Blue Fly, 60yrs ago my Aunt Jo gifted me my first pieces of blue transfer dishes from England. In 1995 I was fortunate to visit the Spode factory in England and finished my collection. Our oldest daughter just began a new journey in her life and she had mentioned how much she admired the blue and white set. Yup you know what happened next, I was overjoyed to gift them to her!!! The love of blue and white will go on for another 100 yrs don't you think? Your warm and lovely home is a perfect backdrop for them. Well done Blue Fly!!!

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

What a wonderful share, Thank you!❤️

[@HeyJoshome]

❤ Hey! I am an aunt Jo lol. Love all my niece's. I've been collecting things for a big girl tea party.

[@bonniemiller9197]

What a way to keep the love traveling in a family. Thanks for sharing.@@HeyJoshome

[@robertbaker9775]

So delightful, Beverly! A nice bowl of cottage cheese and sliced peaches always has been a favorite in our family! Yummy! 😋💖💖 Linda

[@MaryEllenSnider]

Oh my! The French Provincial hutch is EVERYTHING…beautiful❣️❣️

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

Thank you so much, MaryEllen!🎄💙🎄

[@fayecraghead6820]

Bev you find the most unique pieces! Love the hutch! Old English scratch cover is awesome on wood! The green garland is gorgeous! Love the trees from Lowe’s and all the natural greens! Cannot wait for you to decorate with all these beautiful things! I’m almost finished decorating but you gave me some new ideas! Have an awesome day and can’t wait for the next video!🎄🌲🎄

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

Thanks so much! I am looking forward to finishing up my dining room this week. We must have a Christmas Tour this year! 🎄💙🎄

[@JolovesDecor]

Battenberg lace like. I do that too Bev. Can’t think of something. Everything is so beautiful. Also, I wondered if you’ve ever looked into Valerie Parr Hill holiday items? I’ve been purchasing her items for twenty years I guess.

[@shirleygardner7456]

Wow! I’m almost speechless. Such beautiful pieces. You are quite a wheeler dealer girl to get that gorgeous hutch for $400. Cannot wait to see how you decorate with all your goodies. See you next time.

[@lindafaierson6030]

Wow, enchanting hutch. Great haul,Bev. Never lose your little girl heart,🤗

[@little_misscrafty]

Hi Bev from auld Blighty, although I was born and grew up in Bulgaria 😊, talking about peaches my granny and mum used to make special sugared biscuits that looked like peaches. I'm planning to make some this year for Christmas, so I thought to share the recipe, since you are planning to do some baking yourself. I hope you'll give them a try. BTW I am a fan of the green Spode transferwear, but even in the UK, these are rather difficult to come by. Sugared Peaches recipe: Ingredients for the dough: 350g plain flour 2 eggs 60g salted butter 60g sour cream (or thick yoghurt) 1tsp baking powder 100 to 150g sugar 1tsp vanilla paste For the cream: 2 tbs caramelised condensed milk ( boil tin of condensed milk to make it, dulce de leche) 2 tbs peach or apricot jam A drop of almond extract ( no more than that) 2 tbs of the crumbs from scooping the inside of the biscuits To achieve the peach blush: Bowl of sugar to roll into 1 bowl of peach juice with little yellow food colour 1 bowl of peach juice with little red food colour To make: Mix soft, slightly sticky dough, by beating egg and sugar till pale and doubled in size, add vanilla paste, and beat in the butter. Mix the baking powder with the yougurt and add to your egg mix. Add the flour and make the dough. With oiled hands, scoop balls the size of walnuts and lay on the baking parchment, pressing very gently so they resemble half of a ball. Bake in moderate oven untill first blush. Take out, and whilst warm ( not hot), scoop the underside ( flat bottom) of each buiscuit gently to create space for the cream. Keep the crumbs you'll need them. For the cream: combine the dulce de leche (condensed milk caramel) with the jam almond extract and fine buiscuit crumbs. Make sure your buiscuits are completely cooled. Scoop a small amount and put in the hollow of each buiscuit, then sandwich two biscuits together so they resemble a peach. To make them blush: take each sandwiched buiscuit and gently and quickly dip ( dip for a second, don't soak) one side in the yellow juice and the other in the red juice, then roll in the sugar and place in individual parchment cups. You can add mint leaves to complete the fresh peach look. They are best if they stay overnight in the fridge, and make a pretty addition to afternoon tea tray petit fours 🫖 I hope you'll give them a try 😊

