Egg Cups



I love egg cups.  I only have a few of them.  




I hope to find some more.  They are such a sweet and gentle way to start
the day.




I know that there are new ones, but I think the vintage ones are
the sweetest of all.  

The snow is starting to fall here.  We may actually be getting the big
snowfall they predicted for today.  I hope we get snowed in so that I can
read blogs all day!


 Bentley ~ Momma will have to shovel a path for you!


Hugs,

Romancing the Thanksgiving Table


If you long to set your Thanksgiving table in a very romantic, shabby chic
style, then head to your local thrift, consignment and antique shops.



Your will find the most charming of platters and pitchers.



Dessert plates and little sauce dishes.



Sweet and stylish stemware of all sizes and shapes.



Amazingly pretty but inexpensive silver serving pieces.



And wonderful serving dishes too.  Such soft and pretty patterns that
somehow all work together ~ so don't be afraid to mix and match.

For more romantic ideas to decorate your home lets go visit ~

Vintage Needlepoint and China


There are two things I always keep my eye out for whenever I visit
antique, consignment or thrift shops and they are ...



Vintage china and vintage needlepoint.
I love the soft muted floral patterns found on vintage china
and often on needlepoint too.



I love needlepoint covering stools and for cushions.
I am often amazed at how inexpensive these pieces are because
I know how many hours were spent creating them.



I once had a friend who introduced me to needlepoint and I made
a few pieces, but then I started quilting so I never stitched any more pieces.



So now I just enjoy finding them.

I am joining Suzanne for Vintage Thingie Thursday
and


No Bentley, we are not getting a bulldog puppy. Daddy
just likes to bring up the topic from time to time.

Love,
Susan and Bentley
