Hand painting on china was something "ladies" apparently did around the turn of the last century (1800-1900)...and your little flower bouquet is a great looking example. I've never seen how it's done, with those pale colors...but will be doing some research on it. I think I still have one piece my grandmother did.Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-427560122717203300.post-32740893814869661142015-02-07T00:32:55.090+00:002015-02-07T00:32:55.090+00:00Your mother and Aunt Peggy had talent!

Your china cabinet must be like a walk thru your family history. I also liked having the photos of the owners and creators. Added wondeerful depth to the post. Particularly liked the picture of your grandmother Alice. However, I related to your gggrandomother Maria's coupon clipping. My grandmother obtained a cherished water pitcher from a box of soap - vintage early 1900s.
