Hello everyone,
Today, I have more beauty to share with you as a follow up from my last post. As, I mentioned in my last post a reader of my blog sent me some beautiful photos of her home and all the beautiful treasures she has collected over the years and I have been given permission to share them with you.
I love the tea set above-the color is so pretty..
Lots of pretty things to see here-the doll and cradle really caught my eye! This is such a pretty bedroom.
Love this feminine chair!
Can't help but love this too!
Beyond beautiful!
Delicate and pretty!
Another beautiful antique dress.Did all the ladies have such a tiny waistline back then???
Adorable hats and a lovely glass cabinet full of more treasures.
A pretty teapot with a spout strainer-I have never seen one of those before.
Antique lace
As March is getting closer I am in the mood for spring cleaning and getting some little projects done so my camera/computer time has been slashed dramatically! I hope you will be patient with me as I may be a little more sporadic for awhile.
Thank you for visiting,
Carolyn

Loved seeing such a gorgeous room, Carolyn. Thanks so much for sharing. Your blog is bliss! Susan
What a sweet & beautiful bedroom. I have some of the same elements in the bedroom we have for our granddaughter when she sleeps over....the iron bed, curio, teapots on a shelf. I also have my grandmother's hand-made gown hanging on the door. However, this room is much prettier than mine...also gives me some new ideas. Thanks for sharing.
My goodness these are beautiful things. That teapot is wonderful! And the china is amazing.
The lacy dresses are so lovely, the china is all gorgeous and I love the little cradles.
How wonderful to have a friend who has all of these fabulous treasures in her home. I'm so glad you allowed you to photograph them.
Hugs, Cindy
Beautiful! It's like taking a step back in time. Wouldn't it have been fun to be in that era and wear thos beautiful dresses and use those lovely laces and dishes? Oh my...I could get carried away!
I love that bow backed chair! I have never seen anything like it
What a great collection! I love buying teapots but have never seen a strainer before. I'll have to put it on my list for items to watch for.
Enjoy our spring cleaning. I started this weekend & can't believe what I've gotten rid of & reorganized. All during a blizzard, our first this winter!
OH MY!!!!!!! I don't know if I love the china/tea sets or the lacey white dresses most! Thanks for sharing.

What a beautiful home. Can understand you were thrilled about these pictures. Does this woman have a blog? If not, it would be great if she got one, lol.
Hope you enjoy your spring cleaning!

Your friend's collection is beautiful. By showing it to us you have taken what could have been an ordinary day and filled it with exquisite beauty. Spectacular collection.
Thank you both.
Dolcissima Carolin, hai ricevuto davvero una visita meravigliosa.
Tutte queste cose mi fanno tornare indietro nel tempo...a me in particolare fanno impazzire le cuffiette..le adoro, ma è tutto cosi romantico che fa venire nostalgia.
Attendo con ansia il prossimo post!

I've never seen such a wonderful collection of antiques before. Beautifully displayed with all the teapots, cups and saucers. I am jealous.
Jody
Wow! What a great bunch of pictures! Who has collections like that? (Only the most dedicated and discriminating of collectors, that's who!) Great post. Now I'll be researching spout-strainers.
That home of yours is looking good. Nice work! It's beautiful!

Beautifull pastel blue. One of my favorites!
Carolyn ... I feel I'm about to jump out of my skin after viewing these wonderful images of your friend's collection ... for never have I seen anyone with so many things in one place that I too own, and have been collecting over the years. The French wire doll cradle and toy iron bed (I have three), the christening robes, the little dresses and matinee coats, the precious bonnets, even the picture on the wall, and related items too many to list ... and hers all displayed so lovingly with great attention to detail. Seems like I fell into my own closet and came out into a dream world when I saw her photos. However, I do pity her the ironing (if she does her own) because I'm fairly sure I've spent years of my life teasing little ruffles, pintucks and tiny laces into renewed perfection ... I would so love to meet, or talk to this person who shares such an ongoing passion for these precious little fragilities of the past. And, thank you Carolyn, for introducing her to us through her photographs. Best regards ... Monica Roberts
