What I Love~Part Four

So who doesn't love brown transferware, right? Well then you won't be surprised to see it on the list of my favorite things as well! I have been collecting platters, plates, bowls and butter pats (love love love butter pats!) for some time now and have developed a fairly sizeable collection. I especially go crazy for pieces with that beautiful mottled look. One of my fav pieces is the huge platter in the wall cabinet. I put a sweet oval frame in front of it for effect. Hope you will be inspired to start your own collection~~if you haven't already!

**Sorry but this is a personal collection and not for sale.

    Shelly, I had to stop by and say hello and tell you what a good time we had at your sale I was even thrilled that my sister-in-law found a treasure. This is so not her thing, but it always starts with just one piece, and then your hooked, right?
    Your brown transferwaree is beautiful. I just love your collection.
    Thanks again, Everything was just beautiful. I hope I'm in town in the fall.

    Smiles,
    Becky

    Your collection of the Transfer-ware is gorgeous, the aged-color looks perfect in the setting. Don't blame you for not selling any pieces...it be too difficult to break up this prize.
    See you again.

    I wish I had the courage to keep the pieces I find, as I love their faded patinas...but I must save my space for those grungy pieces of taxidermy that clutter my halls...sooo me!!! LOL
