Speaking of fluffing, Mr. Rooster lamp has just fluffed his feathers and is all ready for spring!
You know how I love my Roos. I think his shade made need a little bit of a ruffle. Wouldn't that be cute?

I'll leave you with a little Note Song ~ be blessed by this beautiful song ~
The Heart of Worship
When the music fades
All is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that's of worth
That will bless Your heart
I bring You more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what You have required
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear
- You're looking into my heart
I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus
King of endless worth
No one could express
How much You deserve
Though I'm weak and poor
All I have is Yours
Every single breath
I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus
~sung by Matt Redman

Oh, I love your rooster lamp. Such a pretty vignette!
ReplyDeleteI was beginning to worry about you!
ReplyDeleteI love the romantic story of the Blue Willow pattern...Once there was a wealthy Mandarin, who had a beautiful daughter (Koong-se). She had fallen in love with her father's humble accounting assistant (Chang), angering her father (it was inappropriate for them to marry due to their difference in social class). He dismissed the young man and built a high fence around his house to keep the lovers apart. The Mandarin was planning for his daughter to marry a powerful Duke. The Duke arrived by boat to claim his bride, bearing a box of jewels as a gift. The wedding was to take place on the day the blossom fell from the willow tree.
On the eve of the daughter's wedding to the Duke, the young accountant, disguised as a servant, slipped into the palace unnoticed. As the lovers escaped with the jewels, the alarm was raised. They ran over a bridge, chased by the Mandarin, whip in hand. They eventually escaped on the Duke's ship to the safety of a secluded island, where they lived happily for years. But one day, the Duke learned of their refuge. Hungry for revenge, he sent soldiers, who captured the lovers and put them to death. The Gods, moved by their plight, transformed the lovers into a pair of doves .

Love your rooster lamp. This is my first visit to your blog. I came via BNOTP.
ReplyDeleteDear Shelia, I love that song :o) Nice you're back and thank you for sharing your lovely transferware with us. Yes, I do notice those old movies too, lol. I will keep a look-out for more of these pieces, if that is ok with you :o)
ReplyDeleteGod bless you, sweet friend
A mysterious quest....I wonder what you could be up to????
ReplyDeleteLove your red transferware. I used to collect pink willow for the longest time. I eventually sold it all and switch to red and blue transferware in the Johnson Bros Britain Castles pattern.
Hugs,
Penny

ReplyDeleteWhat pretty dishes. So cheery. I'm loving your rooster lamp so much, too.
ReplyDeleteHi Shelia, I wrote a comment a bit ago and It didn't go through. A server disconnect. It happens to me now and then.
ReplyDeleteYour sun room looks wonderful with the rooster and the red 'willow' dishes. My dtr. has those dishes in her breakfast room. I love them too. Hers are vintage from her MIL. It all looks so warm and inviting.
My stitches came out today and I am beginning to feel so much better. Hooray!
Happy days to you my dear blogging friend.
Love, Jeanne