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

You are simply the BEST! Thank you so much for sharing this fabulous recipe! The time you took to type out this message was extremely thoughtful. Many Blessings.🎄😘🎄

[@darlakay6810]

Your new treasures are lovely. I can’t wait to see how they come to life in your sweet cottage. Laura at Garden Answer refers to using beautiful things like your Spode dishes as “romancing the ordinary”. Who doesn’t need a little romance!? Have a blessed week. 🥰

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

Oh thank you! Yes, Romancing the Ordinary by Sarah Ban Breathnach is a great read for romancing our senses. 🎄❤️🎄

[@karellarsen939]

I love your new, old hutch! It’s beautiful Bev! I look forward to seeing your Christmas decorating complete!! Hugs to you and I love your new copper pieces as well as the greenery! ❤️❤️

[@JaeRae2024]

Funny thing about the cottage cheese and fruit. My mom served us a couple lettuce leaves with a peach half or two on top with cottage cheese scooped into the peach halves. I still do this today and still love it. Your video was beautiful, as usual. I always enjoy watching your finds and decorating.

[@RamonaL909]

Gorgeous finds ! WOW. PERFECT DAY , went to North Carolina and had a girl day. Went to the huge vintage market days at the fairgrounds! Two huge buildings full of fabulous things. Then I took my daughters and two granddaughters and daughter in law out to lunch. Your video just finished off my perfect day ! Hugs, Ramona

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

A full day of happiness surrounded by the ones you love😊. Stay blessed! 🎄😘🎄

[@beverlysmith9854]

Wow Bev, you always inspire me. You always have the most beautiful taste. I have a cabinet with the similiar carving.I can't beleive your finds. I wish the one I have was that wood , mine is mahogany.

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

Thank you❤️! If it’s solid mahogany the dark oil can be used. Have a wonderful weekend.🎄💙🎄

[@NC_girl]

Beautiful haul Bev 🥰 I stopped midway into the video and bought a tree like yours at Lowes!! Its sooo pretty...tfs 😊

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

Thank you, Sweet Sarah!🌷😘🌷

[@dianaroque8458]

Your channel is my favorite. I just adore every piece you share. Makes me treasure all my goodies so much. Also, i love your designer eye you have. For example, the jar of peaches. How amazing that is! The beauty of it inside your hutch is just luscious. I appreciate you sooooo much. Thank you once again. I bought your FROG LAMP many years ago. Just smile every time i look at it. Blessings 😊❤

[@jeane561]

Beverly The blue and white pieces are just gorgeous. I’ve always loved blue and white and I look forward to your displays. Love and blessings 💙💙💙

[@andreagosling5452]

This Spode pattern is the exact set in my China cabinet. I have had it for many years. I have the same teapot and many, many other pieces. I LOVE my blue and white. Especially with green. They just POP together. Blue and white goes with EVERY Holiday. Question,,,,,,have you ever made a “plate” wreath??? I have seen them on Pinterest and I just love them. I have always wanted to try to make one. Just interested if you have ever made one and if you would share it. Thanks. Love your channel.❤️❤️❤️

[@kellieskenandore6199]

I loved your haul! Can't wait to see what you do with your new pieces! By the way, I am definitely a cottage cheese gal!! Hope you and family are doing well!

[@darlenmilam4036]

I adore the hutch, its beyond beautiful. May I ask what you paid for the Lowes tree as Im interested in getting one. As for the cottage cheese we love it with peaches. Pears and pineapple. So excited to see your coming posts. ❤

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

Thank you! I believe the tree was around $70. 🎄❤️🎄

[@KayeCarterTV]

Love this video…as always. Oh yes, I love cottage cheese too. ♥️Sending love hugs prayers and kindness ♥️with positive thoughts

[@DeborahWatts-s4d]

So lovely Bev. Everything is placed just perfectly. I have issues with storing my decorations after the season. How do you manage. Deborah North Carolina 😊❤

[@wildroses9382]

OMGEE! The new hutch is to die for, breathtaking. I will give you $450 for it!! Girl, you and I need to be friends! I have collected blue and white porcelain for years and I never tire of it. I also collect cake pedestals! And I could not live without a kitchen adorned with copper! I am obsessed with French and English country, anything… Love is this video as I love all of your videos. you have such a funny sense of humour and an appreciation for beauty. You never cease to inspire me! Thank you, Stephanie💙🤍💙

[@emiliagarcia6868]

