The hardest thing I am finding is keeping it stocked with new and interesting items, it is a full time job just sourcing new bits and I had a little trip out this morning to my local charity shops and found some wonderful things with my favourite flowers Roses and Violets.
Lovely Violet covered sandwich plate
Wonderful Rose covered bedspreadI nearly ran out the shop with these two wonderful pictures - a 1930's embroidered garden scene and a signed water colour of miniature roses
They are just both very pretty and I would keep them but I have to be strong and stop listening the little devil on my shoulder whispering "keep them, keep them, go on you know you want to"....
That "keep them keep them" whisper is the bane of all dealers!
ReplyDeleteI love violet china too and have a whole teaset in 1920s violets- it was one time when the "keep them keep them" whisper won!
Glad it's going well,

Great finds Deb, can't wait to see them close up.
