White Wednesday & New Display




I just showed this for the Rosette Party
at The French Cupboard,


but I just lvoe it,
so hope you do not mind me sharing it for
White Wednesday too.
(thanks for hosting White Wednesday Kathleen)

Here it is on the Victorian Purse I made some time ago.
And the purse is hanging on Ruby, my mannequin!
My very first mannequin!
I'm trying to decide what I want to do with her.
(or even if I want to name her Ruby.
It just seemed to be the name though)



I got some old music books form my Mom.
Isn't this one great?
(you can copy and use if you'd like).


And look at the date inside the cover.
1898!!!


And, here is an old shabby high chair I got.
Can anything be tooooo shabby??

I'm wondering if this one needs a paint job.


What do you think??

And here is my new helper,
announcing a Tea & Treats Special.

And here is what I am working on.
A "new" but temporary display.


On Saturday I'm setting up a table at a fund raiser tea.
So I thought I'd better set it up at the store first,
so I would be more prepared come Saturday.
This is one display and I'll also set up a sweet pink tea table.

so fun..
Thanks for coming by.
Happy Wednesday and blessings everyone.

Barbara Jean

    I love your white rosette. I'm going to have to learn how to make these pretty roses...some day...

    Your all white display is beautiful. So many goodies, and everything is so pretty. Wish I could see it all in person.
