Blue Monday

Welcome to blue Monday! Thank you smiling Sally for hosting this fun event! I have a few blue items to share with you today.
My grandmother collected roseville pottery. While she was still living, she let family members choose the sets they liked best. Many years ago, I chose blue!!! I still love it. The first vase featuring pink and yellow foxgloves is my favorite! The zephyr lilly set sits in my basement where blue is a prominent color.



Lastly, I could not resist photographing my daughters favorite nail polish color! It is vibrant, just like her! Happy blue Monday!!! Be sure to stop by smiling sallys blog and check others participating in Blue Monday. Just click on the blue bird!

ooh,I love your pottery, and that it was given to you by your grandmother makes it all that more special. I remember when my daughter went through the blue nail polish faze. Gotta love that. Of course blue has always been a favorite of mine. I always love visiting your blog.

Hello and Happy Blue Monday. Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving such a sweet comment. I lived in Kansas in the 50's and we used to get alot of snow. Lovely Roseville! I looked at your previous posts and I adore that tulip vase. Just stunning! So scary that a racoon came in through the cat door. I have a cat door and a big dog door for Molly. Scary thought. See ya next week!

Bless You, Shirl
