It's all about the color purple/mauve

Hello everyone,

I have decided to do some different themes

on my blog for awhile.

I ahve been blogging for a long time

so even though these photos may

have been on before over the years

I am sure they are new to many of you.

So today, it is all about the color mauve/

purple.

The above photo was one that I took before

a garden tea.

The bed does not stay in the garden

terrace as it is not covered by

anything except virginia creeper.

It did make for a pretty photos hoot though.

I love the vintage quilt on the bed.

My old vintage chaise is a comfy

spot for a glass of lemonade in

summer

I love these old mauve and white

transferware pieces.

                                                                 

Our porch with the old iron bed is

a great place to relax with a book.

Who doesn't love a bouquet of lilacs.

Mauve lilacs in our garden.

I love these Maritime Rose dishes.

I may have included too many lilacs

shots but I do love them.

A delicate teapot and cup and saucer

with a  pretty mauve clematis.

This old quilt has really made the rounds in our

garden. Love the purple Jackmani superbra Clematis.

My garden hat gets trimmed with lilacs

Lilacs and transferware.

I hope you like the theme idea for

the quiet months of winter. I have

well over a hundred thousand

photos on my computer to choose

from so hopefully I don't bore

you!

Once again I want to mention that

you can subscribe to my blog if

you want to get an email when I

post. The button is on my sidebar

at the top right.

Thank you to all who have followed me

over my many years of blogging.

Take care,

Carolyn
