Give Away with Nancy

If you've read Nancy's Daily Dish for long, you know she's not just about Transferware. Nancy decorates in a French Country and English Country mix that I really adore. The kitchen truly is the heart of Nancy's home.




She's a wonderful cook, 
and oftentimes her family are her endearing assistants.


She has everything "transferware" that I love, 
and knows how to style it!


Two of my favorite posts have been Garden related themes in tablescapes


She knows how to use wonderful vintage elements
to create a one of a kind tablescape.




And Nancy know's how to transform a home into a beautiful and comfortable retreat. She's not afraid of using pattern and color to create her own individual style. Below is her wonderful sitting area of the Master Bedroom.


Nancy's Etsy Shop is filled to overflowing 
with every type of transferware imaginable!
Go take a peek, then come back to tell me what you'd love to have.

Vintage Inspiration #78 Let's Dish


Last week on Vintage Inspiration Friday I talked about an interesting topic for me, and that was the Aesthetic Movement and it's influence specifically on Transferware. Today I wanted to share some photos and a link to one of my favorite blogs on the subject of Transferware. Many of you know Nancy from Nancy's Daily Dish. She is a collector and seller, and someone who is beyond knowledgeable on the subject. Here are just a few photos of Nancy's wonderful collection and tablescapes. Her collection gives her the opportunity to share so many lovely seasonal and Holiday table settings.
