I love the edges, they are so dainty and sweet If you read my blog you know how much I love pink roses.



Each one is so different.




I wish I had a whole set of these.

Really I would love a set of each one. Can you imagine how beautiful a table would look with this pattern .









Hope you all have a beautiful pink Saturday.

Rusty Red Scales

I am joining Show and Tell Friday at My Romantic Home.
Our good friends went to Round Top and brought back these wonderful old, rusty, worn scales.

They are perfect for my kitchen, red.


I have them sitting on chest I got from my grandmother's back porch. My grandmother had the perfect shabby chic, cottage furniture.


I know they have a story. What store were they in?




Now they have a new story and it begins at Our Cottage Nest

Burlap and Roses

I found this cute little burlap bag a Canton a couple of months ago and I love it.


It is great for putting my roses in and bringing them in from the garden.


It has a cute little doily.








It is the perfect burlap bag.

White Wednesday

I am joining Faded Charm's White Wednesday.
I am sharing my shabby window box all dressed up for spring.

I bought this heavy metal piece at a garage sale several years ago and really did not know what I was going to do with it.As luck would have it, my guy likes to weld and he put together this window box.













I love driving up to my cottage nest and seeing my shabby white window box.





Happy White Wednesday!

Blue Bird












A new nest at our cottage.

We always enjoy watching this little blue bird, she is such a good little mother.


You can hear her babies. I wish I could see them. We have had blues birds in this little bird house for several years.

Bottle Tree

A colorful bottle tree. I remember when I saw bottle trees and thought they were so tacky. Now I love them. I want one!




I love all the bright colors. I wonder where they found such colorful bottles?











All sizes and shapes.





I am collecting bottles for a bottle tree at Our Cottage Nest.
