The quiet days of winter...
days spent curled up
with magazines...
in this pretty picture
from Tea Time Magazine...
from Tea Time Magazine...
the milk-glass
just looked so fresh and springy
to me on a dreary day...
it started a mild obsession...
I made a trip to a local charity shop
a few days later
and found this pretty piece...
I am smitten
with my new bright white vase,
it's so cheerful...
I couldn't resist bringing these sweet guys home...
Valentines Day is coming
and I know they will take center stage...
for now
they are tucked into my china cabinet...
I have a thing for mirrors with candles,
so romantic...
so I picked this one up,
it will fit right into a little nook
in my sitting room...
I'll share it's make-over soon...
a perfect shopping day
ends with Roses...
I found these for a steal!
seven dollars a dozen...

I used some dried Hydrangea
for my
glass menagerie knock-off...
I do think for a true menagerie,
I will need at least a few more pieces :-)
I Love it when You stop by...

I love that pretty vase. I have a collection of milkglass,you have inspired me to bring some out!
Your sweet little cupids are adorable fluttering amid your beautiful china! You will have a wonderful milk glass collection in no time! Perfect for spring. xx
gorgeous, and that picture would have sent me to the thrift store too...and you are so right, a perfect shopping day DOES end with roses coming home with you.
Those little angels are just adorable too.
So very beautiful Bella! Have a wonderful week. Blessings, Martha

Hi Bella, I love your new milk-glass vase! So beautiful filled with the roses and dried hydrangeas! The mirror with the candle is also a wonderful find. I have exactly the same mirror, but there is no candle holder attached to it. Since our move it is still somewhere in the garage. I really should get it out and display it, again. Wishing you that you find some more white milk-glass pieces to complete your menagerie soon and thanks for another beautiful post! Have a nice day!

Everything is so romantic. I love the roses, the vase and the beautiful cherubs. The mirror is wonderful and with the candle it will be fairy!

I love Milkglass too--it has such an old fashioned appeal. Your roses were a deal!
Everything looks so beautiful! What sweet cherubs! Just wondering...are those RS Prussia teacups?? They are gorgeous!
I wonder who ended up with all my mother's milk glass?
Your menagerie is lovely.

This is so beautiful Bella. That vase is lovely. In fact I just picked one at my local thrift shop this weekend. And the cherubs are adorable. Have a great rest of the week.
Oh Bella, how beautiful! I just stopped by after receiving your comment on my blog (thank you!) and discovered you. I have to go out in a minute, but I have bookmarked your page, and am definitely making tea and looking through your posts later when I get home! Lovely.
Such romantic photo's Bella! Your milk glass bowl looks beautiful! Such a lucky find.
Happy weekend!

Oh I do love Milk Glass, Bella, and your new vase is beautiful! I hope you find other pieces, too. (My mother had the Salt & Pepper shakers featured in that photo... she passed them on to my daughter one Christmas as she, too, loves keeping things like that in the family.) I love your bouquet of roses and hydrangea... it's just as lovely as the magazine!
Bella, your cupids are darling and I am smitten with your white milk glass vase filled with pink roses! I picked up some roses today at the grocery store similar in colour to yours and I can't wait to get them into a pretty vase. I don't have a milk glass vase but I do have a pink one. *smiles* Thank you for sharing your romantic post with us at my HOME and have a lovely weekend.
Blessings,
Sandi
