Playing House~Downton Abbey

I love being able to embroider anything I like. 

Today's post is about doing something silly and fun and just for your own enjoyment.

I am playing house today- 

Downton style.

This teacup is one of my keeps.

It generally resides under a glass cloche, lest it's sensitive nature be disturbed.

Bruce is playing the role of Isis.

He's enjoying his morning lounge by the pool.

He's collected a rock for me today, as you can see in the photos.

Why is there a rock by the precious teacup?

To fling at Thomas or O'Brien, of course.

Or maybe Edith.

I think they all deserve one right between the eyes.

Like Anna, I'm no lady.

Vintage linens frequently have distressed areas.

I love to imagine who they might have belonged to.

They are so soft and appealing with their worn and fraying edges.

A photo of my homemade chalk paint project- I still love it.

Spring time is here so I'll be changing out my shelves

The lavender is already in place..

I'm thinking this little memento will join in.

And maybe a few more.

(wink wink)

My hubby has morphed into Mr. Carson, which I thoroughly enjoy.

"Your coffee, my Lady", sounds perfectly wonderful to me in the early morn.

Oh, what a life they led.

Only nine months to go until we see Downton again.

Or is it?

Thanks for coming by!
