I recently found a darling bench at an antique mall and hope you can sit and enjoy the view of my garden!
I have shared my Friendship Teapot in the past and will always cherish it!
We no longer have a real dog which is one reason we now have a "real garden"....so I have a large china dog for ambiance here.
Last weekend I also found a lovely hand painted Iris Plate and a crochet doily at a nearby antique mall. I have always been drawn to ecru colored linens whereas most of my friends love the white pieces.
The lavender textile bedcover is very old as well as the Ecru Battenberg Lace Curtain piece.
I especially enjoy the older issues of Victoria Magazine and have some July issues on the bench. They celebrate summer as it should be - a slower pace with time to smell the flowers and feast on lovely visual photos.
Hello Bernideen,
ReplyDeleteas always, you share such lovely china. The tea cup is very nice and the Iris plate is a real artwork. Colorful and very detail painted. The lace is so pretty. And the little doggy with the flower basket is too cute. Thank you for sharing your wonderful tea party.
Best greetings, Johanna
Che delizia!Adoro quel dolce cagnolino!E la panchina,così romantica,da sogno!Meraviglioso anche il giardino!Rosetta
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely place you have here. I enjoyed stopping by for a visit.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed holiday weekend.
Hi Bernideen
ReplyDeleteI love the little bench you found and it appears to be in good condition too. I hear you about the dog - my real one has trampled so many of my plants and I've lost a few because of him - oh yes, lifting that back leg has done much damage too. Your ceramic dog is sweet, holding a basket of flowers.
At the antique stores, I'm always drawn to the linens and it's usually white that calls to me.
Thanks for hosting, always nice to join you and often I have to go over your post twice so I don't miss any of the details.
