Evening in the Winter
Today I did some re-arranging in my living room..redid the mantle and moved a bookcase ...that's what I do in the Winter when I get bored....believe me there are things I could be doing...cleaning, baking, reading, but I think the Martha Stewart in me comes to life and I have to redo what all ready is good.....just think it would be better this way...you know" Good Thing" so bare with me I told a few pictures to share.............
this is my buffet and hutch....a buy from years ago....an older gentleman in Northport,N.S. build this very rustic furniture and at the time I lived in a log home so the product He made fit ....I purchased several pieces from him , the drawback of the low prices was you had to finish it..sanding,staining....but getting 11 pieces for $600.....I can do the sanding and finishing touches.......
re-arranging the bookcase gave me a opportunity to table scape of sorts....the small picture is of my parents on their 40th anniversary......
this little cup and sauce I picked up at Home Senses when they opened here...it is a Spode...Blue Room collection...keep looking for other pieces.
Of course you likely know by now that I like blue dishes...here is a teapot I got at Wheatons and the cup and sauce was another purchase at Home Sense
this teapot I picked up at Winners, I worked there for about a year...and the cup and sauce was a yard sale purchase.
love the glass cloche's I have about four of them in different sizes use them on pedestals plates I have ...the little cup and sauce are Old Country Rose pattern a gift from my sister Ivy.....the pitcher was a gift from a friend who took a trip to Scotland and she buy this for me .....I love it... thanks for stopping by...
Martha, you have some beautiful dishes! You were indeed fortunate to buy so many home made pieces of furniture for that price. I love shopping at Winners and wish we had a HomeSense here in town. Wheaton's is a nice store too. Have a great week. Pamela
