Milk Glass


Don't you just love milk glass? It reminds me of my aunt and uncle's house I use to go to all the time as a kid, full of awesome vintage treasures and antique furniture, camellias growing in the shade in the the backyard, the smell of fresh ground coffee filling the kitchen, PB&J with natural PB and nutty bread for lunch, and that warm, dappled Sacramento sunshine streaming in through the open windows... I digress.

One of my sister's friends collected milk glass vases for a while and had a different one at every table at her wedding. Such a lovely idea!

There a lot of inexpensive vintage milk glass items available on Etsy. Here are just a few of my favorites that are listed now (or will be until I buy them all!).

Right? There's just something naturally nostalgic about it. It feels happy.
