I took a little vacation from lake house plotting to visit San Diego with my sister, but now I'm home and back at it. One thing I got finished on our closing weekend was my river house inspiration piece. I decided to replicate the blue bookshelves decorated with my white milk glass collection at the new place. The blue of these new shelves is a bit more subdued, but it still provides a lovely backdrop for the pop of vintage milk glass I love.
I unpacked all of my milk glass from the river house we had stored in the barn. Then I sacrificed a toothbrush to get it all scrubbed clean of dust to place on the shelves once the bookcases were delivered. I had a bit of a panic when I realized they put the shelves together on different levels and they were all screwed tightly in place. Ever handy and seldom stymied, I popped into the garage to scratch through the husband's tools to find a Philip's screwdriver to adjust the shelves. And voila - one lovely bit of decor in place at the lake so I can spend my brainpower on the fifty other things I need to do when we're up that way again soon.
