Garage Sale Roses...

Saturday... I went out to a few more garage sales.

So,  I thought I would share with you

some of the pretties I found :-)

Roses Roses Roses

I bought these all at one sale

for three dollars!

These two rosy cups,  no saucers...

They match.. the bud is on one side

and  the bloom on the other.

I thought they had an unusual stamp..

the only word I can read is China.

Here is one of the two plates I bought,

they are Hand Painted

Prussian China

Royal  Ruddlstadt.

They were by far my favorite purchase.

When your heart pitter patters

for one dollar a piece plates

it's a good day!

Here is a close up of the beautiful roses

on the first plate...

and...  A close up of the second plate,

it has a hair line crack,

but I am not complaining...

I would love to be talented enough to paint

dreamy roses like this!

and... Here is a little oval bowl

by Homer Laughlin

with some more delicate roses.

I am going to use it in the bathroom

to hold some pretty soaps.

So all and all it was a very rosy day :-)

Today.. I am joining

Linda at Coastal Charm

for Nifty Thrifty Tuesday

Sorry..  This first one won't enlarge

I don't know why?

I was so excited when I found this group of Pink Teacups..

I knew right away I would have to share them

with the Pink Ladies

for Pink Saturday!

It's an uneven set of...

eight cups and five plates.

But what a deal at twenty dollars!

They are the Georgian pattern

by Homer Laughlin...

Don't they have a pretty bouquet?

and... one of my Pink Peonies

floated in the cup.

Flowers, flowers, everywhere...

Isn't that the best part of summer?

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

I can't wait to go to more sales in the morning!

Today I am joining...

Beverly at How Sweet The Sound

for Pink Saturday

Thanks for visiting me today,

My Favorite Place...

Today...  I thought I would share with you...

my favorite garden getaway :-)

(click to enlarge photos)

It's my wicker chair on the backside of the gazebo...

A perfect place to lounge around in the afternoon,

the sun is at my back

so it's a relaxing place to enjoy a magazine.

And pink lemonade is always a delicious treat!

I haven't got my little area all dressed up yet,

our weather has still been too cool and wet.

So... I just tossed a white cotton dish towel

 over the little table,

and grabbed a few of my favorite things.

I wanted to show you today

because my Gertrude Jekyll Roses

are right behind my chair and

 they are looking and smelling wonderful!

I brought my rusty old bird bell to my table..

just for fun.

Do you think if I ring it a team of garden fairies

may appear and do all the work for me?

I can daydream,  right?

and tucked a nest of moonstone eggs

into the birdcage...

Here are the roses,

they don't seem to mind the wet weather.

They are English Roses!

And...  just because I love these little guys,

here is an urn I planted today.

I Planted Saxifrage in the top,

which should spill out and look lovely

and... I planted some plugs of Pennyworth

at the feet.

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

Today I am joining a few fun parties...
