May CupboardScape

~ A MOTHER'S LOVE ~

Is a strong one indeed!

An early doll that I have had my eye on for awhile now.
Bob knew the vendor from the store I visited near work...
he traded a sign to the dealer for me to get this gal.
Bob you are the 
BEST!!

1800's Toiletry Counting Pins.

These would be used in a ladies vanity for sewing.
~ I use them to mark my cross stitching ~

I also shopped our own store and purchased
another pair of children's shoes from one of our dealers.

Added my tin punched light for this display.

Also tucked in my umbrella.

I wanted this CupboardScape

to feature mom.

The chair my doll is sitting 

was mine as a child. 

My mom gifted it back to me.

~ mother and daughter shoes ~

I fell in love with this metal heart.

Looks can be deceiving as it is really heavy.

A Mom's heart is always giving.

I included some ivy 
as it was thought to be the plant 
of fertility.

Having this new doll reminds me of my own
mom's dolls she has.
I was drawn to this one because of her
beautiful blue eyes.
The color of my own eyes.
~ I have always been an eclectic prim collector ~

May is the month of flowers...
so hopefully we can put the real umbrellas away,
and start planting the real flowers outside
for the season.
~ more rain this week ~

Thank you for all of the well wishes 
for our Grand Opening of our Candy Jar.
It was a grand success and fun was had by all!

The grands enjoyed spending grammas money too!
I gave them each $5.00 to spend...
it would not have been fair if they got it for free...
Mikayla helped Bob bag the free popcorn we provided.
Mikey showed folks where the free soda pop was.

Did you have a nice weekend?

I cannot believe it is Monday already.
I taped the Royal Wedding and watched it yesterday morning.
Duchess Meghan was beautiful in her dress!
It was nice seeing Harry say thank you to his pa.
That was so sweet!
Did anyone else watch the wedding?

May Cu[boardScape Blessings To All!
