Mother's Day!

As a mother, I feel totally justified in adding a hearty "Amen!" to that statement. I have two of these pillows in my booth at Paply's Antiques and Gifts, but I'll bet a dime they won't last through Mother's Day weekend!


And yet another pillow perfect for Mother's Day! This one is a tapestry design and has an added garden theme. And is that not the cutest teapot you've ever seen sharing the spotlight with the pillow? It is so totally 'shabby chic!' Delicate porcelain, adorned with scrolls, dainty pink roses, and a gilt handle...it looks like Lenox, but it's not. The teapot can be found in my booth at Paply's Antiques and Gifts, too. And speaking of shabby chic...these plates are oh-so-perfect for shabby chic decor! The feminine gathering of flowers in pastel hues and the plate's scalloped edge would make a beautiful statement in a shabby chic dining room or kitchen.

Are you familiar with this Wedgwood pattern? I had never seen it, prior to purchasing it for my booth at Paply's. The pattern is called 'Medallion' and I have a variety of pieces, including dinner plates, bread and butter plates, salad plates, cereal bowls, serving pieces and more! The accent colors are gold and a dark green. Beautiful!

This Wedgwood pattern is called 'Quince.' It would make a gorgeous Thanksgiving table...or any tablesetting, for that matter. The plus to this particular pattern that it is oven-to-table. So convenient for the busy cook!

Here's wishing all you mothers in blogland a wonderful Mother's Day surrounded by family, love and laughter!

  2. Thank you, Terry Lee, for your sweet comments about my booth. Having a booth is a lot like having another house...cleaning, dusting, vacuuming! But it also gives me another 'house' to decorate, which I absolutely adore doing! Drop by on a Wednesday--that's the day I'm usually there--and I may have a special gift just for you! :>)

  3. Oo! LOVE those whites! You should play along with White Wednesday ;) I especially like that medallion pattern.
    Thank you so much for your sweet comments, yes, that is one of your flowers! I actually poked at it until I figured out how to make them and made green ones to decorate for St Patrick's! Did you see the other pic of your booth? It is in a Nifty Thrifty Tuesday post called "Let me take you shopping" in which I posted pics from all about Paply's.
    I am itching to come back in there...I met you once before several months back when showing a friend around there. You teased me that you were going to start charging for inspiration. I may have to drop in some Wednesday and visit you.
    Glad to see Ms Terry Lee popping in too! One of these days I'm going to have to track her down!

  4. I DO remember you, Jamie!!! Please come back on a Wednesday so that I can give you a big hug for posting about Paply's on your blog! As to me posting on White Wednesday...I love those posts and follow them often. But don't expect me to post one. :>) You can see how 'random' my post are on my own blog. How do you find the time?!
