Buzzin' Bees in the Foyer

 Since the quilts were changed. It was time to change the country clutter on the shelf in the small foyer. 

I posted a closer look at the late summer quilts yesterday in my Changing of the Quilts.

But first I tackled the year round tree which is nestled in an old enamelware pot.  Sunflowers and floral pics were gingerly tucked in the tree for the summer season. 

  Sunflowers  which I finished on a Dollar Tree wooden arrow serves as a sunny tree topper. 

The little curly-q pics were a gift from dear Sonja. Thank you, dear.😘 ❤

Above the tree, I shooed away the Mr. and Mrs. Goose stitch  which had hung all summer long. It was a thrifty find from last year.  Do you know who was the designer?  

HONK ! HONK!🪿🪿 I just love that geese are back in style. I am sure this is from the 1980's-90's . 

 Goode Huswife's "Ida Mae Crow" flew into it's place . Isn't she the sweetest? She is finished on a wooden plaque. 

The vintage shelf is filled to the brim with vintage items and  clutter galore!  

Old green enamelware with a sweet stitch from  Notforgotten Farm . It is a freebie called June .

Jars of honey and old pitchers. 

Of course there are crocheted pieces tucked in crocks with stitched pieces gingerly displayed on top. 

Be Blessed is a freebie from my sweet friend  Vicki at , Stitchy McFloss blogspot

There are stacks of brown, green and yellow bowls. 

Old utensils and More stitched pieces. 

Plates, bowls, pitchers and stitching galore! 

 Love Bees" by Hinzeit , "Bee" a freebie from From the Heart Needleart  and  my  Summer Ewe freebie shared years ago. 

Corny little salt and pepper shakers nestled into vintage green pieces of pottery make me smile. 

The dough bowl is filled with more kitchen utensils and stitched pieces including....

Queen Bee , a Little House Needleworks design, and  "The Bee Happy, Bee Kind" , an old Prairie Grove Peddler freebie which I can no longer locate on their website. 

And I must not forget to add a advertising tin. 

There are even a few chickens. 

A chicken in a crock pitcher.  Cluck! Cluck! 

Yep, every nook and cranny was filled. 

Soon the bees will buzz away and crows will roost in their  place along with roly poly pumpkins.

As Always...

Happy  Stitching and Quilting, y'all
