<b>Set of 4 Vintage Blue Wine Glasses</b>
How cool is this?! I glimpsed these on Etsy this week and was mesmerized. I have never really been a fan of coloured glassware, believing they quickly look dated and tacky or just plain Liberace-esque, but there is something about these glasses that are slightly medieval - with their deep set jewel shaped cuts and always in style watery shade of deep blue, that makes these a fab choice for any and every dinner party. N'est ce pas?

At only $20 they can be found in <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=38746076">Karli Hearrons</a> etsy store.

<strong>Rainbow Birds Salt and Pepper Shakers</strong>
Vintage? Check, Swallow type birds in the design? Check, Colour colour colour? Check! These vintage salt and pepper shakers are so fun I just had to share. Currently on sale for a mere $22 in the etsy store of <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37987573">JessJameJake</a>, these salt and pepper shakers are not for the light at heart. They will make a strong contribution to your kitchen/dining space decor for sure!

<strong>Chalkboard made from Vintage / Salvaged Window 26 x 18</strong>
I love how many kitchens have been using <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/la/inspiration/inspiration-chalkboard-backsplashmarie-claire-maison-mayjune-2008-052196">chalkboard paint</a> as both a design and practical element. But for those of us a little less bold, this salvaged window turned chalk board by <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=38546345">Half Pint Salvage</a>, really hits the nail on the head.
For sale at a mere $67 it even rather smartly uses the window pull as a cubby for holding the chalk you will use to pen your kitchen haiku's. (Or shopping list!).

<strong>Teak Serving Tray</strong>
A lovely Danish looking serving tray with a crosshatched teak wood pattern with matching wood handles. This is a nice way to introduce some Mid-Century Modernism into your home without it looking like a set from Austin Powers or some such. The price is $49 and for a one off piece that is large, (20 inches wide), it is both a practical and stylish element to own.
Check it out in <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37667187">Hindsvik's</a> store.
