Someplace in Thyme

I have been creating since I was a little girl. I am happy to say that having my own website has opened up a whole new world for me. Trying new mediums is a joy and sometimes a real eye opener. I sell what I create on etsy and my website, someplaceinthyme. If you have questions,please email me at cpeterson72@q.com. I welcome new blog friends and am honored if you find my little piece of heaven interesting enough to follow.

What's In Your Cupboard? Come Join The Etsy Cottage Style Fun!

We at Etsy Cottage Style want to see what's in your cabinets....so, if you have a cottage collection behind wood,glass, or anything else,  please show us!! Link with me and lets see what you are hiding. Now is the time to bring it all out. Today I am showing off some of my pitcher collection. Most of my pieces have been picked up on our travels, enjoy.

All of these are handmade, some from France and Germany, others from artists in the old ole U.S.A.


We bought this wine pitcher at a winery in France. It's very heavy, and holds the cold temps well.

The tall pitcher in the back is a Polish Pottery pitcher, the one in the front is from the great state of Virginia. I love to use it for maple syrup on the weekends.....pancakes and waffles, yumO!


These are from Germany, the large one in the back is wonderful for spirits :) or lemonade in the summer, the smaller one is perfect for gravy.


I feel very lucky to have found this little goodies. It's a warmer and I use it for apples and caramel. You probably could also use it for melted cheese, but I have not tried that yet.



You can tell by the colors that this goodie came from Italy. Great for juices and also sometimes I use these for holding my fresh cut flowers too.



Love the colors.....


Although this little Italian pretty is a water pitcher, I never use it for that. It just sits on the shelf and says "look at me."


If I had to pick a favorite, it would probably be this one. Not only do I have a pitcher, but there is a matching bowl and platter....love that.


You can probably guess what this gets used for, especially in the spring and summer when the lemons are ripe.
I hope you enjoyed a peek into one of my cupboards. I can't wait to see what's inside yours.
Please join in and lets have some fun.
