Tuesday’s Display Chain

I jumped on board and thought I’d do Misi’s display chain this week…http://1890gablehousemusings.blogspot.com/
I pretty much never have my thoughts together enough to join but I do have this one I can join in on.
Lions/Lambs…well, I have the Lambs (sheep)….no Lions, just kitties.

But after looking at several blogs out there I don’t compare
(How about that Robin???  http://thecrankycrow.blogspot.com/
I don’t think anyone can beat your collection!)

Little gathering in the pie safe
 

Some extras that I pulled out for the photo shoot…
they are packed away again now

  One of my favorite Sheep pictures in the den

On the shelf of the old cupboard in the dining room

And of course my beautiful sheep from Teresa
Teresa’s Primitive Treasures
 

Towel

 

 

Another favorite I had made by Maurine

I made these last year to sell

I bought this last year from Brenda

My Sheep mat that I sell and my adorable sheep from my friend Linda in PA

Do you put off buying things you really need but buy things you don’t? 
I do that quite often but last week I bough some sheets for our bed…sorely needed too –
Got lots of them but the ends don’t want to stay on – well maybe you know how that is – you keep putting it off –
sheets aren’t cheap!
We went to Sam’s Club and I found these gorgeous 450 count Aqua Blue sheets…
they feel like Silk and they’re mine!
Can’t get the color just right with a photo but it’s close!
It’s like a cross between Robins Egg Blue and Aqua…a very Colonial Blue

A few weeks ago Kendra from Stone House Primitives
hosted a ‘Towel’ swap that I got in on
http://thestonehouseprims.blogspot.com/

I received a beautiful gift from Carol my swap partner over at
http://buttermilkcreekfarm.blogspot.com/

I couldn’t believe what she sent along with the beautiful towel.
 

Included were some hand made eggs by Carol and this
beautifully scented 1890 candle made by Misi at
1890gablehousemusings.blogspot.com/ 

And this adorable MOUSE
I can’t stress enough the beautiful workmanship Carol
puts into her pieces. The detail on Miss Maggie Sue is beyond words
THANK YOU SO MUCH CAROL
 

I put my adorable eggs in a bowl with some Bunnies

And a big THANK YOU Kendra for hosting this for us.
It was so much fun.
