Cloches

Cloches. A party. At Marty’s. Over at A Stroll Thru Life.

It’s a grand idea. I however, did it in a small scale. My cloches are not large. The contents are petite. I have always been drawn to tiny objects.

My cloches do not usually reside in the window seat. I was chasing the light!

The cake plate is Joe’s mother’s. The teapot is CC’s grandmother’s. I treasure them both.

  9. I love cloches, too! And yours are so pretty! I have just one, but I would love to get some more :) I also really like your cake pedestal. I have two which I treasure, one my mom gave me that she & my dad received as a wedding gift many years ago. Thanks so much for visiting, and for your nice comments!

  10. Love your little pitchers under cloches, Olive. I have a few of those little pitchers, but never thought about covering them with a cloche. I see a new display coming on.
    Your teapot and cake stand really special too.
    I have read Anne Rivers Sidons...wondering what book you are reading.

  14. Wonderful, Olive! I have a little one, too. I need to find it a permanent home, but like you, I will most likely be chasing the light if there is another cloche party. I'd like to get one a little bigger ~ they make for a nice way to display things. Back to Good Will, I guess!

    Sometimes they're tricky.

    So wonderful to meet you and I love your story.
