Blue Monday is a day for the fun of sharing our blue. Sally at, Smiling Sally, is our host for this very fun event. Please be sure and visit her blog for lots of blue treasures.
This cabinet is a vintage corner cabinet in my sister's home. My photo does not show the gray blue color very well. The first shelf is a Nippon tea set. The second shelf is my grandmother's custard glass bowl called chrysanthemum. The third shelf is various Nippon pieces. All are hand painted. I love the hand painted flowers on the top of the cabinet.
Happy Blue Monday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARY
If you haven't met Mary at, Across the Pond, let me introduce you to a very dear blogging friend. Mary is from England but has resided in the US for many years. She is a wonderful writer, photographer, and decorator. Gardening is also one of the things she loves to do. She also loves the beautiful style of everything Provence.
Today is her birthday, so please drop by to wish her birthday greetings and to enjoy her lovely blog. We have been lucky to have met in person a couple of times.
Have a wonderful birthday Mary.
Love, Jeanne

You and your sister have so many gorgeous treasures. I can see why cabinets would be handy to display some. This is extra nice because of its shade of blue. Thanks for sharing, Jeanne, and Happy Blue Monday! I'll visit Mary now.

Love the cabinet! Especially that it is a corner one. Often times it is hard to find something to put in a corner.

Thanks so much Jeanne, and all your many friends, for the happy birthday wishes - a lovely surprise!
Home now, tired and need to put my feet up and enjoy a glass of red to celebrate another year on the calendar! Had a fun weekend in Pennsylvania with Bob's family, and with some friends at their son's wedding.
Hope so much to see you soon - love and hugs.
