My “find” for this week would be a teaspoon.
I’m always on the hunt for vintage silverware, it’s so full of character and makes me think of farmhouses and family meals. It makes me think of summer, and bridal showers, and other special occasions.
But I also found the pretty white teacup at Value Village several years ago. I just loved the green and mauve design, and the slightly worn gold edges.
After I took all my photos, I sat and drank the lovely green tea and admired my garden. It’s doing ultra well this year. We’ve had a lot of rain and there’s more in the forecast.
Have I mentioned that I love lilacs?
And I love my garden.
It’s pretty maintenance free, mostly perennials, with a few annuals sprinkled here and there. Right now the anemones are blooming their hearts out.
It’s such a rush! Every day a different plant starts to flower. I can hardly keep up. It’s heavenly.
Your Lilacs are amazing! We have Lilacs all around the fence line of our property. The only thing I can’t stand is how shot a period of time they bloom for. Your shots are great and your garden is truly beautiful! Have yourself a great weekend.
Wow, what a pretty teacup, Barb, and the teaspoon,
so lovely with the tiny lilac flower …
Lovely bouquet, and your garden looks great !
Have a wonderful weekend,
Sylvia

Beautiful presentation Barb, love that shed in your backyard.
Oh, such a pretty spoon and teacup! All the still lifes are so beautifully coordinated and your garden looks so serene.
So gorgeous Barb I love your teacup….
sweet little tea cup to match your lilac blooms.
Hi Barb! You have a lovely garden! I too love lilacs and I love how you have them displayed in that white pitcher! Beautiful photography here.
Wonderful blooming colour and a beautiful cup of tea! Divine!
Beautiful photographs! I love your teacup and your peaceful garden. Lovely.
What a charming garden…I would love to join you for a spot of tea in those pretty little cups sitting in that beautiful garden.
Oh my goodness….. You live in a place I’d love to live… That garden, flowers, and oh my that adorable tea cup. If I was your neighbor, I’d stop by for a cup of tea and a chat….
Good Day,
Karla
Lovely finds this week at your place Barb! My eye landed on your old pitcher holding the lilacs…I enjoyed a visit to your beautiful flower garden!
Barb – what a perfect trio – the spoon, the cup and the lovely linen!
Your garden and garden shed are as adorable as can be! I too like old silverware – my mom has a nice collection and this reminds me to photograph it the next time I visit!
