Pink Transferware

Hello people on dry land

I am in the mood to clean house, meaning dump a bunch of stuff I am saving in case someone needs it ! I am notorious  for saving things in case a friend needs this or that for a project.
I have 3 rooms in my house packed with STUFF for projects, so in a couple weeks it's leaving this house. It will take me that long to clean out drawers and chest of drawers full of paper ephemera and paper scraps like old calendars old books old greeting cards old pictures I have torn out of magazines etc etc
Do you now what I mean ? can you comprehend what i'm talking about? Well anyway that is my plan today.

In mean time I am thinking I will keep all my odd and ends and sets of transferwear  dishes that I dearly love. Just cleaning out paper clutter and old jars which I threw some already in trash last week.I'm sure I'll find more



 This Pink Charlotte transferwear plate is a favorite pattern, I have it in lavender/purple and blue and this pink.
I don't have teapots in this pattern except for a little small square blue one it's like one cup size in the Charlotte pattern which this is.






I am really feeling sorry for a friend who lives in Clarksvile Missouri who's house is surrounded by water and supposedly buy tomorrow evening it will be in his first floor his entire basement is full , he can'e even get within one block to his house. His home is a 1845 beautiful brick house full of authentic period furniture, baby grand piano beautiful marble fireplaces on and on. Richard Cottrell's /Elgin House
It's all up and down the Missouri River towns

Here is the Charlotte pattern emblem on my plates





ps I painted my front steps today and hoping it will dry before rain tomorrow.


 Will  have to visit Pink Saturday for sure this week

Pink Peonies Blooms


The wet spring has been perfect for my peonies this year. I have more large blooms than ever before.
I didn't even realize I had pink ones. Just in time for Pink Saturday





I am taking this pretty bouquet to someone this morning. I already have it packed in a travel box.



This one is sitting on my work table in the studio which i'm sure you can tell by the mess around it  or should I say all the creativity around it LOL




Just beautiful if I say so myself. I hope everyone has some in their yards. This is my second favorite first is my Hydrangeas. Do you love peonies also?





I'm going to post these on Beverly's Pink Saturday
