Now this is what my grandmother had. No indoor plumbing at all. She lived on a small farm and when we went to visit her, I was always scared to use the outhouse but thought it was great fun to get water from the well and pump. :0
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful ironstone set! Love the pattern, and I don't think I've ever seen a complete one like this. I once lived without running water for a year. A few extra steps is all. (I can say that now... haha)
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty--and the white is restful, serene.
ReplyDeleteYour bathroom set is very beautiful and a treasure to keep!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful blog you have! Sorry I haven't come over quicker. I'll be following you, too.
ReplyDeleteWould love for you to join our Country Whites Weekend, beginning first thing Friday morning (Feb 15). Just go to The Country Farm Home and link up!
