Staffordshire Pup Pitcher ~ Changes in the Great Room



I've been straightening up some cupboards, early spring cleaning I guess you could say.
That's when I realized a number of pups that I have collected over time,
so I decided to change things up in the great room.


One of the pups I came across was this Staffordshire pitcher
and that's when all the changes started.




I placed him on the side table by the couch and then gathered a few items from the room to complete the vignette, like this set of antique keys.





I moved some items from other places in the room,
like the hymnal and popcorn plant tied with raffia.






A couple of books under the preserved boxwood,
a shed antler at the base,
and the "Country Life" Staffordshire plate is the finishing touch.




Did I mention the pup is a pitcher?
You can't see from this angle but there is a handle on his back.






The other pups are being added to the marble top table across the room,
I'll show you those next time!

Hope you are having a GREAT Thursday!

  3. Hi Cindy and what a sweet vignette! I love your Staffy pitcher. I have quite a few Staffys but no pitcher! I'll arm wrestle you for it! ;)
    Be a sweetie,

  5. Heck, Cindy, I'd just settle for a dust free table! I can't imagine having all the nice collectibles and keepsakes to dust, too. I'd be afraid they'd get broken.

  6. Oh, I have that exact same table and I love, love it. I found it at an antique shop in Arkansas several years ago. I just recently had it refinished and it looks brand new. Love the way you have decorated it.

  7. This is a nice arrangement you have made. I like your art pieces as well. It just complements the entire table arrangement so nicely.

  8. Cindy...this is so pretty! So simple but very elegant. The pup pitcher adds a touch of whimsy! I love your decorating style. :)

    I've often wondered where you live. You might know we have a home in North Carolina. Maybe we are neighbors?!!

  12. Cindy, Your table top vignette is lovely. The pup is a relative of two I have. Found them at different times, one at Goodwill and the other at an estate sale. Aren't they adorable?
