Winter Blues



I love the gray/blue colour of transfer ware, common around 1900. pieces usually have beautiful delicate garden design.
 I found this vegetable dish without lid for $3 at a charity shop this week










I posted about these gorgeous  dessert dishes I found a couple of months ago, for $1 each

winter hellebores


muscari












golden wattle trees

    Beautiful transfer ware - what a bargain!
    I hope your sweet boy feels better soon.
    I'm over winter and cold days - longing to get into my garden again.
    Enjoy your weekend!

    I like the blue transfer ware and you got it so cheap.....
    The view from your back porch is again so very beautiful and what about these golden wattle trees: just magnificent, we cannot grow these outside, but I think these yellows are the very first steps to spring.
    Always love how you end with the chickens in your posts, it was nice to see your photos again.

    That picture at dawn is phenomenal! Your winter garden is just gorgeous....I have never seen such pretty trees as those golden wattle trees. I thought that you got snow there but apparently not!
