bowl : $1.50
– wooden salad bowls : $2
– light blue dinner plates : 6 for $2
– red mini bowls : 6 for $3
– red patterned mugs : 4 for $6
– red ramekins : gift from friend
That’s about $30 for the contents and $15 for the shelf. Impressive!
For the final touch, she added the potted plant, some books from her living room, and a dish of freshly baked oatmeal cookies. You want to have dinner at my sister’s, right?
Hope this inspires you to go thrifting and make your kitchen extra cozy!
Have a wonderful weekend,
Rebecca

Wow, this is SO inspiring and beautiful! We live in a little apartment with very little counterspace. But, I think we have the perfect (and only place) to put a shelf like this. Maybe this will be the weekend project?
Love it! I'd like to do something like this for my home.
I mean, this is amazing! Your sister did such a fabulous job! Thrift stores are the perfect place to find eclectic pieces.
This is beautiful–and so artfully styled!
I love this!!! I don't have a place in my kitchen for this but I am thinking about where I could put something similar. And I can't believe the price!! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
Beautiful. Come spend a day at my house and help me get inspired!

Incredible!! That's about all I can say. And yes, totally coming over to your sister's for a snack and chat. 😉
Hilary, I'm sure she'd live that!! Sea currently 1.5 weeks overdue and is desperate for distractions 😉
incredible and inspiring! I love the colors too!
She's done a great job. The effect is very warm and cozy. And quite an inspiration that she did it so cheaply.
That' a lovely arrangement. Also, a beautiful shelf! 🙂
How charming! I don't have room for an actual cabinet in my place, but I removed the doors from one of my upper cabinets for a similar look. I love being able to see dishware and little kitchen-y tidbits… adds a bit more of a lived-in and welcoming feel, I find. 🙂 Mine: http://blog.kristin-b.com/2012/04/13/apt-tour-kitchen/ 🙂
