Shades of Blue & a Bunny Too

I'm trying to participate in two parties at once.  This is something new for me and I hope I've done it correctly.
I dont have a lot of blue and white yet as I just started collecting last summer.  Then I found this tiny bunny with a sweet blue flower on its neck and just knew I had to add it.
I hope you enjoy my display as much as I enjoyed putting it together.
Thank you Barb and Tam for hosting these Tuesday Parties for Us..
 
Tam at The Gypsy Corner ~ ~ Three or More Tuesday

Barb at Grits and Glamour ~ ~ Tabletop Tuesday

  I teach psp Graphics class so I just had to make a tag using this display for them to use as a sample for tonights class.  They'll get the blank frame and have to fill it in with their choice of items.

 

Its all of Ya'll's fault you know, that I had to start collecting Blue and White.  After seeing so many beautiful displays in your homes, I just had to have some too.
The plate on the left, below, really is blue and white , its just a deep teal blue which makes it look almost black in a photo..
I plan to go thrifting with a friend of mine friday and we'll definatly be scouring the shelves for more Blue and White items..
Last but not least, I thought I'd add a my most favorite baby. Out of 109 I have made, she was the one I had the hardest time putting in a shipping box. She had a blue bunny too..  There had also been a couple of new real babies born among my friends and I was thinking making a print like this with their babies in it would make some nice wall art for them once it was framed.  they wouldnt be able to find this on any store shelves so it will make a one of a kind Memory. I can add Their favorite poem and birth date- weight - height- baby's name and such.  
as always, Thank you so very much for stopping by to see me. I cant tell you how much it means to know you visited, so please if you have a moment , leave me a comment..
Brightest Blessings  to (ALL))

  1. Very pretty, Sonny! I saw quite a bit of blue and white at Goodwill on the weekend, so I'm sure you'll be able to find something on your thrifting.

  2. Lovely. I DO LOVE your bunny. And blue and white is one of my favorite color combinations, so I too, have a little bit sprinkled here and there. Most of mine I found while thrifting or in consignments, so have fun shopping for some great finds! I love your photo work of the baby.

  18. Sonny,
    You put together a lovely composition of pretty blue pieces! I’m a big fan of delft myself. I lived overseas in Dubai and flew through Amsterdam regularly. Each visit I would buy a piece of delft for my collection.
    I would love to have you drop by my blog if you can. It's my 1st blogiversary and I have a giveaway.
    I also added your cute button to my sidebar.
    Hugs, Cathy

  19. Thank you Cathy.. I am always now on the look out for more Blue and White. I have a project planned for spring to build myself a hutch top for a cabinet I already have so I can display my treasured finds.
    Thank you so much for adding my button..
    I went to your blog and hopefully followed your instructions correctly:-) I just learned about sidebars and buttons last week-- just in time Huh? lol
    Brightest Blessings

  20. Sonny, I love the blue! And the detailed way you put it all together. Very beautiful and well ballanced. I think putting the little pinecones around the plant was brillant! It looks so polished. I am a big fan of blue and white and love yours!
