Hello Joanne Great haul like always. To clean coffee pot use ice cubes and salt . Swirl around the pot. It works wanders. This is what they use in restaurants. My favorite is cigar box and book. Hugs and have a awesome week. 😊😊😊😊😊

I love your dark academia picks. I have a small collection of it that I display all through the fall season . You could rub n buff the skull head and make it bronze, it would look amazing. Use the cigar box to put the brandy sniffers on along with the decanter next to it. Have fun with it, you can go crazy , it's a great decor style.

Bleach will clean the coffee pot, add boiling water to fill and let stand. Rinse well afterwards. I love dark academia styling. I like the step stool. I’m short. My parents would have a fit if anyone attempted to clean the tannin stain out of the teapot. Here in Australia, many people believe that it makes the tea taste much better as the pot is “seasoned.” Also, the milk must always go in the cup first. You should see the man in my life’s old tin tea cup. 😂😂❤

Brandy snifter. Put a short used drippy candle in the amber glass decanter. You should have picked up the matching candlestick the glass chimneys do not need to match. What does it say on the bottom of the teapot? Not a fan of skull. Sell it at your booth. Pothos is aka philodendron or a white and green variegated one is a devil’s ivy. It’s a bit more delicate. All prefer bright indirect light. The more light, the more white will appear in the plant. Do not place in a window, but near a window. I have a giant container of starts from different varieties. I’ll send you pictures of hearty plants which require light, but only indirectly. The further away from light source, the more spindly and weak they become. I love those dog stairs. Jack doesn’t use his any longer because he is totally blind. I love those Corning coffee pots. I had one with the Spice of Life design or another that had earthy tones. There was a recall on them years ago because the metal band would suddenly pop off and the handler would be severely burned by hot, even boiling coffee. They haven’t made them since. I remember those pots, mine was the larger one, were relatively expensive at the time. Corning offered you a credit or refund and I think it was like $2.00. What a joke. I used mine very rarely after that and disposed of it at some point. I rarely drank coffee back then anyway and usually only if I went out to eat. I didn’t make it at home.

My favorite item is. The same as you. It is perfect. Now this is just my opinion, but I wouldn't use the wire basket in her room. It needs, again just my opinion, a dark leather or faux covering or just a deep color. A coat of arms of such, would look great. You know these rooms in the 50s and 60s etc. were men's office/ library but called their den. That is of course later the men's den was changed and den became what was livingroom. The great room and family room. Sorry I didn't mean to write a book. I always watch and hit "like" , but hardly ever comment. Ha ha
