PATRIOTIC 4TH OF JULY TABLESETTING

 Today I thought it would be fun

to do a patriotic table setting

for the 4th of July which is

when we celebrate Independence 

Day in the USA:

This vintage English Ellgreave teapot

has very soft colors:

This teapot was a 1976 Sadler

Bi-Centennial commemorative.

We were able to attend those

activities in Yorktown, Virginia.

My transferware teapot, cream

 and sugar and

a few other pieces are USA Homer

and Laughlin historic George

Washington pieces.

I found the damask burgundy red fabric

a while back.  It was vintage, never

used and enough to easily make a

tablecloth.

It is very hot where we live and

might just be where you live too.

Happy Independence Day!

EVERY LEGAL VOTE SHOULD COUNT

We are running behind in our decorating this

Christmas because we have been spending a

great deal of time in prayer for our nation.

Like others, we have noticed so many irregularities

and questionable things in the voting establishments 

of our country and we have joined thousands in

praying about the election results.  We are calling

for a revote on paper ballots in every state

where signatures need to be verified and

identification needs to be required.  We do

not believe in the integrity of Dominion

voting machines.  We believe every legal

vote should count and every illegal vote

should not!

Luke 12:2  "For there is nothing covered that will

not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.

RESET AMERICA 2020!!!

4th of JULY PATRIOTIC TRANSFERWARE

Today I am sharing some Homer Laughlin

 "George Washington" inspired transferware

 I found about a year ago.

  It was made in the USA too

I have mixed it with other

red transferware pieces:

I had seen one of these teapots a few years ago in Colorado but it had a broken lid

 poorly glued back together.  Patience is only occasionally  availed to me but eventually

 as I waited I found a perfect one in Denver, Colorado.

I love these sweet George and Martha bookends:

I want to wish everyone (here in the USA) a Happy 4th of July!

I am one of many who are so sad to see the values of our great country being dissolved every day
 little by little. 

 May God restore

America is my prayer.

Prayer and God have been removed from

everything possible.  It is very sad.

God Bless America

While the storm clouds gather far across the sea,

Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free.

Let us all be grateful for a land so fair,

As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer:

God bless America, land that I love,

Stand beside her and guide her

Through the night with a light from above.

From the mountains, to the prairies,

To the oceans white with foam,

God bless America,

My home sweet home.

This was another vintage item I found -

 a little oval of Martha Washington:
