I found some really pretty things thrifting recently
and thought I would put them together
for a pretty pink vignette to share.
However, the wonderful heart button ornament
was a recent gift from my dear friend Marina
- a precious tea society sister.
The pearls are a present from my paternal Grandfather
that I have treasured all my life.
I can't believe someone would let this simple
white and unbelievably beautiful Madonna go!
I like the teacup because it's girlie and pretty, but not
a precious antique - so can be used often
and even put in the dishwasher!
As always, thank you for visiting!
Have a wonderful weekend, dear friends!

A lovely and soft combination of beautiful things as only you can do it. Hope that you wear your wonderful pearls, Michele, even if you are only vacuuming the house. I'm told that they become even more beautiful with every wearing.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty finds, Michele! I love the floral pattern on the teacup and saucer. When I'm at Goodwill and see a pretty teacup I think of you.
ReplyDeleteI love the heart button ornament, Michele! The teacup is very pretty too. Have a nice wknd!

Michele, I love your pretty pink vignette. The Madonna is so lovely, I had one similar I made in ceramics in a cream color and sadly I let it go. I'd buy it back in a heart beat! Beautiful post. Visiting from Seasonal Sundays. xo
ReplyDeleteI *love* that your pearls came from your grandfather, and as a crafter my eye went straight to that button ornament! Combined with the pretty teacup, this is some terrific eye candy!
