Decorating With Vintage Crocks

The snow is nearly gone here, and the lake is opening up!  I have even spotted some of my daylilies emerging! It definitely feels like spring is near!  I'm hoping you are all well.  With so much social distancing going on, I'm happy we can keep in touch online!

Today I am happy to be joining a new blog hop...A Lifestyle of Love! We will feature a new theme each time...with vintage, antiques, farmhouse, and repurposed!  
This time it is all about vintage crocks and stoneware!

Vintage crocks and stoneware are definitely on my treasure hunting list!  
I especially love the lighter colors, but collect some of the dark colors, too!
Recently I started decorating for spring, and of course my crocks made their way in!  
I love gathering them together in a simple spring vignette...so lovely.

I love the different color tones...

My largest crock is a five gallon. I love the old stoneware jug, too!

Here's another stoneware pot with a little crock.
Sometimes I decorate plain crocks, which are plentiful finds for me and fun to use for crafting.  On this little one, I used inkjet waterslide decal paper (if you ever try these, be sure to seal your image with spray sealer before soaking in water) and a printable from The Graphics Fairy.

 I have also made some reproduction marmalade crocks using stamps.  
I always mark them on the base as a reproduction.

I love the old English marmalade jars, and have two of them.  
One was a gift, the other a long awaited recent thrift store find!

Another recent thrifting find was this little French tea jar!

And I even use a French mustard crock to hold dishwashing utensils!

  6. These are all so much fun! I've never seen such a pretty collection. For all the times I've been looking for crocks I never realized there were two different colors ha ha. I'll definitely be keeping my eye out now. Love your marmalade jars too. I have one and it's such a treasure. Hope you're having a great weekend! Hugs, CoCo

  8. I love them all.

    I guess I need to add crocks to my list of things I look for at vintage markets.

  9. Oh how lucky you are to have such a wonderful collection! I love your use of the little decal to dress up a plain crock.

    I am still awaiting that magical junkin' moment of stumbling across an English marmalade jar. I have a couple of pieces of antique English advertising ironstone but not a crock.

    I absolutely love the look of lavender in crocks. I plan fill my big crock in the dining room with lavender or peonies soon.

    Beautiful ideas here!
