Fall Crockery Bowl Vignettes – Kitchen Nook

November 13, 2018

Fall Crockery Bowl Vignettes in the kitchen nook. My crockery love began when I received my maternal Grandmothers crock bowl.  It was one of the few pieces I have from her and I cherish it.

Watercolor of the Charmer!

In the sunny cottage garden
The hollyhocks thrive
Pleasing to the eye
And loved by the butterflies
Hollyhocks are the eatery
For larvae to thrive
Perpetuating the Painted Lady
Also pleasing to the eye

A Cottage Home

"A cottage small and quaint as it sits all alone, the sun sets just overhead giving all the comforts of home.

Ivy grows upon its walls. Warmth and laughter linger behind its door pale linen curtains white and shear, A cottage invites those who visit from far and near.

Cottages have a special magic that comes from their country appeal, A cottage holds this treasure of cottage secrets never revealed".
Shelley Costello
