Cluck'n and Crow'n

Well peeps, here is just 1 of the like 200+ entires in the rooster parade! Just for fun I put in 2 shots of the chickens we found in the backyard of the B&B we stayed at in Onancock, VA on the Eastern Shore this summer. The hostess cracked us up with a story about 1 of the hens that would lay eggs anywhere but the coop. She even squats in front of guests and leaves them an egg..we didn't get one. ;-D Aren't they pretty...I want some. I live in a deed restricted area...shucks. Hostess even painted one of the rooms the light green of the eggs. I want to run a B&B some day.
I've already seen some posts and love the vintage stuff and some of the ones where the feathers are like 3d...struttin' all over the homes. "Turn my swag on...turn it up, up, up...yeah" Ok, yes...I have a pre-teen, 7th grader in the house and hear this Soulja Boy song.Here is the curtain that was found during Spring break recently. We went camping in Rusk, TX to ride the railroad between Rusk and Palestine. We drove to nearby towns and antiqued. In Nacogdoches...Rooster love hit me hard. This curtain was what I needed for my kitchen windows. It was $50. Sounds like a lot but I KNOW some precious woman paid a small fortune to have it custom made. The shop owner almost didn't let go of it to sell it to me.

I've got my own parade in the breakfast room window. It goes all the way across 2 windows.

My dear friend gave me this piece when I got sick a few years ago. It came out of her mama's shop in Longview, TX. It's all chippy and aged...love it.

Here is the WS napkin ring set I got on their sale table. There is a Rooster, Lamb, Pig, and Cow.

OK, this placemat and napkin set came from Roses. All these years we've been going to B&B the Eastern Shore from the NC farm I thought it was a grocery. It is a huge discount store. These 4 mats were $1 each and the napkin/kitchen towels were 50 cents each...score. I may give it to my friend at StMichael'sWife she has done over her dining room and struts roosters.

The same girlfriend that gave me the statuette gave me this canvas yrs. ago. This is the vignette above the bkfst hutch.

Ok... Some of these creatures are cluckn' not so much crow'n.

love to ya!
