The ones above are mostly Austrian, while these pretty white ones are German.
" Give us this day Our daily Bread" Hangs in our bedroom. Love it !!
I found this little tea set for $15 years ago. Score !!! And I already had the little plate. These are on my Bathroom vanity. I Love wild roses !! :)
I also love pretty violets !! A few of these are Nippon, from Japan. I have an extensive collection of Nippon which I will show one day. They are very sweet with their creamy white centers and pastel rims. The two on the right are the Nippon's.
I would have loved to show it all, but there were a few other things I wanted to share this week too. Firstly this Pretty journal. I Love, Love, Love the colors. :) I painted tiny little forget me nots to match the prints. :)
I made a few more nest baskets for Etsy. I sold most of them, but have two left. :) Cute !!!! :)
This was my trash to treasure project for the week. I found two vintage spoon racks at the thrift store and painted them to display vintage hankies on. The one with the roses is for ebay, and the other one is for me. I have several of these hanging about the house and just love them !! Mine were all full, so I needed another one. Look, I can buy a few more hankies now !! hee hee !!
And finally, I must share what I won in blogland. A sweet lady named Kelley at Tea Cup Mosaics made this AWESOMELY sweet birdhouse and I WON it !! Can you believe that ??? This is SO terribly sweet !! I LOVE IT !!!! I owe her a long thank you note, and a virtual HUG as this is the nicest thing and I am so incredibly Blessed to own some of her amazing artwork, you have no idea !! Thank You, Thank You Kelley !!! Please go by and check out her amazing artwork. I totally admire and love Mosaic work. It is such a beautiful Art Form and she is top notch at it. :)
Well, thats it for now. :) Hope you all are having a Blessed Holiday weekend. :)Hugs,
Rhea

I love what you did with the spoon racks! We have several holding spoons, but I think the spoons are going in a box and the hankies are getting their turn. Thanks for sharing your beautiful things!

I'm a big fan of rose pattern plates but those sweet violets really speak to me, something about the calming color.

Adored it all Rhea. I too am a birdhouse collector and a bone china collector. I felt right at home reading your blog. I loved it all, especially the Trash to Treasure. I saw that in a magazine awhile back and haven't made one. Yours came out gorgeous. AND THAT JOURNAL! 2DIE4. I saw it on Etsy yesterday. It's probably gone by now!

That spice rack with hankies!!!!! Wow! Was that your idea?
Your china collections are just wonderful.
Beautiful!
What a beatiful china, I love the roses on it because I collected it myself but the violets are gorgeous too.
And the hankie is beautiful also, I think everything looks nice.

Wow, your vintage roses china collection is exquisite and the mosaic birdhouse you won is adorable! I love your idea for the spoon racks to display vintage hankies on. I have a collection of vintage hankies with tatted lace edgings on them and that would be a beautiful way to display them. What a wonderful idea.

Hi lovely Rhea! All so beautiful, just like everything you do! Great ideas too!
Voilet china is beautiful and your painting on the journals is a perfect addition.
Hankies will really be able to steal the show though now that you have them out on display, what a perfect use for that spoon cabinet.
Such a beautiful post - I love what you have done with those spoon racks - so clever!
Your china collection is gorgeous! I love your hankie holder too!
