White Wednesday, Baa Baa "White" Sheep

As you might have noticed...I love sheep. They have wandered into several of my posts. I have a few collections, but I think my sheep are my favorite...and this is my inspiration.



My Dining Room buffet is the place where many in the herd are located.





I love this sweet little face.






Shhh...don't tell him...he's not white!






Butter dish in the curio cabinet.

Russian ram, found on Ebay.



Reproduction Staffordshire shepherdess and lamb



paper mache lamb, originally a Christmas nativity piece.

Mom and baby, a gift for Mother's Day


trinket box on brown transferware under cloche.


cast iron lamb



William Bouguereau, Madonna print, in old frame



Next week I'll introduce you to the rest.

Thank you Kathleen.

Enjoy the wonders of white today!
I am also participating in another party today,
"Feathered Friends" at Shabby Chic Cottage. You will see it as the previous post.

    I enjoyed all your sheep photos. I have a tiny collection of chalk sheep (nativity pieces I suspect)--not nearly the diversity you have! The buffet looks so pretty too.

    Are there any more sheep out there? I'm thinking you got all the good ones! Hmm I've been anchoring to start a new collection of something, maybe now I know what. You're so inspiring! I really enjoyed each one, not sure which is my favorite...maybe the one after the sweet lamb chocolate mold, unless there's chocolate in the mold, then that's my favorite, ha.

    Ewe shear are ram-bunctious about sheep. I'm sure folks flock to see your lamb collection. I wooled if I was closer.

    Oh, that was baa-aa-ad! :-)

    And to David I say:
    Ba-dum-dump. That's the sound of a rim shot. He had to work really hard for that lamb, I mean lame, comment. He certainly isn't sheepish about humor!

    I came over to see your bird contest posting, but the sheep were here above the bird post - What a marvelous collection! It would be hard to pick which sheep I like the best! Amazingly beautiful arrangement!

    I love your sheep Debra! I think they are so cute and so innocent-like. Such a peaceful little animal! I chuckled when I read that you'll be posting about "the rest of them". You surely must have a herd of them girlie!
    Should I be calling you "Miss Shepherdess", your honor?

    Hi Deborah,
    Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my new blog. I need some followers! I will add you to my blog roll too.

    Now, don't you find it interesting that we get buffets to serve food on and then fill them so full of stuff there is no room for the food!
    I love your blog...
