I am a Victorian Soul, who lives in a small townhouse that was built in the mid 1970's, not a huge Mega Mansion!! I just recently lost my Hubby Joe, who was a Retired Letter Carrier. I worked night shift as an RN on a Hospital based Rehabilitation( Physical Medicine) Unit for 37 years before I had Knee Replacement Surgery and officially Retired in 2019 after 41 years working in Direct Patient Care ... I am so glad that we retired at 62 years of age and got to spend that time together before he passed....I still do love Retirement!!!!

I DABBLE IN A BIT OF THIS AND THAT!!!!

How I Love Transferware Dishes

  Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!
 In my last post, I shared a Spring Vignette on the top of the China Cupboard in the Den ......
I used several pieces of my red and blue Transferware Collection in this display......

Click HERE if you missed this post......

Today, I will be sharing the inside of the China Cupboard ...........
If you remember, this is what the China Cupboard looked like decorated for Winter......
 Click HERE if you missed that post......

The Den is the only room where I do some decorating for Saint Patrick's Day.....

Unfortunately, because of my Knee Replacement Surgery scheduled for the end of April, I will not be decorating for St. Patrick's Day or Easter this year.......

 This is what the China Cupboard looked like last year decorated for Saint Patrick's Day......
  If you would like to see this post from last year, please click HERE....

I know that I have shown you my Transferware Collection numerous times in the past but I have changed things around a bit and displayed the dishes a bit differently......

What exactly is Transferware?????

"Transferware is the term given to pottery that has had a pattern applied by transferring the print from a copper plate to a specially sized paper and finally to the pottery body. While produced primarily on earthenware, transfer prints are also found on ironstone, porcelain and bone china."
The color theme of the Den is blue, burgundy and beige so these dishes fit in perfectly ......
The China Cupboard was given to me by a neighbor who was going to throw it out......

I refinished it to match several other pieces of furniture in the Den.......
Hanging on the left side of the cupboard.........
Is a blue toile ornament and a Victorian Lady sachet that I embellished.....
Hanging from the top of the China Cupboard is a cute wooden Garden Glove......." A Thyme to Reap"......
And hanging on the door which I like to keep open, is a pair of embellished gloves, a dove ornament and a reproduction Victorian Lady Flue Cover......
You can see that I hung a lace scarf over the door.....

I decided to use quite a bit of pieces this time......
No use keeping them stored away where no one can see them, right?????

Okay, let's take a look.......

The Top Shelf........
In other posts I did showcasing these dishes, I was asked to show the patterns closer on each piece and the markings identifying the patterns, so this is what I will be doing in this post.....

The sugar bowl did not have a lid when I bought it so I placed a flower made out of panty hose in it......

I bought a whole box of different colored flowers made out of panty hose at a church flea market....
English Village
Olde Staffordshire
I also bought this covered casserole at a church flea market but there are no markings on it.......
Anywhere........
 The tea cup did not have a saucer and there is no markings on the cup....
 Another set of tea pot and tea cup ornaments....
Dessert plate......
Creamer......
And that finishes our little peak at the Transferware dishes in my China Cupboard.....
In my next post, I will be sharing how I decorated underneath the China Cupboard.........
 And a bit more Transferware pieces....
 So I hope you will come back to visit soon......

    Your transferware collection is amazing. I have some Old Britian Castles. I love that it looks almost pinkish. That soup tureen from the church flea market is amazing. Great find.

    Your collection is exquisite Debbie. I've always loved Delftware (the Dutch transferware). My Mom had a huge collection when we were growing up. Sadly she had to give most of them away when she moved into the old age home but I have such fond memories of Mom's old house and seeing your collection brought it all back again. I hope your knee isn't giving you too much trouble. Sending love as always

    I love your collection of transferware, Debbie! I especially love the red! Love the green from your St Patrick's display too. They are all so charming.
    I also checked out your beef stew recipe. I'm sure my hubby would like it. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Hugs, Sandi
