Hello Everyone!
I hope you had a good weekend. We had heavy rain most of the weekend but it was nice and warm at least. I went to an auction sale on Saturday where there was lots of interesting pieces that went pretty cheap.I got a little table and a vintage galvanized cooler for $5 and a mirror for $7 so I was happy with that.I wish I had taken my camera to show you some of the unusual pieces like a buttercup yellow vintage stove.
Since I didn't take any photos this weekend I am sharing some mosaics that I like from my vast collection!
Hope you all like dishes as much as I do!

I love this teacup.

Thank you for visiting,

Such lovely and sweet soft things...I could gaze at them all day long...San Francisco is having such beautiful weather...I can't believe it. It's just been so awe-full. Happy Sunday..with love Janice
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of your best posts. I love plates too and your collection is exactly my taste.
ReplyDeleteI would love to come stay at your home, Carolyn. I'm sure it would be very soothing and dream-like.
ReplyDeleteWarm days will surely be upon us once again, though they will surely be few. Hope you get that painting done before the snow flies!
The blue and white spode tea-cups are darling. I must look for them in my local antique shops.
ReplyDeleteI do love china as much as you do! You have a very beautiful collection Carolyn. The photos are so pretty. Have a wonderful week and I hope we both get some sunshine. It's very soggy out there!
ReplyDeleteAlways fun visiting you. So many pretty things. I really like the green and white! I would have such a hard time picking a teacup :) But, would be thrilled with any you'd choose to served to me. I think that would be the only problem I'd have there!! Even the rain sounds delightful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful teacups and other china pieces, warm and inviting rooms, pretty flowers and soap that I imagine smells heavenly.
ReplyDeleteYou are an inspiration for home decor Carolyn.
Have a great week.

All I can say is BEAUTIFUL! Absolutly beautiful! Those photo's were terrific, and very inviting. I would love to come to your home and have tea with you, and stay in one of those guest rooms, oh my...
ReplyDeleteI would like to reserve the one with the pretty pink lace night gown. I am a lace and pink girl all the way!
I just love your blog!
Reading your blog and looking at your amazing pictures is like taking medicine - just makes everything ALL BETTER.
ReplyDeleteOh Carolyn, what a lovely post, so beautiful! Thank you!
This post is lovliness extraordinaire! After buying yet another delicate teacup, I was asked,'what are you going to do with them'? How can I count the ways I appreciate them? Their beauty remind me of a verse in Phillipians .. whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things. A lovely teacup with tea can mirror a heart that is gentle and kind ... a heart that serves.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this shared beauty.
Ahhh....what a nice little reprieve! All so lovely. I think I like the teacup you love the best too. It's so refined and demure and lovely. Thank you for a nice visit to your place. ~Zuni
ReplyDeleteI love all your beautiful mosiacs. I am a pastel girl at heart.
ReplyDeleteScusami , non conosco l'inglese, ma devo dirti che le tue foto sono una meraviglia! Complimenti, davvero.
ReplyDeleteUn caro saluto , Sandra.
Wow Carolyn. These photographs are just spectacular and should be on magazine covers. You are fortunate to come across such lovely and beautiful vintage items. I love stopping by your blog. You always inspire me.
ReplyDeleteAll is beautiful here. I don't think I could pick a favorite for sure. Just love what you share each day.
ReplyDeleteYou have so many lovely dishes I think my face is turned green of envy, lol. So beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHere we had lots of rain and wind this weekend too. Thankfully the wind is gone by now. I don't like it!
Hope you have a nice day,.
Love Elzie
Dear Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteYour collection of teacups is just beautiful! What is it with teacups & plates that attracts us so much? :-)
Your white and light blue bedroom looks lovely. It must be a delight for your grandchildren to stay over and sleep in this room.
Happy new week!
