This Beverage Hostess is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!!
I can see "Mismosas" in it now!! Or "Lemonade"!

**************************************

As most of you already know, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Mackenzie-Childs.
I have collected it since 1988, then started painting it for friends in 1991. I still collect and paint it today and never tire of it. Each piece is truly unique and sems to tell a story.
Today I am posting photos of MY FAVS! M-C has come out with some really nice products this year, and I have quite a few of them on my "wishlist". Tell me, what's on
YOUR "wishlist

And how cute are these new "Bird Tassles"?

Perfect to place anywhere in your home!

These adorable "Miniature Compotes" are the perfect vessel

to serve single servings in.

I see salads, strawberry shortcake and ice cream sundaes in these!

Oh, imagine the possibilities!

I think this new pattern will fit nicely in with my other "Taylor" pottery.

It's called "Hitchcock Field". I am not crazy about turquoise, but since

it has the black/white on it....I like it!

If you collect the Flower Market enamelware, you will want to

add a couple of these ute frames to your collection!

I mix and match the white with my CC enamelware

and the floral pattern really POPS!!

OH....and these are "MUST HAVES"!! If you entertain,

then these are a must!!! I have several of this type I have picked up

at Target, Marshalls and the like to place dips and chips in...friuts...cheeses...

and pretty much anything you can think of!

The perfect addition to your M-C collection!

This is the smaller version of the one above....too darn cute!

NOW ...ON TO THE FURNITURE!! FOLLW ME>>>>>

Cute "Pedestal Table". Perfect for your favorite plant

...perhaps an Orchid?

Love the new Courtly Check® and Stripe fabric!!

Hopefully, we'll be able to purchase yardage at some

point! Are you reading this CC?

Christmas Decor Around the House..Inside and Out!

Remington was not too happy about the Santa hat!!

I wanted to enjoy my pumpkins longer, so I decorated them for Christmas!

Chritmas around the house (still working on decor...new house...larger house to fill)

The tree in my sunroom for Tweety Bird. He loved his tree!

See how Tweety Bird untied the bow on his wreath? Shame...shame!

Tweety Bird (yes, that is his name)

My Christmas tree with Christopher Radko ornaments (42 in all) and my handpainted checked balls.

Had a busy Christmas....so I didn't have time to post. I hope ya'll had a wonderful Christmas here in Blogland! May the New Year bring you Prosperity and Good Health!

Warm Hugs,

Linda

Target Birdies on Holiday!

This morning I woke up to the tune of "How Much is That Kitty In the Window"....only to find that Fred and Ginger had danced on into the sun room and was playing the piano!! How nice it was to wake up to such lovely music!

Once, they were done playing the piano, they flew out the door and rushed right over to the bird feeder and had some breakfast. Then, they went over to the front entrance where they found my container water garden and drank and splashed in the fresh running water to their hearts delight!

Then, it was off to visit friends for the day. They first stopped off at Dusty and Musty's to see how the new babies were doing. They were just born a week ago. After hearing they were doing great, they flew on over to Maggie and Harold's place to see what they were up to.

After a long afternoon visiting friends, it was time to go back home and feed their little ones and sit on their own nest for a while.

This has certainly been a very long day, so Fred and Ginger decided to take a dip in the hot tub and relax their aching feathers, then on over to take a well desrved nap in the hammock before heading back home to the little ones.

Fred and Ginger wanted to thank Between Naps on The Porch for hosting such a lovely vacation. It was long overdue and they needed a break!!
