Blue bunny Monday

It's almost Monday again and that can mean only one thing, Smiling Sally is hosting another Blue Monday party. Do click on the link here http://smilingsally.blogspot.com/ or on the sidebar to join in with all the fun & check out the blue extravaganza.

I love to decorate using blue & white pieces, a vintage Bavarian carved blanket chest sits in a recessed window bay on an upstairs landing and is a perfect place for a bunny to sit in relaxed comfort.
In the early 1990's, when we were still living in Bavaria, sewing fabric bunnies was a pastime of mine. I sold or gave away most of them but this one was too cute to let go.




The "Blackberry" plate marked GW, was purchased for centimes at a French auction and the Tokyo bowl is one of a pair produced by Tunstall, England which I bought at an Antiques Show in Winchester, Hampshire about 10 years ago.


Happy Blue Monday everyone.

    All your blues are just beautiful.The muslin bunny is so sweet. I have always loved the muslin bunnies. I don't see them as much anymore.
    Happy Blue Monday.

    You have some very pretty blues posted today. I of couse, adore your bunny. I have that sits on a rocker in my bedroom upstairs. But I am drooling over your blackberry plate. That is such a lovely pattern. Happy Blue Monday! ~ Robyn

    Very pretty.
    I used to have muslin bunnies, but they are long gone. That is so sad. I know we can't keep everything but it surely does make you wonder what we should be keeping. Your bunny makes me think I should have kept mine.

    Have a happy day!

    I love the blues you've selected to share with us today. The bunny is really very sweet, but what I really love is the way you've displayed your items. I hope you are having a wonderful day.
