Got the Blues?

The Cranky Queen is feeling a little blue...just "life"...so since blue is one of my favorite colors, I decided to create this little vignette on our breakfast room table honoring my mood...
Blue bottles, blue transferware egg cup, blue flower frog, blue & white butter pat & blue Peters P. bird

NILOAK Pottery in blue...one of my many collections that I started years ago...Niloak  was produced in Benton, ARK  from 1909~1946.  It was made in several colors, but this matte blue is my favorite! It is typically marked on the bottom with NILOAK or N.





This little birdie sits on a friend's birthday gift wrapped in blue toile wrapping paper!
This French Scale was purchased at the Country Living Market in 
Atlanta, Georgia in the Fall.
The crocheted pansey potholder is so fun...it is purple on the opposite side...I adore blue hydrangeas...
So until my blue mood improves, you may find me here, sitting in my blue chair...
Don't worry...The Cranky Queen won't be blue (cranky) for long...
