What's In Your Cottage Cupboard?

As you will see, my cupboard shelves are completely covered in a total mish~mash of all kinds of collectibles and treasures, and perhaps things that need to go!

I thought about whether or not I should share my disorganized collection!  Since I plan to (someday) clean my cupboard and organize my collections, I figured I'd share my "before" picture!

I have always loved the Old Country Roses China and have acquired some of the chintz collection as well.  Hidden in those shelves is a most beautiful set of Tiffin or Cambrigde deep green glass with gold beading fruit set that my Mother so graciously let me steal from her home many years ago.  I love glass; I love porcelain; I love crystal, etc. etc.

So, until I get around to restoring the glass doors that this cupboard once had, and get my collections in some organized manner, here are many of the things I love:

My Reality ~ My Dreams

Good Friday Morning!
And, what a beautiful day it is!
the sun is shining, the sky is blue...


A most beautiful sunrise to take in


Pretty as a picture, don't you think?


Truth be told, it's about 10 degrees (okay, maybe 15), the breeze is quite steady and strong, so it feels closer to -10 degrees. 


And I'm dreaming about this




Many of the color combinations I use in my wind chimes and chandeliers come from the seasonal canvas of my flower beds, and I long for Spring.


My two new offerings, a funky Bohemian/Gypsy accent lamp and a dazzling deep blue wind chime, bring the gorgeous colors of summer to life in the present, while I dream 


 


I have yet to master image placement!  But can you see the parallel?!

Have a wonderful weekend and stay warm!
