Transfer...to where?

It's no secret...

we LOVE transferware...

why is it called

TRANSFERWARE?

Well, because of the transferring of the design onto the plate of course...

however...

We think it's because those plates and platters can

TRANSFER

from one room to another!!

This past weekend we were doing a little

TRANSFER

of transferware for mom...

changing things up in her living room...

and bringing in a fresh look!

and THAT

is why Transferware is really called transferware 

it TRAVELS well dahhlings ;)

Hope you all have a fantastic week...

We'd love to know what are you "transferring" from one room to another!

Broken, but not Beaten!

Yesterday while cleaning, I broke a favorite plate.

You know....

sometimes there are treasures that you don't mind that break...

but then there are those you hate to throw away!

Well...

plant them

and enjoy them for years to come

It may not grow

but it will grow on you....

and you might not mind 

a broken plate here & there!!

Happy Tuesday All!!!

A Serving of Shadows

Scoop up a heap of shadows
and put 'em on your plate

Just watch out for the holes...,

ooops! 
It's too late!

Halloween Words

Wooop Wooop!

It's Tuesday...

and time to share a fun

Halloween Decorating Tip!

 



 

 For a fun project....

take some old plates

 (we took some vintage corelle dishes)

 

 

and some vinyl lettering

to create

some great spooky words

 

 

You can hang your creations

on some old shutters

or put on a plate stand!

 

We think that these

would look great

outdoors as well as indoors...

 

do tell....

what would your sign say??

That Little Extra....

We love hanging vintage plates...

but sometimes it just needs that

little extra

bit of attention

Just a bit of detail

 from an old chain

hooked onto the plate rack

Totally makes all the difference!

Taking it to the Top

Some walls are BIG

then there are those

TALL

Walls....

Just take it to the top!

Small piece of furniture?

No Worries....

Just add

a little here

a little there!

The black toile plates compliment the picture that was the

"inspiration piece"

that started the collection around it

(or should we say above and below!)

A little mood lighting....

and of course a touch of vintage purple toile goodness

well...

you might say that, together, it all takes it

OVER the Top!!

What will you take

Over the Top today?!!
