***Sweet Dreams***

I added something special to my bedroom this week!

You’ve all seen my bedroom a bunch of times!

But have you ever noticed the tray I have on my cedar chest?

This week, I got a Swan from Raggedy Angie.

She makes the MOST beautiful swans in existence!

But where will I put it?

DSCN3665

I have so many spots that need a swan.

PMDSCN3667

Do you think I need more than one?

Of course Angie and I have been friends for a long time. She and I share the love of Raggedy Annies and I’m always visiting her blog to see if she has a new one. She has a fabulous collection.

So when she sent the swan that I ordered from her, she send more goodies! The little doll is even from her Grandmother’s collection of dolls.

I will treasure it, Angie! Thanks for making my bedroom more beautiful and sending me such thoughtful gifts!

Visit Angie’s blog, ‘Just a Lil Raggedy’ HERE ! She custom makes the swans so don’t be shy....ask her about them!

I’m joining Katherine’s Corner this morning!

So do you think I need more than one? heehee!

Enter room w that beauty on the small chest alone...respnse: "ooooooooo ahhhhhh" then enter the room with multi swans to tease the eye.."OOO so you collect swans?"

It's beautiful. I think two more would be perfect to complete the family. What a nice surprise to receive so many special treasures.

Unknown said...

That pretty swan looks like she's swimming in a pond sitting on the tray. And don't you just love Bellingrath Gardens?

BTW, the Cherry Lip Balm tastes just like cherries, you almost want to eat it! And the pain relief balm really works. And it has a pleasant scent, not mediciny.
And Wilma's soap is so nice, I think she actually enjoyed it! Its very mild on her skin. I will probably be ordering more of those products!
Have a good day,
Dorothy

Simply Shelley said...

More than one? Well,she would most likely love having a companion :) I always enjoy visiting your home. Especially your doll room,but then again,you know about me and dolls :) Which leads me to comment on that precious little doll you received along with your swan....very sweet indeed.
Blessings dear friend

Sherry@Back2Vintage said...

Beautiful swan. I think the more the merrier!

Unknown said...

yes I would think two or a pair of swans would be good too. We have a pair of swans in our subdivisions pond ..they are not native to Ohio (we purchased them)but they are beautiful to gaze at and watch

Diane,
I love your swan!! I have one of Angie's swans too. I got it when I went up state to the show she was in this past Spring. Mine is sitting in my dough bowl on my dining room table. I don't think you could ever have too many swans!!

And you definitely need a couple more to make a happy family :-)

You have a beautiful bedroom and the swan looks very graceful. I'm sure you will have fun finding a place for it.

Cheryl @ TFD said...

The swan is beautiful and I do think you need another one! The tray caught my eye. It's so pretty and reminds me of a vacation where Bellingrath Gardens one of the places we visited many years ago. It's so beautiful there, I'd love to go again!

Tammy@T's Daily Treasures said...

Your swan is very pretty. I have one that was from my country decorating days that I just can't part with. My style is very eclectic anyways, so anything goes. That little doll is lovely, too. Have a fabulous day. Tammy

Introverted Art said...

How sweet! She does lovely work!

The swan is very pretty and if you are taking votes, I like it on your bed the best. It is very nice with the darker contrast behind it.

I know you'll have fun with the new doll. I always love your doll posts, so you'll have to do one to show us how you displayed this one in the doll room.

Hope you have a great weekend!
