That is when I bring out my red transferware collection.....
which just whispers, to me to Haul or the holly!!!!
And Mr. and Mrs. Fox... my dear little British friends who winter over with us each year! They never fail to remind me of Roald Dahl's book, Fantastic Mr. Fox.... This was one of our favorite books to read with Amanda who always cheered so gallantly for Mr. Fox in his endeavors to outsmart the devious bad guy farmers.... she loved to imitate the pups in their cry, ; "Mummie, will there be dogs?"
as their courageous father would venture out of the den and into the night! Such a great story!!!

You can see just how very dapper Mr. Fox truly is!
This simple decor is just enough to help me get excited about wrapping gifts and and addressing cards prior to hauling out the more serious yuletide trappings! So this weekend as I tidy up from Thanksgiving I know just how I will initiate the hanging of the greens and the decking of the halls.... a bit of red and white with a jolly old friend or two... topped off with a lovely cup of Christmas tea and a fresh baked cookie! I can hardly wait!
Those red dishes are simply lovely! And your foxes make quite a pair!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
Your red transferware is stunning. I love how you have arranged your vignette and the dolls are perfect. I don't think I have ever seen the Fox ones before, but they are spectacular. Thanks for joining TTT and Happy Thanksgiving. Hugs, Marty
