My Teapot Table Lamp Vignette
Hubby and I spent the week-end away. And while shopping at Home Goods I came upon this adorable teapot lamp! It called my name and low and behold it hopped right into my cart. Funny how those things happen. Well I love blue and white! I love teapots and we needed a new little lamp for this table.
But wait there was more! I found the pretty blue and white vase at TJ Maxx, and it was only $5!
The cute lamb came from the dollar tree and the blue and white egg was a GW find.
Over here I have added the pretty little white pitcher that I won as part of a give-away and the candle stick had been brass and I spray painted it cottage white.
Behind my birdie nest, which I've had forever is a little watercolor painting that I found at a garage sale last summer for a mere $2.
A view with the drapes. The sun is just starting to rise.
Hubby made this table for me many years ago. The top is cherry and the rest is made out of pine.
I love these pieces with my drapes. They are pretty much a perfect fit!
The picture above is of a cotswold cottage that we framed several years ago.
It's a beautiful morning. The sun has come out, things are just starting to bud around here.
And my Mom says she has some tulips and daffodils starting to poke through the ground. And I have my new teapot lamp!
I am joining Sally for Blue Monday.
And a new meme for me, Cielo at the House in the roses, for Cottage Monday.
Marty for Tabletop Tuesday.
And Rhoda for Thrifty Treasures Monday.
Go say hi to all these gals and have fun viewing all the wonderful links.
Have a Great Monday Everyone and a Great Week too!!
Cindy

I love your blue teapot lamp! And your blue curtains. All the pretty blue touches look lovely with the soft creamy walls.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Miss Cindy. Funny how those things have a mind of their own and somehow they know just which shopping cart to jump into!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Lots of memes in one. Now that's multi-tasking! :)
HUGZ! Karen

ReplyDeleteI was good!! I really was! :-D I pulled over in the parking lots for all of the pics except for the one on the road. I saw how blue the sky was and the camera was on the seat. I picked it up aimed it at the windshield and clicked. Had no clue what it would look like. :-D
ReplyDeleteIt all looks wonderful Cindy. I bet you're so ready for spring!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Dawn

Blue and white are always a favorite with me, Cindy. So of course I am going to be a little green with envy about that cute little lamp!
ReplyDeletetee hee
Your table top looks so fresh and cozy- love the egg and sweet little lamb. hugs, Sue
Very charming vignette, Cindy. You really did a great job pulling together some wonderful bargains for a beautiful look. You can't beat blue and white! Linda
ReplyDeleteabsolutely adorable Cindy..
ReplyDeleteHi. I have almost the same little lamp....just the spout is different. I have had it for several years. My Mother noticed how much I liked it while we were in a furniture and bought it for me. I love, love the curtains.
ReplyDeleteCindy dear,
ReplyDeleteI love how crisp and fresh everything looks. Very, very SPRING, HURRAH!
Your poor overworked Hubby. Don't make him build you a "Sprig." Let him have a day off!

I must visit Dollar Tree and see if I can find a cute little lamb. The vignette is lovely-everything looks great together. The teapot lamp is so pretty. Happy Blue Monday.

Oh Cindy, you know how much I love this! First of all, I love those draperies. But that little teapot lamp is soooo wonderful! All of your other blue and white finds just make this vignette perfection! I also love both of your pictures (wow! $2.00!). I've been wantig a Cotswald cottage picture, so I'm coveting yours. Loved this post! laurie
ReplyDeleteI love this; it is all so pretty. I had to laugh at the teapot lamp. I have a teapot lamp also and my Granddaughter really thought it just was not right to have a teapot and lamp combo (she is 3). Love those birds and pictures, and curtains and everything --table.....

I love your lamp! Your things do look perfect with the curtains. I'm behind since real life jumped in and turned my world upside down a bit. I'm trying to catch up when I can. I'm glad I got to see your darling pin cushions. If it required a needle and thread it is probably more than I can handle:)
ReplyDeleteOh-at this moment I'm in Alabama on my way to Florida tomorrow. It was 39 degrees and raining as we drove into the state. Maybe we don't have it so bad in the Midwest!
There's a special place in my heart for blue and white, and you've really displayed it beautifully. I've seen that little lamb in the Dollar Tree and thought it was so sweet. It looks great in your vignette!
ReplyDeletedear cindy,
