I hope you are enjoying a beautiful sunny week as
we are here.
Today I am featuring some of my transferware
collection . As many of you know I can't seem
to resist it in any color.
Family room china cupboard displays my
brown and white collection.
Red and white has been my main collection and is
always on display in the dining area of our kitchen.
These are on display in our library now.
I love to use them in tablescapes.
A collection of brown and white in our family room.
Some of my collection is very old and others are new.
Soft and pretty.
Black and white transferware.
Now for the good news Nancy at Nancy's Daily Dish has kindly offered a $50.
gift card to be used in her online shop where she has the most amazing
collection of beautiful transferware I have ever seen. Nancy also has a beautiful
online jewelry shop for you to check out.

online shop just use the code AIKENHOUSE and you will get a 15%

Sorry for the strange way the photos went on today ~ something to do
with copy and paste that I can't center them.
Thank you for visiting,
Carolyn
You have a beautiful collection of transferware, Carolyn! You always display it so beautifully, too. I really love the color in the third picture down. I'd love to find some plates in that color to hang around a mirror in our master bedroom.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this for a wedding gift I have coming up!
ReplyDeleteI never knew that transferware came in so many colors til I started reading your blog a few years ago. Just lovely. Please enter my name in your drawing.
ReplyDeleteI have been very, very slowly finding pieces of transferware. Your collection is outstanding! Thank you for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOh, she does have a lovely shop. Thank you for the opportunity to win a gift card.
ReplyDeleteYour collection is just so pretty!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful collections you have! Thank you for the opportunity to win a gift card.
ReplyDeleteI love the Daily Dish, and have brown, blue, and red transferware as well as some pieces that just tell a story!
ReplyDeleteJulie
I love it all. Brown is just so hard to find around here. I would like to start a collection of it. You always do a beautiful job of displaying it perfectly. I'll check out her shop. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful china and the photos are so bright. Love them all.
ReplyDeleteOh my - your collection is beautiful! I love transferware as well, but have never collected -- only admired. Yours is always so tastefully displayed. I'll have to check out Nancy's blog too!
ReplyDeleteCiao, complimenti ! Partecipo dall'Italia
ReplyDeleteMarinella
How beautiful your collections are! I love transferware--especially the red, but in the last couple of years I have found a new joy in other colors...
ReplyDeleteYour collection is beautiful! I find transferware so delightful and elegant! ;)
ReplyDeleteLuAnn
You have such a beautiful collection of transferware, Carolyn. All those pieces are so very charming. I think that is what lures me to it; the charm and feel of yesteryear. Enjoy this beautiful day!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Hi Carolyn ....Wonderful post as always ...I too love transfer ware ...my Husband and I in the 1970's really had no money but there was a sale at a shop in England , where I come from, that was closing down and there were the most wonderful blue and white transfer dishes ..with English churches on ...we bought some every week till they finally closed ..still have them today ...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the time and care you take in posting wonderful inspirational photos and words to lift our day ...Your friend Janet of Maisonvogue
Your collections are splendid. I have about four or five sets myself now. Nancy's garage is quite the spot in its own right. Olive
ReplyDeleteI have collected blue and white transfer ware for years. I always enjoy your posts featuring your collection. Lovely home and gardens!
ReplyDeleteOh Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteI do love your collection of gorgeous transferware! So spectacular! I have started a collection of Mason's Vista and Friendly Village but you have some truly beautiful pieces and such a variety. I especially like your blue and white teapot. I simply can't believe Nancy's garage! Wow! That is amazing! Best of luck to all of the participants in Nancy's Gift Card giveaway! Thank you for sharing such beauty. Have
a wonderful week. Karen
You have an impressive collection of transferware, Carolyn. I`m especially fond of the red and blue.
ReplyDeleteI`ll be sure to pop over to your friend`s blog.

ReplyDeleteI like the black and white. Very pretty and unique, not a color I would think of. I so love blue, I forget about the other colors. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank You!
I visited her blog the other day, truly a treat to have someone come out on top after such diversity in their lives. Her collection along with yours is incredible, I have a few pieces form her and would love, love, love more... fondly ~lynne~
ReplyDeleteSplendid collections! I collect blue V&B Burgenland but it's not as impressive as yours.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week:)
Your wonderful world of transferware is so charming!
ReplyDeleteGreetings

You have the most beautiful home and your gardens are a dream. I am so inspired every time I read your blog!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dishes!!! I love all the colors that you have. I am getting my first set of them in a few weeks (red). I am so excited!!!
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, Your transferware is all so beautiful! What a lovely home you have. Thank you so much for having this giveaway!! ~ Jamie
ReplyDeleteI'm loving transferware MORE and more as I see it on your blog! My mom used to collect the blues. I myself, love the reds and now I think I may start looking for some pieces when I go antiquing, as am decorating more and more in my home with pops of red. Thank you for your beautiful blog! Love it.
ReplyDeleteOh my, how beautiful! I have a very small collection of brown transferware, along with a few pieces of black, blue, red & mulberry. Mine pales in comparison, but what a wonderful gesture - thank you Nancy's Daily Dish & Carolyn for the opportunity!
ReplyDeletePick me, pick me!
ReplyDeleteOh I love transferware and your collection is amazing.
You have such a gorgeous collection! I'm breathless over the Christmastime black! Thank you for sharing such loveliness, and the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteQUE PRECIOSIDAD DE FOTOS!!!

