Vintage Pink and Green
Spring is definitely in full swing here in Texas, which has me in the mood to decorate in two of my favorite colors.... pink and jadeite green. I think they look so pretty together!
I used some of my jadite collection...
my cute little pink cabinet...
vintage linens...
and whatever else I could find in these gorgeous colors from around my little cottage.
Of course one needs to use a lot of white to balance out all this color.
Some vintage lace, doilies and millinery flowers for softness.
I love this little wire birdhouse cloche I found on clearance at Michaels. I have also used a favorite green chintz plate, perfect for Spring!
Isn't this the prettiest pattern and colors?
Below is a page from a vintage lace sample book and it's the perfect shade of jadite green!
I even gave my dress form a new outfit.
I forgot to tell you girls that my dear parents came for a visit recently. My sweet mama and I had so much fun antiquing together, as we always do!
This adorable green shelf is just one of treasures I found. I'll share the rest of my finds with you in my next post.

Once again you've outdone yourself Michelle in putting together such a lovely springtime display of your beautiful treasures. I especially love that pink table that is the centerpeice of your display.

Hi Michelle! Where do I begin? You truly have a flair for the romantic. Pink and jadite are an incredible combination. I love the way you've displayed the Fiesta pitcher. Your Mama looks as sweet as you. You are so blessed to be able to share the things you love with her. I hope you're having a lovely weekend! See you again soon. Terri
You have a great collection of things in jadite green, they are so stunning, love that colour and the way you display them.
Oh, I nearly forgot. Regarding where I bought the lettered coffee mugs that I showed on my blog, they are from this homeware furniture place called "Freedom" in Australia, I don't know if you have them in the States.
Michelle, what a beautiful vignette you put together with all the jade green and pinks. So very pretty!
Just beautiful! I love your colors and everything you have! You have great taste, makes me want to start decorating! What a great shelf in that last picture!

So pretty! All my favorite colors! It remindes me a little of an old fashioned candy shop--there was also an article in Romantic Homes, March of 2009, (I think) with very similar colors! You might want to check it out! I love it all! Now following!
