I still have my Christmas decorations up. (Except for the tree which was too dry to keep up any longer). I celebrate Serbian Orthodox Christmas on January 7th so I usually keep the decorations up until after that.
Then, the cleaning begins. I am going to tackle an early spring cleaning to get ahead of myself. Especially since the weather forecast is for extreme cold next week. A perfect time for me to stay inside and do some work.
I spent 4 1/2 hours redesigning my space at Carriage House Antiques yesterday. I took out all of the Christmas treasures and put in lots of white. The January issue of Country Living spotlights milk glass. I recently went through my milk glass collection and took out the duplicate pieces and ones that I didn't want anymore. I added them to my space yesterday.
There's also some pieces on the side shelves.
I definitely like how the space is much more open now. It seems brighter and easy to look through. Here's a picture from another angle.
I'm looking forward to doing some thrift store shopping today. I didn't get to do that much while the holidays were here. I did get to an estate sale on Saturday and found quite a bit of vintage embroidered Christmas linens. I was thrilled!
Happy treasure hunting!
