Inspired kitchenware

The windows of Fishs Eddy always look full to the brim, and therefore, a little claustrophobic-inducing. I remember smiling upon seeing "We did NOT lose our LEASE sale" signs before and making a mental note to stop by. I had forgotten until I walked past it on the way home one sunny afternoon.

Fishs Eddy carries kitschy and vintage-inspired pieces for your dining table and kitchen use. Granted, the glove molds that greet you when you come in are a bit creepy, like a horror flick when all these hands try to reach out and grab you. But if you pass this little test, you will be duly rewarded with some of the most unique and fun pieces that will ever grace your table. Check it out:
Brooklyn Salt & Pepper Pair $9.95
Aren't these Brooklyn salt and pepper shakers just adorable?
Guest Check tray, $7.95
Use these as dessert plates when you have guests over for dinner to have a little chuckle.

Swimmer glass, 15.5oz $5.50 each
Nothing says summer like swimmers in your glass!

Strip Tea Glass, $5.00 each
How about some strip tea glasses when you're feeling a little naughty?

American Glassware Pitchers, starting from $49.95
These graceful, jewel-toned pitchers are sure to fancy up any beverage you serve.

There were just so many beautiful things I couldn't decide what to get. I was in love! So I just lingered and woozily soaked everything in, promising to stop by again next time when I am more clear-headed. The store is small, so I was very careful not to bump against anything. Make sure you bring the smallest possible purse with you to lessen the chances of any unfortunate accidents happening.
