I was dreaming of a warm spring day today…
Blooming roses, fresh cut grass & little birds chirping about …
This vintage china has been packed away for awhile now…
it’s a beautiful french vanilla cream color with pink roses.
The little vintage tole bouquet with faded blooms was a find at the thrift store recently
and I added a mossy ribbon layer to line the shelves.
I have been feeling ready for a change in my hutch.
I usually have a set of antique green transferware displayed in here.
Here is a before~
and after
A little vintage,
a little cottage,
a little french romantic.
Mixed with vintage silver, cloche’s
some creamy whites & garden elements.
Not sure how long this will stay…
I have a couple of other china patterns I want to try out in here
and you know I am always changing things.
For now, I am loving the romantic feel of this pattern.
A couple of mercury glass ornaments are displayed as well,
love them.
So even though it’s chilly outside and my garden and roses are pretty bare~
My buffet is filled with sweet, lovely, blooming flowers!
Feathered Nest Friday
will be up Thursday evening~
Hope to see you there!

Hey lovely,
I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking of spring. I absolutely can't wait to see flowers again in our garden. Now that Christmas is over, I've had enough of the winter weather!

I know I've told you before, but you really have a talent for layering. Great idea to add the moss! It was -5 degrees in CO, today. Your reminder of Spring and warmer days is beautiful!

Simply lovely!
I have my aunt's "Mildred" pattern china, and while the pattern is quite different from your sweet little pink roses, it is very similar too.
I know, I know – – – that's an oxymoron, but TRUE!
Chari at Happy To Design says
Hi Girlfriend…
Oooh…sooo many pretties, sweet friend! I loved getting a peek at "the before" hutch! I really do have a thing for green transferware! You have some lovely pieces! But I also love your new look with the fabulous french vanilla china! What a beautiful and sweet pattern. You're right…the little rose pattern is charming! Wow…you really did create a beautiful vignette for your hutch, Courtney! I love how you used the moss on the shelves! Sooo pretty!
