I hope you are enjoying your week and getting into the Christmas spirit.
transferware and added some holiday touches.
came from an antique barn in Maine a few years ago.
I am often asked about it when I share it.
a wood pellet stove keeps it too warm for a real one. I am hoping to get a
real one up soon in our library.
If you would like to see where I display my brown and white transferware click here.
Thank you for stopping by on this crisp sunny day. I have heard talk of a nor'easterheaded our way for Sunday bringing a good supply of snow!

Dear Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteThe Brown and White is a hit with me. I love it!

You've set a nice table with your brown and white transferware. I recently found a purple TW plate but there won't be any collection happening.
ReplyDeleteIt's always nice to see so many place settings for your large family.
I enjoyed the Christmas book Carolyn, well put together.

It's a beautiful setting, Carolyn! It looks so comfy and cozy in this room, too. Some place that would invite lingering over conversation and something warm to drink.
ReplyDeleteYes, we are supposed to get more snow coming Friday night and into Saturday. That means a run to the grocery store tomorrow morning to stock up on the necessities.
What a beautiful table. The brown tranferware is simply elegant among the rustic of the pine cones and the evergreen and berries in the pitcher. Just breath-taking! Thanks for sharing.

What a gorgeous set of brown transfer ware you have, Carolyn! A few months ago I found one platter at an estate sale for $15. It is the only piece I have, but I cherish it.

Absolutely BREATHTAKING room and tablescape - so beautiful!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove, love your table with your brown transferware and pine cone candles. This inspires me to see what I can do with my red transferware collection for my Christmas dinner table. I never thought of using chargers with my TW plates, but yours look so elegant. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration.
ReplyDeleteTruly a beautiful table Carolyn - very restful colors and so lovely!
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, this is a treat indeed! Brown and white transferware is a favorite for me. I don't have but a small collection, but certainly enjoy the pieces I do have. The teapot and the tureen are very special. Thank you for sharing this lovely holiday table. ~ Sarah
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful table! I love the neutral brown and white for this table. The little pinecone candles are sweet and that teapot is really gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour transferware is gorgeous so is your tablescape. Pinning!

ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteYour teapot is lovely. Do you remember my friend Sandra? Well, she contributed a teapot from her giftshop just like yours for an animal welfare fundraiser I was organizing some years ago! I've always loved it. Glad to know you've gotten another pellet stove in your kitchen. Your table is heartwarming to see.

I love brown transferware for Christmas. Pinecones are perfect with it.

Absolutely magnificent, Carolyn! It's always such a delight when I visit here! I wish I had more time for blogs, but looked like I no longer find it. You're on my list of favorites, though :)
ReplyDeleteI love brown transferware, I've been hunting for it for so many years, and finally last Autumn, when Jillayne of A Fine Seam was here in the Cotswolds, I was so lucky to find some pieces (with pheasants) while shopping with her! I hope to add some to my collection in the future, your tablescape is just my kind of setting.
Your home is a Christmas wonderland...
Hugs,
xoxo
Your Transferware is beautiful and so is your table.
ReplyDeleteSo lovely. I hopped over here from Lady Lydia's blog. PEI is so lovely. We took a family trip there many years ago when we lived in FL. I hope that we will make it back. (We have since added 3 more children who need to see lovely PEI.) :O)
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteYour table looks wonderful in the softly colored dishes... The pinecone candles are so cute too! Beautiful photos!
Hugs,
Bella
Your tablescape looks so pretty especially with the tree in the background.
ReplyDeleteYou have set a beautiful table with the brown transfer ware. I love the way you've set the table, its really gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSo Beautiful! Your blog is an oasis for me! What is the name of the pattern of the soup plates that are at each place? They are especially lovely!
ReplyDeleteChristmas Blessings!
Beautiful table!
ReplyDeleteThis is my kind of table, warm and friendly, not overdone. I have on my wish list brown and white transferware.
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, this is truly beautiful. Love that you use brown at the holidays.
