love affair number one

one of my long-time love affairs has been since this movie...

Sweet Home Alabama

not necessarily the movie...well I do love the movie quite a bit too....

but something I found I love just as much

one of my very favorite parts was when she was in his shoppe

and saw the

"deep southern glass"

or at the carnival when she first asked about who made it...

I think the movie actually coined it deep southern glass

but it is really hand-blown glass

Simon Pearce actually made the "deep southern glass" in the movie

but I'm going to call it "deep southern glass"

just simply because it sounds better to me:)

My love affair comes down to this

glassware

sound silly

not to me....I just love, love to notice and look at new glassware

it's not something I need at the moment because there are other things to do first

but I always love to look at what's out there

we have these recycled green highball glasses that we got for our wedding I just love

and now Pier One has a pitcher to go with them

how funny is that!

but I love the thickness and uniqueness to every single piece

I was looking for some new glassware inspiration because my thick green glasses are starting to break/crack piece by piece over the years...

here are some of my favorites...

I always love the slenderness of these juice glasses

and of course the color

blues are my favorite

maybe I need to venture out and do a different color...

but do you know that the only "color" I have in my home is blue

and I do have a lot of blue...just different shades

well I take that back the girls have a ton of pink!

the rest is well...you know neutral, white, etc.

I'm kind of all over the place with my glassware inspiration but I couldn't help notice these chalk it stemless glasses from Pier One

how fun are those?

and they even have a carafe with it too...

patterns in white are just beautiful to me...

and of course these matching goblets too...oh my...so pretty

the price of those by the piece would totally freak the hubby out

not to mention I don't think I would pay that right now...

so in any event...

some good selections from IKEA

why do I even look there when the nearest is over 5 hours away?

well anyway...

couldn't help but adore these mugs in blue

and I can see vintage silverware in these

I was looking for some fun glasses for the hubs...

these mugs with stems came about....

how cute are they?

I think they would be fantastic with flowers in them

of course....my little thing with polka-dots exists too...

and I found these

now they would be jumping up and down perfect if they were super narrow

now this picture...I didn't mean to upload it but

oh I'm ready to take the family to pick some peaches to make some peach pie...

last but not least...I found two places with some

deep southern {bubble} glass

oh how I fell in love

because they look exactly like my green

but clear beautiful white!!!

{sigh}

they may be the perfect ones...
