My Favourite Property Wares In New Ebay Collections

I am so pleased to present you with my new eBay collections! I got rather excited when the eBay collections feature was released. I have a bad habit of ‘window purchasing’ on the internet exactly where I put all of my items in the basket, see the value and then close the browser swiftly for worry of emptying my bank account in a moment of madness. The eBay collections feature is the perfect location for me to retailer every thing on my wish list!

As ALL of you must know by now… I am obsessed with the brand Greengate of Copenhagen. I was so content to uncover several stores on eBay that stock a rather broad range of Greengate DK items and of  course, I had to develop my own ‘Greengate’ collection to retailer all of my favourite goods and shops offered in the uk.

This stunning, floral flask is component of the Greengate of Copenhagen range for Spring Summer 2014.

These fairly salt and pepper shakers are element of the Greengate of Copenhagen range for autumn and winter 2013 but are still accessible through stores on eBay.

When I saw this fabulous new ‘doily’ variety from Bombay Duck I got very excited indeed! The scalloped edging on the tins and the cake stand are a fabulous detail and quite distinctive for kitchen storage. These fairly tins have been added to my “In The Kitchen” eBay collection complete of pastel and pretty floral accessories and tools for the girly kitchen!

I fell in adore with these ‘Canterbury’ towels as quickly as I saw them. Of course I did two of my favourite colours in a set of towels! These stunning towels have been included in my eBay collection for ‘Pastel Bathroom Accessories‘.

I have this gorgeous cake stand from Bombay Duck included in two of my eBay collections 1 is named ‘A Pretty Vintage Tea Party’ and the other is for ‘Crockery and Tea Cups’. The vintage tea party collection is for decorations and all factors that would seem at a tea party, not just crockery so I had to add the crockery board! (Obviously)

Isn’t this bedding fabulous? I really like how it’s a best blend of bold prints and subtle floral patterns in the one particular set. I truly adore everything in this bedroom, like the bedside table, the console table and the flooring. I’ll just take the whole area to go! This lovely bedding was added to my ‘English Cottage bedroom’ collection for all factors related to a stunning nation cottage bedroom.

I had to include some far more stunning images of the recent Greengate collections accessible from Nation Touches that you can locate via my eBay collections you can view all my new eBay collections and stick to them right here.Have you guys tried this function out however?

Napkin Rings for Pink Saturday 9/25/2010

Happy Pink Saturday. Click the icon below to be taken to Beverly's other participants.

*

I've collected napkin rings for 25 years at least. I simply like the look of them all gathered in a bowl for visual effect or as I like to call it eye candy since I'm a very visual person anyway. So after hunting in the garage attic for our garage sale in mid June Love Bunny found them and brought them down to sell. I held them back to perhaps put them on eBay or my selling blog La Maison Rose. I truly cannot abide Mr. LB selling them for 50¢ for dozens of them like he did my other thing—pillows and shabby chic storage boxes. Does this mean I have "separation" issues?!

I have rabbits, teddy bears, roses, Christmas, fabric ones, rooster, some purchased in Ireland, simple wooden ones, silver, masks, a few plain ones, some seashell ones and many that just touched my heart at that particular time.

Show and Tell Sunday "Collections"

Soooooo, I'm sitting here thinking I've forgotten to do something and at 8:30 at night it hits me....Show and Tell Sunday! I'm bored with Love Bunny still in San Diego and not hearing another human voice except for the infrequent phone calls from him and about to go stir crazy with no human being to chatter to..........*Sigh*............ So here we are taking photos of my favorite collection - outside of ROSES, I mean! Now, I'm scurrying around taking pictures at night and hurrying to post them in time for tomorrow. Let's begin......

This is my absolutely favorite pitcher. I actually gasped when I opened the box about 8 years ago. Even hubs said it was beautiful when I showed him that night. I bought it on ebay. Majolica. Gorgeous!!

Sorry, but I ain't takin' the flowers outta the pitchers! My second favorite pitcher.

Another one with the most gorgeous faux roses you've ever seen or felt.

Not especially pretty but I had to have it. It's quite heavy and filled with liquid I can barely pour out of it so I don't use it very often anymore.

I know, I know, it's blue! But I love the delicate lines of it and the fruit design of it. Very graceful looking.

It's PINK!! What can I say?!?! Well, pink and yellow which is one of my favorite color combinations.

It's got ROSES! What else can I say about this one? Hmmmm. Love it.

The fact that it has roses on it overshadows the robins egg blue color. I love that color. Heck, I love the name: robins egg blue.

This vase came to me with flowers from my daughter. I kept it because it's purple - her favorite color. You should see her house! BUT surprise, it's plastic! Yep, but I display it and it's so light that I can lift it with liquid in it with no problem.

I simply loved the rose and the little "ribbon" on it. Pink with purple polka dots. Cutesy. ;-)

Another one with roses and a ribbon. I love this one also. Very delicate looking in person.

This is a Lenox china pitcher. Not very big at all. It was a gift to me about 20 years ago from a friend then. Very fragile and delicate also. That's fruit on it. Lovely and elegant looking.

This is kind of weird colors but the price was right at the thrift store. Plus I thought it was cute. The brown flowers are not very pretty but it looked like it needed a good home. :-) It has a good home NOW!

A Sweet Collection

I collect a lot of "things" - especially if it is "eye candy"! Hmmm, I've never collected husbands though - still on the first after 47 years. Anyway, no matter. I do have several collections. My sweet hubby, Jack, would tell you that my fabric collection tops the list, but truthfully, I've seen women with far more fabric than I have! Mine is just a drop in the hat compared by my sister-in-law's stash.

But I love beautiful pitchers. I have more than these below but these are the prettiest ones. So I thought I'd show you some of them. I decided to group them together as collections should be. I don't always follow my own advice but in this instance it does present quite a show.

This is a burgundy lacquered sofa table in my small "entry way" and that term I use loosely because you're right in my living room when you enter - the effects of downsizing, but much, much easier to clean this house than the last one which was about 3 times as large. So I put them on there as a group.

The one on the left is a MacKenzie-Childs look-alike and that's why I bought it. I love their pitchers but this one was a fraction of the cost. The little blue one, 2nd from left, is a darling blue raised fruit pitcher. The 3rd from left is a majolica one I purchased on ebay several years ago and when I received it and opened the box I actually gasped at the beauty of it. So did Jack! It is stunning in real life. The 4th from left is covered with roses; therefore, I had to have it! The 3rd from the right is just an adorable one with a polka dot bow and a rose but very unusual looking. The 2nd from right is again roses but the colors are a bit unusual but it has a graceful feminine line and so it had to be in my home! The 2nd from the right is also a very unusual one because of the top part which is flowers but the bottom almost looks like a basket weave and the handle reminds me of a twisted rope. The vase on the right is an unusual color of green - almost lime - but it is also lovely and had to be in my home also.

So enjoy the close ups below that I've put on here for you to see.

The little "boxes" are another thing I love to collect. Those I got at Macy's, which is my favorite store in the world.

The little bowl on the left matches the pitcher so I just filled it with faux grass and added roses to it. I'm a rosy kinda chick!! Hah......
