🪴 Thursday Fun Fact 🪴
Did you know? 💚🧡
Coloured glass vases like these became especially popular during the 1960s and 1970s. Their rich amber and emerald green colours were created by adding different minerals to the molten glass during production—not by painting the surface.
These oversized goblet-style vases are incredibly versatile. They can be used for: ✨ Fresh or dried flowers 🕯️ Floating candle displays 🌿 Decorative branches 🏡 Or simply as beautiful statement pieces on their own.
Their timeless colours pair perfectly with cottage, farmhouse, vintage, and modern homes, making them just as stylish today as they were decades ago.
📍Available now at Bianca's Cottage Furniture. Which would you choose—the warm Amber or the bold Emerald Green? Let us know in the comments! 💚🧡

💙 Design Dilemma! We need your opinion... 💙
What do you think of these two upcycled dressers styled together in the same bedroom?
Would you: 💙 Use both in the same room for a fun, eclectic look? 🤍 Prefer matching bedside tables instead? 🌿 Mix and match only if the colours and wood tones tie everything together?
There's no right or wrong answer—we'd love to hear your decorating style!
👇 Comment below: 👍 YES – I'd happily use both together. ❤️ NO – I'd rather have matching furniture.

🤓✨ Fun Fact Friday ✨
🪨 Did You Know?
Every soapstone sculpture begins as a solid piece of natural stone, carefully hand-carved by skilled artisans before being polished to reveal its smooth, velvety finish.
• Soapstone is one of the oldest carving stones used by humans, dating back thousands of years.
• It gets its name from its smooth, soap-like texture.
• Each piece has unique natural colours and patterns, making every carving one of a kind.
• Soapstone is easy to carve by hand but becomes durable enough to last for generations.
• Many African artisans continue this centuries-old tradition, passing their carving skills from one generation to the next.
Our newest handcrafted pieces include:
🐘 Elephant – A timeless symbol of wisdom, strength, loyalty, and good fortune. An elephant with its trunk raised is traditionally believed to bring luck and prosperity into the home.
🦅 Eagle with Wings Spread – Representing freedom, courage, vision, and strength. This impressive sculpture makes a bold statement and is perfect for nature lovers or anyone looking for a striking décor piece.
⛏️ Miner Relief Carving – A tribute to Africa's rich mining heritage, honouring the resilience, determination, and hardworking spirit of miners.
Whether you're decorating your home, searching for a meaningful gift, or adding to your collection, these handcrafted soapstone sculptures bring natural beauty and timeless craftsmanship to any space.
