Changes

Hello everyone,

We have been busy lately so I have been absent a bit but I thought I would show you a little change that it completed. Some of you may remember the pretty set of old china I bought a couple of months ago. So now I will show you where they are displayed now.

The teapot my husband gave me happens to match the dishes nicely.

I painted the cupboard that was gold before.It is Victoriana(Ralph Lauren )the same color as our newly painted woodwork. The wall behind the cupboard is also new.

I bought this guy at Winners recently to go on top of the cupboard.

We painted the new bookcases in the background and I enjoyed putting our books in them but they do need some tweaking yet. Next week I will show you a little more of what we have done. My husband said tonight that I seem to thrive on change! That was a compliment- wasn't it sweetie???

Tomorrow is going to be another nice warm day and I am going to be in the garden !!!

I am joining in with Cindy at My Romantic Home for Show and Tell Friday again this week.

I hope you all have a great weekend,

Carolyn

Mosaic Monday

I hope you all had a good weekend and are eager to start into a whole new week! Here it has been cooler lately then I would like but the garden is still advancing, soon it will be bursting with color.

So since my garden is still in the not so pretty phase I am sharing a wee bit more southern beauty. The mosaic above is made from photos I took at Middleton Place and Magnolia Plantation and Gardens,two beautiful places to visit just outside the city of Charleston South Carolina.

The mosaic above was taken in the Charleston garden that Made me think of the Secret Garden movie. You can click on to enlarge if you are interested. It is a beautiful garden but my photos don't really do it justice.

After the house and garden tour there was a lovely lunch served on this beautiful veranda. The members of the garden club made the lovely bouquets and lunch. It was an afternoon of delights for me!

We are having carpenters for a couple of days and I have a few things going on so I will be gone from my blog for a few days again but hopefully by the end of the week I can show you some of the changes.

Thank you Mary for hosting Mosaic Monday again at Little Red House.

Hope you have a great week,

Carolyn
