~Blue Wishful Shopping~

Well, it's Monday...some people love Monday's but I'm not one of them:) It seems if anything is going to go wrong for me it's always on a Monday! Blue Monday, I'm a much better person on Wednesday, over the hump day, and right on thur the week end.
So since it's Monday I've been doing some wishful shopping :) sort of makes me feel better on this dreary day.

Don't you just love these blue, ticking star pillows? Oh, to put them in a old basket or tuck them in my hoosier. sigh!!!




You know whenever I think of buying a new covering for my bed I always think quilt,quilt,quilt...well what about a nice prim blanket? My choice would be the black one the last one on the right.:) I'm seriously thinking about this one ladies!


Are these to die for or what? So darn neat and prim colonial, if there is such a word:) I would put these right on the storage bench Michele bought me for Christmas which is right next to my computur and I could just sit and stare at them:)



I have wanted one of these blue, graniteware soapholders since the 80's just have never come across them in all my travels! I put it in my kitchen right by the sink and I'd put one of these....


blueberry soaps in it, I already have the ticking and I'd hang it from the cupboard! I'm ordering one of these...I've never seen the blue like this before and I have to have it!!!



Wasn't that fun just to dream a little about having some of these adorable things to decorate our homes with?
All of the items are from Farmhouse Primitives...if you would like to shop just go to my sidebar and at the very top click on the pic and it will take you right to their website...have fun!


On the menu today...spaghetti, meatballs and garlic bread, I'm craving it:)

  3. Blue is my fav color...next to green that is ($) ...LOL
    the stacking boxies are really nice. I remember mom actually having a soap dish like this by her back porch wash stand /laundry room area. a big bar of ivory soap always there with the non-verbal message...wash your hands

  4. Those are really neat and yes I certainly would love to have them as well. The boxes are my favorite, as well as that blue soap! How neat!

    Supper sounds yummy! I can almost smell it now! :)

    Perfect prims and blessings,

  16. Enjoyed all the neat items you posted. My husband just gave me the homespun bedding for Valentine's and I soooo love it. I too, loved the black striped and it looks so 'back in the day' in our bedroom. We 'snatched' ours from Jenny at "Just Country". She just got an order in last week and had several to choose from. If you have never visited her blog, you should. You will actually get to see a mustard color hanging on a cupboard door. She really stays on top of the latest, which keeps us prim gals happy!!!! Thanks for sharing...Sherrie

    In fact, I enjoy all these things. Thanks for sharing....

  23. Rondell,
    You know I love it all as I am definitely a blue person. That granite soap dish would look so wonderful in my kitchen and those prim boxes are perfect for any prim house. You have excellent taste, my friend.

  25. Hi Sweetie,
    Me too, blue Monday! Yuk, go away. Today is better, right? I want it to be spring! Now, girlie you and I could do some shopping. We'd be broke afterward, but it would be so much fun! I love the same kind of stuff. I did go shopping Saturday and I bought copper cookware. Only problem is, they are for my 1.2 scale doll house...the big girl set cost way too much right now, so I'll wait and wish list shop too :~) Hugs, Kathy

  26. Oh come on now Rondell....go shopping for just a couple of these items...I especially love the stacking boxes.
    I have a few sets and want to add more but I don't know what the limit is for such things. Is there one???? LOL

  27. Well, blue IS my favorite color, and I love all of the goodies!

  28. Fun shopping trip this way, and really the ticket if you feel blue.
    I like the idea of a prim blanket as bed cover for winter, and a quilt for summer ( have the cake and eat it...)
    Love the soaps, what a pretty colour!
    Oooooh, and I like the menu tonight, can I come for supper?

  29. You inspired me. Almost 2 years ago I went from Dark Navy blue walls to brown hues. I do like it, but I feel like I'm missing something. I'm a red freak and feel like I need a little red in every room. However, that wasn't really working for me in the brown room. Your blues have inspired me to mix it with my browns. You know what? I love it. It's kinda soothing. Another good reason to get new lamps!! Thank you.

  30. Oh, that was fun! I feel like a shopping trip myself!
    I hope your week is looking up.

  32. Rondell,

  33. Oh no! I used to have a soap holder like that but I sold it. I wish I still had it so I could send it to you! That soap would look great in it!
