A Cock Doodle Do!

Oh Yeah!  It's time for a Rooster Party hosted by Barb @ Bella Vista. 
I have a little corner in my kitchen they I have designated as Rooster corner. 
My newest find is this little white vintage rooster that I found while we were on vacation.
I think I paid a whopping $4 for him.

The little Rooster plaques were garage sale finds and I made the pillows and cushion a few summers ago.




That cute little apple tassel was made by the wonderful Marty @ a Stroll thru Life.  I also have another one made by the fabulous Gloria @ Happy to Be.  Aren't blogger buddies just the best!





Next to the bench a little wire and wood plaque, also a $2 garage sale find.




And my favorite rooster of all is this runner made for me by my Sweet MIL. 
She used left over scraps to quilt this lovely runner and I will always treasure it!



And my rooster apothecary jar!  Only $7 on clearance at TJ Maxx last summer.
It's filled with wooden eggs and a cute little Chicky!
And that is about it for me friends. I'm up to my eyeballs in pink and baby booties preparing for my daughter's baby shower on the 14th.  She is starting to get pretty uncomfortable.  Only about 8 weeks to go! Now go visit Barb and the other participants by clicking on the logo below.

  5. Cindy, that $4 vintage rooster looks like it was a real deal! I remember that table runner and the apothocary jar and how much I loved them the first time I saw them. So glad to see them again. You not only have great roosters -- they were all such great bargains! laurie

My sister is coming in to town today for her baby shower tomorrow.She's due in Nov. but we're having a family shower up here while she still feels like traveling.

    Golly we missed you! We could've gotten into a heck of a lot more trouble with you along! :)
    I really like your rooster corner, and the RUNNER! How special is that? I love it when we receive things like that, things really truly worth passing down because of their history.
    Very fun! Thanks for sharing! "Talk" soon! Hugs. Karen

  27. Mornin' sweet friend...

    Ohhh...I love your little white rooster! Wow...just $4 for that stately little fellow? You know, I never can find roosters (or maybe I should say...I never find roosters that inexpensive)...here you come all the way from Wisconsin to Colorado to get him! Hehe!

    Well my friend, you know that I just adore your "Rooster Corner"! I swoon everytime I see that pretty bench with those gorgeous cushions! I really do love that fabric!!! You did GOOD, Darlin'! Hmmm...trying to recall if I've ever seen that large green leaf platter? It's sooo pretty! And...I love, love, LOVE the black plate with the rooster...it just has the prettiest colors on it!!! Sooo many pretties! Love your cute chicken wire plaque! You always find the cutest things, my friend!!! Love, love, LOVE that beautiful quilted table runner that your sweet MIL made for you...you're right...it's such a treasure! I think your rooster apothecary jar looks perfect on that pretty runner!

    Well sweet lady...I know that you are busy, busy! Wished I were there to help...I would love helping with your baby shower...that's right up my alley! Hehe! Have lots of fun!!!

    Love ya,
    Chari

  36. I just love all the cock-a-doodling going around Blogland today! I have one little rooster and chicken salt and pepper shakers or I would have played along. You just don't find many around the beach, lol.

    Your table runner is gorgeous! I'm sure it will become a family heirloom.

    Sheila and I are planning a blogger get together for November. By then you'll probably want to get out of the cold and come to sunny Florida! Hint, hint. Should be a few others along with us that you know!

    Hugs
