Welcome to "Vintage Alphabet Party" and "Tea Cups on Tuesday"

"L" is for vintage luggage pocket embellished with sweet laces and ribbons. . .
"L" is for a Limoges charger that hangs on the wall in my bedroom. . .


"L" is for vintage Linens, a sweet Southern Belle that decorates a table in my bedroom. . .






"M" is for a Mosaic heart made from vintage china that hangs in my dining room. . . Love the sentiment on this one. . .




"M" is for Marching Musicians, a Christmas present from my dear sister, Myra. . . She knows what I love, and we love similar things. . .




"L" and "M" for old garden roses: Le Vesuve, Maggie, and Mrs. B. R. Cant, three of my favorites in rosy mugs (good for drinking tea and coffee). . .




A favorite tea cup holding a bunny with her pink tutu. . .





A plate full of pretties. . .


A favorite sign that expresses how I feel about life. . .

Hello, sweet ones! I enjoy life very much and believe that every day we are given on earth is a gift from God. We can determine how we feel about life by our attitude, and I choose to treasure each day.~"Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year."~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Hi Vickie,
Oh you sure have beautiful pretties to represent the letters L&M. I love your linens and the southern belle in your bedroom is gorgeous. Your teacups are so pretty too. Everything you display really shows how you enjoy life to the fullest. I believe it too.

I have always loved that verse on your sidebar from Langston Hughes. I remember reading it in high school, a long time ago. LOL! I still love that verse.
