Berries Galore- A Spring Hutch Tour

 And a berry good day to you! Happy Tuesday, Sweeties! Please do come in and join me . Last week I was bound and determined to change out the hutch decor.

 I pulled out all of my strawberry stitches, dug in my cabinet for berry plates and ceramics and then went to town filling my hutch to the brim. 



My newest addition is the vintage Betty Crocker Pie Parade booklet. Isn't it so pretty in red?  

 

My Strawberry Jam Jar  and Strawberry Jam and Biscuits Stamp look perfect with some strawberry preserves. The vintage embroidered piece is a fabulous thrifty find from over 20 years ago. 




Amy Lou the Berry Picker  takes center stage on the middle shelf. It is in memory of my sister , the sweetest berry picker ever. All of the plates, berry pitchers and ceramic baskets are thrift store finds. 
Mini Strawberry Sampler is precariously tucked into a pitcher while Strawberry Quilt Stamp is in the berry basket. 


Strawberry Saltbox is one of my favorite little houses. The colors just speak to me. 

The Jewel cookbook is another new addition . Do you collect cookbooks? I enjoy the older cookbooks. Mr . Pinker always jokes with me that he wished I cooked from them more. Hee! Hee! 


"Sweet Strawberry " is a freebie from Caroline at Cosmic Handmade. It is a strawberry favorite of mine as well. . 

The bottom shelf is filled with a modge podge of strawberry pieces. 


The Strawberry Pitch truck was a Dollar General piece from a couple of years ago. 


The salt and pepper shakers are always on the hutch . They are gifts from my sis. 


So that is my berry hutch in a nutshell. Filled to the brim with pure sweetness. Well at least in my eyes. 


Thank you so much for joining me today.  I plan to spend the afternoon stitching on a new strawberry piece. 
What do you have in store for the day? 

The beginning of Berry Bouquet.

 Yum! Yum! It is Strawberry Season; well at least it is  here in my neck of the woods.  There are strawberry festivals in different communities coming up in the next few weeks ,and of course, lots of strawberry treats to eat. So why not  kick start the season with  a Strawberry Stitching Parade!  I would be so honored if you joined me on this fine day as I celebrate one of my favorite fruits. 

These are just a few strawberry related cross stitch and embroidered pieces that I have shared over the years.  If you see any that you are interested in, just click the colored link and you will magically be transported to that post.

That was not a long parade was it? Oh, well that is ok that gives me more excuses to work on berry stitches. And speaking of berries, I can not leave out my 2 blueberry stitches. They are as cute as a button too.
