When my brother (Roddy) and sister-in-law (Colleen) were here visiting, we attempted to get a photo of the two cousins. But as you can see, neither Tia (my Shih Tzu) or Koda (their Beagle) were cooperating.
My brother tried to get them to face the camera. After many takes and retakes, this was the best shot we could manage. Ben Franklin seems to be taking it all in stride while Tia is having a bad hair day.This photo was taken in Smithfield, VA.
Here are three more vintage plates which I purchased from the (now defunct) Victorian Tea Room in Pennsylvania. I had talked about the Tea Room in my 7.22.08 post.
I use these plates as a soap holder in my guest bathroom. I also use vintage tea cups as water glasses in the bathroom. By displaying the china in my bathroom, I get to enjoy them on a daily basis.
Have a Creative Day, Darlene
I like to create Vintage Vignettes in my home with items that have personal meaning.
The basket, and porcelain roses, in this photo once belonged to my grandmother.
I purchased the plates from a Victorian Tea Room in Pennsylvania. I used to love taking Afternoon Tea at this place. Sadly, the owners closed their business a few years later. After they closed, they held a special sale of their china, silverware and inventory. And I was lucky enough to purchase these plates.
The framed image of an Angel is actually the admission ticket from the day that we visited the Vatican.
I received the Victorian table from my friend's father a long time ago. And I picked up the doily at an Antique Shop.
Have a Creative Day, Darlene
