Ahhh, Romance

I did say yesterday that I might post one or two of those beautiful old plates which I bought at the country fair which I recently attended. To me they are the most beautiful, romantic images, although there will be some who will probably think they are gushy, gooey, sickeningly sweet, lol. But I adore them. However, just in case they make some of you go "BLECH " , I'll only post a few, can't have romance overload now, can we?

Sigh, which ones to chose though? Hmm, lets start with this beautiful young woman -


Just look at the sweet little angels peeping round the pic and playing in the grass


Can you imagine what this young lady is thinking? Waiting for a beloved to return from a sea journey


These two girls, are they sisters sharing a secret?


Right, thats enough romance for one day. Maybe I'll show some more tomorrow.

Here are a couple of other things I found last weekend at the fair -

A very pretty little talcum powder tin, apparently designed in the States and made over here -


And this absolutely wonderful 1951 Bobby Bear's Annual -


Aren't those just the cutest illustrations?

I think I will have to call it a day now. I have a few more things to show you, but everything is soooooooo slow today, its taking ages to upload the pics, so I might leave the rest til tomorrow.
