Hello Everyone,
At the south of our little garden cottage there is a small enclosed garden that is a nice sheltered place to enjoy lunch. It is amazing how quickly this garden filled in as it is only a few years since I moved some rose suckers into a narrow border along with a Beautybush that was being crowded in another bed.
Anyway,I have set up a table and collected the china that you may have seen on the new cupboard in the cottage that I showed you a few days ago.
My thrift shop pink plates and some Fairy roses.
Some sparkling raspberry drink
There is a clematis on either side of the arbor along with the roses.
The angel is watching over us.
She must have plucked this rose from the bush nearby!
The clematis on the right is Joesephine and on the right is Jackmani superbra.
Tea anyone?
Just a reminder to any local readers of the garden tour here on Sunday afternoon from 2-4:30.Tickets are $8. and all proceeds go to Muscular Dystrophy.
Today I am joining Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday and also Tea Time Thursday at Kreative Korner please go and check them out!
Thank you for visiting me,
Carolyn

This is absolutely wonderful! I love the pink layers in the place setting.
I'm almost positive that I have a set to match to one of the plates in the tiered dish. It's a set of plates that have long been a favorite in this very pink oriented house.
as often as i look at your blog, it is still new and exciting every time to me...
This is such a beautiful spot in your garden. I love the tablescape and the vintage chairs. The climatis superba is a very pretty bloomer! Lovely as always.
The pink thrift shop plates look amazing on your table, you really have a way with your settings!
You have created a wonderful spot. Your arbour is gorgeous and your table setting ~ soft and delicate... really welcoming. I see your Angel is enjoying the flowers from the garden ... we have the same one in our Angel Garden and she keeps watch over all the gardens and often is caring for a bloom that needs a little extra care... Happy Tablescape Thursday ..xo HHL - fellow Canadian .. we are in Ontario..
Oh my heart be still, this setting is breathtaking. I can just picture lovely ladies with big hats to shade themselves from the sun sitting at your blushing pink table enjoying the garden. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful,,,just beautiful...

Hello Carolyn, just visiting from Bronteland in Yorkshire, England. Everything has been drenched by heavy summer showers, and I am browsing other people's gardens instead of tending my own! Really glad I found your site: your images are beautiful, and so elegantly styled.
I've just posted on the beauty of pink roses on my blog - The Time Sculptor's Secret - and thought I'd had enough of flower photographs for a while, but now I am swooning all over again. I love your garden angel too; I'll be back!
I wish I lived close enough for the garden tour. Luckily for you, since I would never want to leave. So beautiful - what a lovely garden and what lovely dishes. Gorgeous! (as always)
Oh, what a pretty, pretty, PRETTY setting!!! I love all things pink, and this is a winner. I love how the bright, unexpected blue of the turquoise chair pops out. Gorgeous!
Carolyn, you will never know how much I love your site. I feel it depicts the "me" that I have always been searching and dreaming of.The "Me" that is buried deep inside of me, and would love to come out.I would love to know the titles of your music,so that I may order a copy for myself.Thank you for having such a beautiful site. I am so glad that I was able to find it.
Those fairy roses and Pink plates look so good together. Your garden is so beautiful. I love to visit your blog everyday because it is always full of colors and beauty.
I am hosting my first Link-up party - Tea Time Thursdays. Would be glad to see you there :)
