Simple Pleasures: Small Trinkets for the House

Today, I'm linking up with  a Simple Pleasures party, hosted by Dayle at http://alittleofthisandthat2.blogspot.com/   

Decorations for the house are part of the small pleasures of life. 

Finding them, like treasures, at yard and estate sale makes them even more appealing. 

Take the Victorian night light pictured above.  I found it at a yard sale. After perusing all of the tables, thinking "nothing I can't live without,"   the Victorian night light came to my attention. It would definitely add a touch of pizazz to the decor of the house.

Picking it up and looking at it more closely,  I inquired about the price.

     "Two dollars," came the answer.  Sold!

After finding out the price, the nightlight became irresistable since it was so affordable. It's creamy beige and has long, beaded strands hanging from a tufted satin top. It  now adds a touch of class to a downstairs bathroom.

Another little simple pleasure came in the shape of a tea cup!  It's actually a night light with a gorgeous rose on it.  One of my sisters gave it as a gift.  It's a perfect match for my set of Prince Albert Old Country Rose dishes. 

Simple pleasures absolutely do not need to cost much and can add to the joy of keeping up a house.
