While I realize I haven't had a chance to share pictures from our trip to Turkey yet, I wanted to at least show you some of the cute things I managed to bring back with me. It was a challenge finding unique and authentic souvenirs, but once we trekked off the beaten path there were many lovely shops selling handmade, vintage, and/or beautifully crafted items that didn't break the bank. This vintage teapot and set of bowls totally caught my fancy - dating from the 60s, they feature the colors and patterns I love. The shop was packed with these original Turkish pieces - so playful and fun, don't you think? Seriously, if I had had another suitcase, I would have brought many, many more home with me. I also appreciated finding the original version of the ikat bowls that have become so popular at a certain store many of us frequent...

Love those ikat bowls - I was eyeing up those anthropologie ones recently and I may just have to make another trip there to pick some up!
I can't believe that ikat bowl is the exact same as the one at Anthropolgie!!
did you find that green ikat bowl in turkey? i can't believe anthropolgie straight up copied the design with no alterations - it looks the EXACT same!
wonderful finds- looking forward to more pics...and pics of turkey!
what special finds. when the hubs and I were in turkey {a few months back}, I wasn't able to get off the beaten path and discover gems like these. although the grand bazaar was full of fun.
Time to have a tea party!
Love the photography styling! Hope you enjoyed yourself in Turkey! I'm certain you did!
Lovin' the little teapot!
