Gift shop displays

I have spent a couple of days re-doing the displays at the gift shop. I just love working there even though I am exhausted when I get home. The Christmas stock is starting to arrive so I will spend a day displaying that next week. As soon as I walked in the other day I spied these cushions!!! I just loved the soft green and teamed with the grey I think they make a great display.

Doesn’t this day bed look inviting??? As you can  see the shadows where starting to come across as it was late afternoon. I find this area quite hard to photograph as it has the large window behind but this is usually the first display I do…something eye catching for the window. This spotted china is just gorgeous. I’m thinking I might have to buy this myself…maybe if I ask Secret Santa nicely!!!

Aren’t the little bowls beautiful??
Another display I did was with the black and white china. Sometimes black and white looks a bit nothing by itself so I usually try to bring a pop of colour into the display. This week I used bright pink. I had found this roll of wrapping paper in pink with little French ladies and their poodles. It was just enough to give the display a lift. You will also notice a couple of glass cloches….these are just for Marty with her cloche party this week!!

Marty's Cloche Party


Today I wanted to share with you this cute little minature tea set I have and the perfect place to show it was under a cloche at Marty's party!



The tea set was hand painted for me many years ago by a friend and I have managed to keep it safe from little fingers.



The teapot and sugar bowl both have removable lids and have the rose painted on both sides. I have placed it on a white side plate with gold trim as I thought this brought out the gold edging on the tea set.



The glass dome is actually off a lovely mantle clock but it was the perfect fit to cover the tea set.



I have placed my sewing thimble next to the tea set so you can really see how tiny it is...


Thanks Marty - have a happy Easter!!

PS Thought I'd pop over and join Cindy at My Romantic Home for show and tell..
