WHITE WEDNESDAY # 15

Dopo qualche settimana di assenza al nostro appuntamento settimanale del White Wednesday ospitato da Kathleen di Faded Charm, eccomi di nuovo pronta a condividere con voi dei piccoli angoli bianchi che hanno fatto capolino nel mio appartamento.
***
Having missed some of our last weekly WW appointments hosted by Kathleen at Faded Charm, here I am again, eager to show you some of the white accents that are eyeing at me in my aparment, like this wonderful cream crocheted bed spread which is lying on my fave armchair in my family room.YYY
Seguono in bella mostra i miei trofei portati a casa dall'ultimo mercatino dell'antiquariato dello scorso mese. Questo delizioso servizio da the non è molto vecchio ma è stato amore a prima vista dal momento che questi preziosi mughetti hanno attratto subito la mia attenzione fra tanta merce esposta enon ho potuto fare a meno di cedere alla tenzazione e portarlo a casa con me. Credetemi, trovargli un posto tale da rendergli giustizia è stata una vera impresa dato che non abbiamo più spazi liberi nel nostro appartamento e mia figlia non manca mai di farmelo notare... ma dopo tante prove e tentativi eccolo sistemato su di un curioso vassoio russo di rame avuto gratuitamente da Rose, la mia antiquaria di fiducia.

Let me make a little show off of the pretty tropheys I brought home from my visit to last month's flea market. This vintage china coffee sets is only some 40+ years old but it was indeed a coup de foudre
as the lovely lily of the valley decor immediataly caught my eye and had to yield to temptation and bring it home. Must admit that finding a proper place to display this prettie turned out to be quite a challenge as we hardly have any empty places left in our small apartment -- and to top that off whenever I bring some new lovelie home my DD never misses the opportunity to remind me how filled to the brim we are . It took me some serious thinking but finally a darling Russian vintage copper tray which I got for free from my favorite antique vendor ended up to be the perfect place to display the set and I just love the way it all looks.

Un vecchio lenzuolo con le cifre ricamate a mano è stato trasformato in un utile ma non troppo pratico copri-divano (c'è voluta una vita per stirarlo ben bene). mi piace l'effetto shabby gustaviano!

An old monogrammed bed linen has been turned into a very useful - though not so practical cover for my sofa (it took me for ever and a day to iron it). Love the shabby gustavian look.

  1. Bonjour Dear Rita,
    Oh you have found alot of treasures. The coffee set is simply beautiful - see you did find the perfect place for it. I had to laugh about that - I'm always trying to squeeze in just one more thing into my place.

    The monogrammed bed linens is gorgeous along with those white tulips. I so enjoy all my visits here, I'd love to have coffee with you!
    Happy White Wednesday to you too!

  13. Rita,

    It's all beautiful! I have also enjoyed the tea cup website that you posted where you ordered your lovely tes sets from-thanks for sharing it! The only problem is that I found dozens of sets that I'd like to have and can't decide which one to choose:).

    Blessings,

    Kim