Beautiful collections, Carolyn, and you have lovely spaces to display the pieces you have. Thanks for sharing details of your collection. I'm a fan of Nancy's dish shop and have shopped with her through the years. Just received a piece in the mail this past week. Makes me happy to just look at her pages of inventory. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou have beautiful dishes! I just love the transfer ware. Nancy has an amazing collection. I'm off now to look at her online store!
ReplyDeleteDeanna

I collect blue and white and could always use another piece! (My husband thinks I have enough though!)
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! Love your gardens and transferware.
ReplyDeleteI would like to start a red transferware collection...the red ones are my favorite, they are very hard to find around here..
ReplyDeleteSuch a stunning collection and variety of transferware! I thought that the two colors I have started collecting would be enough (but I really love the purple!). However, you may have changed my mind with your very artfully arranged displays! I enjoyed your post!
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, Your collections are just beautiful! Every time I visit your blog I am just blow away by your gardens, your transferware and your beautiful way of display. You are so talented and so blessed to have such a lovely home and gardens. Thank you for always sharing these with your readers.
ReplyDeleteThank you too for the lovely post and feature!
Nancy (not an entry of course, just wanted to say thank you!!!)
I love your beautiful home and gardens - what I can only dream of. Thanks for the blog!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing collection of transferware. I have mostly the blue, but would love to add more to my small reds.
ReplyDeleteI am just starting to collect red transferware and love it! Would love to win the giveaway.

You have a beautiful blog. Thank you so much for all your hard work. It feeds my life long love of china and gets me to day dreaming. Thanks again.

ReplyDeleteI would love to win! I love transferware, especially the red. However, that lavender makes my heart flutter!
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat, Carolyn, to see transfer ware in so many colors! I search out thrift shops and antique stores constantly here in TN, but I rarely find a piece. Nancy's Shop looks fabulous! Thank you for all the beauty you share with us. Kay Moser
ReplyDeleteOh Carolyn, how I LOVE transferware. All of your collections are so beautiful but I think I'm most partial to the reddish pink transferware.
ReplyDeletePlease, please, please put my name into the hat! Thanks! Susan
Hi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteYour collections are beautiful! I love transferware...ok...I confess, I am a china aholic :) I just can't pass up a pretty piece of China. To me they are like beautiful flowers.

When I see blue and white transferware, my heart starts beating faster:) I would like to spend a whole day in this Nancy's garage and enjoy every piece:)
ReplyDeleteGood Morning, Carolyn!
ReplyDeleteI think this is the first time I've seen the black and white Christmas photo. Very pretty.

I love the black transfer ware and rarely see it anywhere. I wish my garage looked like that with all those dishes at my disposal!

Love it, love it, love it!! So pretty & delicate!! Please put my name in the "pot"!!
ReplyDeleteYour beautiful home is a "transferware wonderland"! I have Blue Willow for everyday and Spode Winter's Eve for Christmas. And above my loveseat, I have a display of brown and white plates and platter. Would love to win your giveaway to buy more!
ReplyDeleteCarolyn your collection is truly amazing and would love a chance t o win this great giveaway. I want to start collecting transferware for our new home, wish me luck!!!
ReplyDeleteCynthia
What a beautiful collection. Where do you store all of your transfer ware. Love all your displays. Please enter me in your give away.
ReplyDeleteLove the B&W Christmas display paired with silver & mercury glass! Stunning!
ReplyDeleteI am in sooooo much trouble now! I shouldn't have looked at Miss Nancy's site because I too love transfer ware and with just a few clicks I found way too many pieces that I think I can't live without. Of course, my husband would readily disagree. I think my love of these designs began with my grandmother's Blue Willow china, which my sister snagged unfortunately. I have my own set now and have added other blue/white sets over the years. I only have a few pieces of the other colors, but after seeing all your pieces and discovering Miss Nancy's site, I get the feeling that I might be adding more than one or two to my collection. Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI too am a fan of The Daily Dish, and have bought pieces from Nancy before. I have had my eye on a Jenny Lind piece to add to my collection. Thank you for your inspiring site, your photos are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteGoodness, Carolyn, you have SO many beautiful collections! I must admit that I *gasped* when I saw Nancy's garage, though!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Audrey
All of your collections are so lovely... I collect any blue & white I can found.. has become an obsession! ;)<3
ReplyDeleteCarolyn,
ReplyDeleteYour collections are beautiful! I can't decide which I like the best. Happy Spring!

ReplyDeletePenny
Red and white transferware is my absolute favorite. I have quite a few pieces but nothing compared to yours. If I won this gift, I'd definitely try to get one of the pretty platters that Nancy sells. I don't have one of those. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you to you and Nancy both for this generous chance.
I'm just starting my collection.. One piece, but have hubby on the look out as we go saling..smile.. This would be perfect to win. Warm Blessings! Amy