Hi Beverly 🙋‍♀️ Beautiful blue and white transfer wear dish set 💙🤍 They look beautiful in the French provincial hutch❤😊As for cottage cheese, love with any fruit also cottage cheese and sliced tomatoes with a little salt and black pepper , yum😋, the peaches looks so delicious 😋 Have a great day ❤😊

[@purrrfect6032]

Hi Beverly your Videos are very inspiring and so beautiful! Thanks for sharing your multi faced talents I certainly benefit. Question when you purchase from FB marketplace do you only shop close to where you live? I was wondering about the shipping of furniture or you pick up yourself. I have never purchased from FB therefore I do not know anything about it. Maybe I sound ridiculous for asking but thought I would. You have sparked my interest. I do look forward to the baking videos. Sincelery, Cleone ❤🩷💙💚💖

[@Cinderella1125]

Beverly, your blue and white Spode dishes look stunning against your gorgeous open hutch. Oh my, what a find! Old English polish certainly rejuvenates wood pieces. Your new greenery will enhance your decor beautifully. My sister frequents estate sales in southern Florida and sends me lovely Spode dishes for my collection. Tea prepared with an electric tea kettle in a pretty teapot is a great way to enjoy a cuppa! I don't save my pretty teapots just for "good," every day is good! Wonderful haul, thank you for sharing!💙🤍♥💚

[@LauraBaxley-g5y]

My goodness Bev your hutch and dishes are breathtaking!! I love it all. Yes cottage cheeses and peaches yummy!! I’ll eat cottage cheese with anything I love it!! Have a blessed day. Laura ❤

[@lindahensley1646]

Beautiful Hutch Bev. I'm glad you informed us of the old English cleaner, that's probably what happened to my dresser. Do you know of any way to repair it after using it on veneer furniture other than stripping and refinishing? I'm like you with my coffee, I like it well blonded. I'm not a tea drinker. Beautiful finds and can't wait to see how you decorate with them.

[@shelleyimmel8067]

I bought those peaches at Costco today as well and I am going back for another after Thanksgiving to display as well in my two smaller maple buffets. I find your videos so enjoyable and they inspire me to rethink some of my decorating decisions as well. I am making a good faith effort to use what I have, but I may venture out for selected treasures after the holidays. Love the blue and white Spode. I have the traditional Christmas Tree Spode pattern which comes out after Thanksgiving, and I have the lovely teapot that a friend brought me from Harrads in London on one of her trips back from Scotland now about 40 years ago. So special.💙🙏💙

[@phylliscalkins1607]

Your haul is beautiful as usual. The hutch is amazing! Everything is so pretty. We always ate cottage cheese with peaches growing up. I think it was a thing in the 60's and 70's and maybe 80's.

[@kathypeterson526]

Love you and love all of your beautiful haul, especially the cabinet! Can't wait to see you do your Christmas magic with it.💝💝💝

[@TheSweetnsalty1]

Love your hutch and dishes , I purchased a beautiful hutch , table and chairs about six years ago from a lady changing out her decor for 800. It’s the dark finish and I have it loaded with the cranberry and white transferware that I had been collecting for years. It makes my heart so happy every time I look at it.

[@jeanjones7486]

Totally inspired I may start decorating for Christmas earlier than I was planning thank you so much Beverly for sharing you have a beautiful house and I love your decorating

[@donnahenson5668]

Stunning cabinet - you did get a GREAT deal!!! I love how you styled it - so beautiful

[@jeanettecameron7530]

I'm fascinated by the notches in the hutch. Evidently you can adjust the shelf height! Fabulous piece!

[@karenferrel8308]

I too, love cottage cheese. Thank you for sharing. Everything is beautiful ❤

[@barbarakozlowski2642]

What a Gorgeous cabinet ❤ Love all the greenery. Dishes are beautiful, I myself would purchase the sugar bowl just to have the complete tea set.

[@kathystout8819]

Perhaps it’s Battenburg lace. Very beautiful ❤️

[@brendaharbin6598]

Oh my it’s all BEAUTIFUL. GOOD JOB

[@doanetriggs5563]

You have such a talent and gift for display and it is just fascinating to watch you bring everything together for a magical unveiling!

[@terrysmith5574]

Hey Bev, I hate to think what you would do if you lived in a 10,000 square foot house lol. The pieces that you stumbled on has your name on it or it has Terry lol. I know I keep saying it but your videos with your voice with the enthusiasm of each thing you bring to us I can listen and watch your channel day and night ❤️. From your friend in Athens Georgia 🎄

[@sandywallace218]

I am new to your channel last month and I love it, your style is right up my alley and you buy supper quality. You are a hoot to watch looking forward to more videos.

