Collected | February 10, 2012

I have a particular weakness for homewares...such as, colourful bowls and interesting glassware. Shown above are the current state of my collections in the aforementioned areas. Not shown above are my vast collections of teapots, teacups, bottles and jars.

There are only two things I know for certain in this life- Firstly, that all these collections will continue to grow at an alarming rate, despite having run out of excuses for why such growth is necessary. Secondly, that I have absolutely no willpower whatsoever.

    Glorious collections! I'm head over heels in love with that green glass. I always think I'm saving little unwanted crockery and glasses, that way I feel justified every time I buy one. After all it's a GOOD DEED!

    I feel the same way. The variety of homewares out there seems endless which makes it so fun when you find something new!

    I love your bowls! Also, don't worry. I have many many teacups and teapots. Though I'm still looking for a tiny white elephant teacup. then my collection will be complete.:D

    What inspiration! I actually have a few of the bowls and glasses shown here in my cupboard of lovely mismatched kitchenware. I've always loved each piece individually, but I've never thought of them as a collection until seeing this post. Now I wont shy away from adding a new mismatched item ever again!

    Lack of willpower definitely has its upside! This is a fabulous collection!
  19. karina | Feb 12, 2012
    I love the floral ones! Where did you get them?
  20. Where My Heart Is | Feb 12, 2012
    I'm the same. Actually give me homewares over fashion any day. My problem I am running out of storage space.
  21. sharon | Feb 12, 2012

    These are so sweet! I'm constantly looking for dishes like these for food photo shots.
  26. Rylie | Feb 15, 2012
    Ah! They are all so pretty! I have the same problem, especially with mugs and things I never use, like pitchers, or tea cups.
  27. funkytime | Feb 22, 2012
    love your bowls and glasses! i could buy those things all the time, they just laugh at me down from the shelves! i am also living next to the biggest flea market in Europe, that doesnt make it easier to whithstand my 'home ware addiction' !

    I have the same problem, whenever I go to Homegoods I have to reeaaally hold myself back from buying their beautiful glassware. Sometimes they have gian and oddly shaped glass bottles and those are the most difficult to walk away from.

    Stunning collection and beautifully photographed, like something off an Anthropologie website!
