It is time to say thank you to Kathleen at Faded Charm for hosting

Hasn't it been fun?


As I pull out collected finds to bring to the sale
 at Paula's home on Saturday...
...I am not surprised at all the white treasures I have amassed.


...and strange things too!


It has been lovely to be able to visit and share with
 so many like minded friends!





  So...this little bouquet of Lily of the Valley is for you Kathleen!
...and for all our blogging friends who participate and share their
 White Wednesday Posts!
Thank you!


To see more participants in White Wednesday...
She is also hosting a celebratory giveaway
 that you won't want to miss!

Our sale on Saturday at Paula's charming farmhouse
 will begin at 9:00 am at

Tiny White Bells in a Vintage French Baguette Basket


The sunshine seems to be leaving us for a few days...

Here are a few reminders of the recent lovely spring weather
that we have been enjoying.





Our Lily of the Valley pictured here with a vintage
 French basket and green French canning jar.



My weekend flea plans may be a wash out.
Oh well, there is always next weekend!

Regardless of the weather...
...hope your weekend is full of fun!

Sweet Lily of the Valley





For the beauty of the earth...
for the glory of the skies,
for the love which from our birth
over and around us lies;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.

Grateful for this season of spring...
Everything is fresh and new!

A new day...
...a new beginning...
...another chance to try again!

:)

Ruffled and Lacy White Flowers



Our white iris are blooming!



Aren't these ruffled petals so beautiful?



We have a lot of romantic white flowers in our yard this spring...



It seems as if it would be the perfect place for an outdoor wedding...



I found this milk can at the sale across the street last weekend...



...and these two silver baby spoons at a yard sale...







Wait! Is that a bride I see?



...or a ghost?



I think Starla is playing hide and seek!

Hope your week is going well..
So far I've done some organizing as well as some painting and even a little crafting too!

For more participants in White Wednesday...visit Kathleen at Faded Charm!

Lily of the Valley and Favorite Flea Find



The sweetest flower of spring...
...tiny lily of the valley...



...in a white baby shoe.



This was my favorite find this weekend...

The clock face says Made in the USA...
the metal on the bottom is marked Made in Germany...

I don't know anything about it....
...but isn't it really beautiful?





...We have many lily of the valley throughout the property...
I have filled little vases to place them all over the house.







I found the seltzer bottle on the left at the church sale on Saturday...
...three is a collection!



Lots to do this week.
Trying not to set my goals too high...
...in hopes that I can reach a few!
................Thanks Zita for that great tip!

Have a good night and a great Tuesday!
:)
