Transformations and Treasures No. 8

And we're back!
We had a nice little group of friends who linked up last week for the purse party!  So fun to see those of you who linked up.

I thought I'd give you a look at some of the treasures I've been picking up recently for the now confirmed show in a couple weeks.

I found this pretty etched bottle and dressed it up with a cameo, pearl embellished ring, and some French crinkle ribbon.  I still keep wanting to add more to it, but for now I'm letting it be.

 I found these beautiful white pieces- loving the milk glass urn! 
The longer piece is from Portugal- my heart is telling me to hold onto this one!  I think it's a tureen of some sort, but I think it needs to be on my island counter top as a planter!  :)


I have always loved cherubs.  This cute little dish with the cherub holding it up was too pretty to pass up.


This ceramic bowl was full of pretty details -and in my favorite color!
Very regal looking.  I think it would be gorgeous next to a tub holding bath salts, loofahs, or maybe filled with water and holding a single floating flower....


What treasures do you have to show us today??

A room makeover?  A stunning furniture transformation?  Or maybe some vintage treasures like mine?

Please remember, you can link up more than one item,
but if you've already linked up a post previously, share something new with us. 
Thanks!!
