Hope everyone is having a great weekend. The weather in East Texas is so nice, the temperature was 54 degrees today. I am loving it.

White Wednesday

I am joining Faded Charm's White Wednesday.
My sweet friend made me this vintage purse.

She used a crochet lace doily and other types of lace.

I wonder who made them? It looks like lots of work goes into making them.

She put vintage buttons on it, she is so creative.

It is the perfect Canton purse.

She gave it to me for nurse's day last week. I am a school nurse for a small rural school . I am so blessed to work with a great group of people.

Happy White Wednesday.

Happy Mother's Day

I want to wish all the mother's a very Happy Mother's Day. This is my mom. She is a fun loving person and loves to travel. She has been a huge inspiration in my life. I am so thankful she raised me with Christian values. I want her to know how special she is to me.

Happy Mother's Day

Pink Saturday

I am linking up with Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for Pink Saturday
Look what came in the mail. I love beautiful flowers. My two guys sent me these beautiful tulips for Mother's day. I have a great husband and son living at home. They spoil me. I am so blessed. I have a daughter(soon to be mother) and son-in-law, and son and daughter-in-law and precious grandson in Houston. I have a wonderful mom and had a great mother-in-law. I am so thankful.

I recently got this new pink Misty Rose bedspread at Target, it is part of their Shabby Chic Collection. I also had one before this which was more of a patch work look. I really like this one because of the soft pink color and the roses.

I have them sitting on my bed, and they look so pretty.

I would love to come home everyday and have fresh flowers sitting on my bed. I might not appreciate them as much if I did.

Hope you all have a happy Pink Saturday and Mother's Day.

White Wednesday

I am linking up with Faded Charm's White Wednesday. I had been looking for a china cabinet or hutch for months on Craig's list. To say I had been looking for a year would not be an execration. I knew what I was looking for and the price I would be willing to pay when I stumbled upon this. I had to pay $50.00. I found it in Houston less than 5 miles from my Son's house. How is that for luck?

I wish I had a before picture of it. It was a deep brown color and no glass in the doors. The imperfections are what I love about it.

I have not replaced the glass doors. I like it with the lace hanging over the doors.

It is full of things I love, teapots, my red transferware and some silver.

Pink Rose Plates

I am joining Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for Pink Saturday.
I have a collage of plates in my guest bedroom , all with pink roses.

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.

and 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
