Wednesday, just another day

      Howdy everyone...  I'm still sick with this yukie cold thing...  I do feel a tad better, but not a whole lot...  This is a little lady that I believe I found at a thrift store long ago... She is in Pink and Gold...  

      Can't get the right lighting...  She matches my lamps they are all in Pink with Gold as well...

      This one is on top of my t.v.   Next to the lady...  My niece who says im not her aunt anymore bought it for me...

Long story...

      A tiny vintage doily...  I just purchased some smaller vintage thread on line in hopes that I can make something with it, lol but I'm kind of nerves because it's so thin...  But like this tiny piece...  Back then they made them with the smallest of threads and needles...

            

      These are the colors that I got...  My goal is to see if I can make this one small doily with small pansies... It will be a challenge indeed, but it's good for the soul...  

  

      This large doily I need to block still but havent and put it on the t.v. Anyways...

      I love vintage as you know, I simply can't get enough...

      Shall we have tea...  I really like this Mason's Regency pattern... Fell in love with it right away...  I believe I showed you before and told you it belonged to the mans mother which I liked that idea...  Well the teapot did...

      The teacups came from a different place...   But they match perfectly...

      This is the round doily that I made to match it...

      I was really content with this doily and the way the colors came about...  I always kind of have idea in my mind but never sure if I can transfer it into what I vision...  But I believe I accomplished my vision here...  I have made this very one in other colors...

      This one was I believe last year for Autunm...

                                   http://beedoily.blogspot.com     .......

I do have a blog for my crocheting but I don't post a lot...  I was thinking to stop it and just put everything on one blog...   It might be better to maintain...

      My dear teapot...

      My other Pink Lamp, this I have two of and bought them for 4.95 each at Savers years ago... Shades and all ...  I just last year bought two new shades from  Ross, simular these have gotten spots on them...  I will just have to remove the beads and replace them on to the new shades later...

                             Pink candles... Love Pink everything... 

      Well my dear friends I think it's time for some tylenol and tea...  Have a wonderful rest of the week...  Thank you for your visits and love... Sending all my love to you...

Victoria, and I'm sick...

      Yuk, I just dis like being sick...  As  I'm sure everyone does...  I'm really not a stay in bed person so it's even harder for me...  I just can't deal with laying around...   Dr said that I'm ok just have a ugly cold that's in my head and chest...  I thought I had the makings of a sinus infection my face feels like it going to fall off or I'm going to rip it off lol.  My whole cheek area hurts but, she said to soon for antibiotics, in my opinion dumb... But ok dr.  

      But at any rate before going to the ER yea

Sterday I stopped at Safeway to get some swiss chard and a salad...  And remembered to pick up the new Victoria which always suooths my soul...  

      Even Sweetpea said ok mommie I'm ready...

      So we sat down in the bed and opened her up...

      To lovely deserts pretty White cake yum...

      I have to say I have been wanting to make home made marshmellows forever so soon as I'm feeling better guess what I will be doing...  Just that, these are peppermint ones they sounds so divine in a cup of hot cocoa...  

      I love peppermint candy canes...  I have the little round candies all the time...

      It has the recipe in the back yay...

      I love love this bed and White Tree even though I no longer celebrate the holidays...

      Pretty and very vintage...

      Vintage stockings...

       December plants and paper whites, wrapped with pretty Red ribbons...

      I forgot to check at Safeway for the bubls, last year they had a small bag for two dollars...  I will have to go back and check...

      I love this dinning area...  I love the chairs and  lace table cloth all so very pretty...  It suits me just fine...

      Christmas in the clouds sweet...

      You need to step out and get your own dear copy of Victoria...  If your a Victorian lady like me and you love vintage Victorian you will love this magazine I have been buying it for almost twenty three years now...  My daughter Victoria will be 22 in March this coming new year and I stareted reading it when I was pregnant with her...   So nard to believe the time has flown by and I will be turning 58 years old next month...   It sure does go by quickly and you pause for a moment and think where did it all go...  The kids are all grown and I have 13 grandchildren...  My uncle called me yesterday, mamas brother and he mentioned he was the last of them and in my mind I was saying gosh hes right after he's gone the older generation of my mamas will be gone.  On my dad's side Still have two aunts...  It's a funny thing and feeling...  He also told me my great grandma saved a lot of things...   He said that's where mama got it from...  lol...  I guess...   Well one day in the future all the junk will be gone and we can hopefully start a slow process of fixing...   The most important things first...

      Going to finish up my vintage crocheted hanger today...  To keep myself busy but not physically too busy...  I can crochet sitting up in bed or on the couch...  

      I'am almost done with this part so then I have to stitch it around the hanger, well I just crochet it on...  A old wooden hanger which are coming hard to find and on line they want a arm and a leg for them...  But I was fortunate recently and found a bundle for can you believe it 99cents. i was shocked and so very happy...  I have made a White one with a bit of Blue for my new bedroom at Mamas when ever I get there...  But I wanted a pink one for now...  The rest will be in Blues for later...   

Well think it's time to rest a bit...  Wishing you a most wonderful new week...  I will be back soon...

                            With love

                                   Janice,Louise...

 

Helo, I'm back

      Good morning everyone, I'm here...   I enjoyed my little break but I have also missed everyone...   I want to take this time to thank everyone for their kindness and warm thoughts it was very nice of you...

     I thought that I would share my December Royal Albert teacup with you...  It's so pretty, I purchased it from esty shop from a woman at the most lowest price she said it was messed up on the bottom but I bought it anyways...

But all it had wrong with it was just some discoloration...  So I'm very grateful for the barely money I paid...

      So lets have some tea...  I set the tea tray on the coffee table

     A tiny bouquet of tiny flower from the Garden 

     Put some pretty doilies...

     The flowers are so pretty around and in the cup...

      Pink blossoms and Red Burgundy berries holly leaves... Just pretty...

     

      Some little golden picture frames with ribbon that I found last year from the good will...  These are for one day at Mamas house...

                 ... HAPPY DECEMBER EVERYONE ...

       And for the occasion, a Swiss Apple Pie... Very simple and tasty...

      Thats all for now wishing you a lovely enchanting weekend full of love...   And may God bless you...

              

                          

     With love...     Janice
