Tuesday tea

Already Tuesday time again, where does the time go? Halloween in two days-wow. I've been busy painting up a storm with my Annie Sloan chalk paint and Miss Mustard Seed Milk paint. Give you a little peek of one item that I have been working on and messed up.

This is my Canada table that I painted the other day and needed to be distressed, not as easy as it should be, my red is running into the white, like washing clothes.
Well enough of that it's tea time, welcome come in and have a seat, got anew set of dishes for eith at suction the other night and they are gorgeous. Love roses, who doesn't


Aren't they pretty, having tea in our family room. This is an old two drawer table with leaves that I painted. Table cloth my grandmother made when she was a young bride. It was tice as big and she cut it gown, have no idea what she did with the other half, probably through it out, or maybe unwound it and reused it. It is so delicate.

The set is Limoges, not old as it is dishwasher safe, but then we have had a dishwasher all the time we have been married.which is 43 years and I'm old, so I'm told....


When we are waiting for the tea to steep, have a macaroon and check out the new tea time.
This writing is different than the tea cup.

Today has been pretty exciting, I signed my contract to be an Annie Sloan stockist, go for training, November 20, 21st and then will get my paint hopefully the first of December. I am so excited about it.
I am already a Miss MustardSeed Milk Paint retailer, been a lot of work to get here, but something tells me the okra is just beginning.
Thanks for joining me today and come again,...
