So it was time to get out the mini quilt that I had received in a Mothers Day Mini Swap a few years ago. And that’s my mum in the photo.
And then I thought I’d bring out some of the floral patterned china that was packed away in cupboards...most of these items have been gifts over the years.
I love hydrangeas and family and friends have given me lots of lovely items with those flowers on them
Years ago I fell in love with this pattern and saved up to buy this plate...
My daughters have given me 4 Mum mugs over the years 😍
And there is DH’s mum! I usually like to buy a bunch of chrysanthemums around Mothers Day as my mum loved them. Because I was going to be away for 5 days, instead I got a potted flowering plant instead.
Hope all mothers had a lovely day today and received lots of attention and spoiling from their offspring 😍
All of my children have been to visit and now I have chocolate and fudge to eat my way through as well as hand creams and soap and a lovely lavender pomander. I was also given 6 tamarillos by one daughter who knew I liked them :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's day Maria, I hope you are having a lovely time.

Beautiful Mother's Day display...
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed a relaxing day.
You DO have a large collection. This post reminds me of one of my friends that has passed. She mentioned to one of her daughters that she liked something. For the life of me I can't remember what, but for years her daughters gave her items of whatever it was. She's been gone 20 years and it's just escaped me what the subject of the collection was.
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day.
