This week I had a whole other post of vintage goodies to share but I'll need to work on re-sizing the pictures, so perhaps next week :0). This week I'll show something I've shared before, but is never-the-less dear to my heart.
This is my china cabinet. I'm the third generation to own it. On the first shelf you'll see my collection of Princess House/Hammersley China in vintage rose. My mother had this set, but after many earthquakes over the years, most of the pieces were lost. I've probably two pieces left from her original set. The rest I've replaced as I was able to. You'll see I've two creamers and two sugar bowls. One pair was mom's and the other pair I obtained when I purchased pieces that were grouped together as a "lot".

Some pieces displayed with a vintage table cloth.
Here's the second shelf. Aside from the crystal tea pot, the other pieces are all vintage. Including the crystal creamer and sugar bowl set. The china was passed to my mother from a great Aunt. Then when mom passed, the set was given to me.
Thanks for stopping by and spending some of your Thursday with me. May the rest of your day be GREAT !!!

Beautiful china - a lovely collection!
Everything is so beautifully displayed and I love pink. Family heirloom is the best!
Hi Rechelle, all your lovely dishes are so pretty, I love how you display them!
Vintage from family is the best, isn't it? I love the fragile old dainty pieces, & how wonderful that you have been able to replace some that were lost.

I love your dishes. Love how they match the tablecloth. It's all so delicate looking.
Lovely china and crystal...what a beautiful table you can set.
Everything is so very pretty! You have it all displayed so nicely! It is such a treasure to have things that belonged to family memebers.
take care,

Everything is so pretty and I love that vintage rose tablecloth. Wish I had more room to display things, but my apartment is tiny. Someday though. xxoo
Hi Rechelle,
Lovely treasures in your special china cabinet. I have my Grandma's china cabinet and that gives me an idea that I should post about that:) Good memories.
Thanks for visiting me while I was sick.
It's almost the weekend and I am ready to thrift/estate sale or just go out !!!
Warmly,
Deb
Hi Rechelle,
How special to have some china passed down through your family. The rose pattern is lovely, and the blue flowered pieces are so pretty too. Great vintage thingies!
Hi Rechelle, your china is just so pretty...I love the rose pattern and the violet pieces are so sweet. You are so lucky to have your china cabinet to for all your treasures...hugs, Linda
I may have to participate some Thursday...I would be hard pressed to find anything NOT vintage in my home...lol! I wanted to pop over and thank you for your advice regarding the 'getting caught' post...:-). It made me feel so much better because I think it is important for kids to know that their parents' relationship is solid and loving, too! We are doing the notebook idea and so far she hasn't brought it up..so maybe I worried about it more than she did..lol. I love all of your dishes and I think I may have a few pieces of some of these..they are thrift store found and well worn..but they look familiar!
Rachelle,
Your china and crystal pieces are so pretty. I love how you have displayed them in your cabinet (and love the cabinet as well!). Like most women, I love pretty little roses, but also have a thing for blue & white! :-) How sweet that you inherited those pieces from your mother.
Thanks so much for inviting us in!

Hi Rechelle!
Oh how I LOVE your violet dishes!! They are gorgeous! I have a collection of violet things & a set of dishes and I absolutely love anything violets. All of your vintage items are lovely Rechelle!
Hugs, Sherry
Both of those sets are ta die for Rechelle. I love the Rose pattern the best I believe but it's so rare to see violets. Just delightful. I just love VTT, don't you? It's so much fun to see everyone's treasures.
Love how you pulled all these nice things together!