[@marilyn7772]

[@duncanburl7586]

You have good taste. I picked the same tree for this year. The color and the basket itself stood out to me. Great eye!

[@rhondaadams230]

I eat cottage with fruit and also with tomatoes and salt and pepper and also with chips as a dip.

[@valarieklein2766]

Bev, I am madly in love with your hutch. It is absolutely gorgeous and spectacular. I could only wish that I would be able to find things like you do. I don’t know how you do it. Love how you styled your hutch as well. Regarding the cottage cheese, I always purchase the pineapple and cottage cheese at the grocery store. I enjoy plain cottage cheese with some canned fruit that I add in also.

[@cathygeary100]

Bev So Beautiful the hutch is beautiful great find love the blues and and the greenery I love your decorating I like my tea with honey and lots of cream also you have such a great sense of humor God Bless

[@charlesoberdorf8478]

Donna here, I also had a German mother. We always liked quark with our fruit, and my mom tried forever to find how to make quark here in the US, but it never turned out right. I'm in my mid 60s and miss authentic german food very much!

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

What a fond memory with Mom😊. Yes, authentic german food is fabulous.

[@patriciaraschdorf5514]

WHAT AN AMAZING FIND YOUR HUTCH IS THE TIMELESS BEAUTY THE CRAFTSMANSHIP THE ASTONISHING PRICE IT WAS MEANT FOR YOU

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

I will share again soon.😊

[@TheSweetsherrypie]

I love cottage cheese and pineapple. My mom made it as a side dish if we had a nice meal 🙂

[@dianeabney1745]

Love it all and I also love cottage cheese with fruit😊

[@aprilninthr2886]

Everything looks so wonderful in your new hutch but I am in love with Blue Italian Spode. I have had it for many years and it never gets old. It looks especially good at this time of year next to an orange pumpkin and the colors of fall. Oh, that tea pot is calling me!! Which credit card to use?? Thanks for this, Beverly.

[@carriedavis9675]

[@juliafeliciano5372]

Beautiful beautiful pieces 💙🧡💙🧡💙

[@lianeabeyta4515]

I have been collecting blue and white transferware for over 40 years now. It is still my favorite. I eat off them everyday too! THose and my collection of tarnished silver trays, candlesticks, pitchers, pedestal dishes, sugar and creamers. I just feel it makes my kitchen so cozy. Love the color and carving of the hutch. Gorgeously styled to perfection, of course.

[@DarlaPenados-rp1ss]

Lol on the cottage cheese and peaches my mom ate them so there for I do too ❤

[@pannikartofli8161]

Love the blue transfer ware! Our family always had the cottage cheese with fruit too! I still do 😊 Thanks for sharing the haul. Looking forward to the decorating next.

[@Maria-cp2ty]

Butiful haul 🙋🏼‍♀️👍🇨🇦❤️

[@jo-annmaruszak9885]

Great finds. Love it all.

[@valerienelson3296]

Always so inspiring Bev, wow that was such a score and I never knew you couldn't use old English on anything but solid wood. THANKS! good to know. I thought of you when I saw a tree made of all hydrangas in a square basket like the one your little tree was in, and then they had single lightly "flocked" pine pieces pointing down all around the top of the basket. Another great haul! Those gold peaches are the perfect touch to those amazing blues 💙

[@barbaracarlson1331]

Cut work or pulled thread work

[@terrypeacock4999]

Absolutely beautiful haul. The cabinet is gorgeous, and I love the Spode dishes, blue and white is my favorite color combination.🌲🌲

Wow what a beautiful hutch it is stunning. Love the trees and garland they look so natural and real. Beautiful blue and white dish set. The valances are gorgeous along with the panel you found. Thank you for sharing your hauls. 🌲⛄️🦌🎄😊

[@gingermorales6677]

Funny thing about cottage cheese with a peach half, my mom was so glad non of us 5 kids liked cottage cheese, so that was the only thing that was all hers. My dad did not like it, either. ❤️

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

😂🤣😂 How great for Mom!❤️

[@judygalley2251]

Where are you going to put this hutch, Bev?

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

It will stay in the dining room for now!😊

[@chrisflamma5360]

Beautiful hutch (even better with the deal you got, Bev)! I love Old English! Can’t wait to see your decorations in the hutch ❤

[@courtneygoss4771]

Absolutely gorgeous ❤

[@barbaracarlson1331]

Same here with cottage cheese and fruit!!! Mom called it sunshine salad when using peaches.

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

I love this!❤️
