A vintage tin covered in pansies!
A recent thrift store find down south.
I'm thinking that I have a tall tin with a matching pansy pattern
up at the lake house.
It could be the start of another collection!
I love pansies...don't you?

- Grateful and content... ...life long collector of objects with history and soul; discovering my creative self and sharing bits and pieces along the way...
My Symphony
To live content with small means.... To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion.... To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich.... To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly.... To listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart.... To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never.... In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common....
...........this is to be my symphony.

What a pretty post!! Hope you have enjoyed your day...xoxo
Oh what a treasure to have found!
I LOVE that, and absolutely adore pansies!
That is a really great score! Hope you have a matching one, wouldn't that be something?
If you go to Bernideen's Tea Time Blog she posted her gorgeous collection of pansy tea china today!
Definately spring is in the air now with these lovely pansies!!
What's not to love about them??!!
The minute I saw the tin I thought ....sewing tin!! But that is just me....LOL!!

So pretty! I do love pansies, and just planted some in my iron urns on my front porch.
Mary Alice
I love pansies too, but none to be found here yet. You can bet that as soon as they're out in the garden centres that I will be planting some!
I L.O.V.E their sweet faces!

They are so delicate, yet one of the last flowers to bloom before the autumn frost. It looks so pretty in that old bottle!
Pansies always look happy :D

How fabulous and I love that purple bottle too!!

I think pansies are amazing. I love the color combos and their velvet texture. You have made me anxious for my yard to be filled with a riot of pansies.
Your pansy tin is just perfect. It will look lovely at the cottage.
Oh how pretty:) Yes I love them too. I bought a small box of them a couple of days ago and will plant them this week. It has been cold and even though they can withstand it, I feel better keeping them in the warmth;)

Hi Laura,
The tin if fabulous and I LOVE the colour of that medicine bottle.
Pansies are timeless and definitely my favourite.

Ps. I'll have that price of my mini kettle for you tomorrow.
love Pansies! Had them in my hand to buy at Homedepot...put them down...and bought outdoor furniture instead, forgot all about the Pansies. Never mind, have to bring the furniture back, and will buy what I origionally came for....Pansies
Wish they had such a pretty tin too, even a reproduction, sigh...
Was fun talking to you earlier. Changed the computer set up. Thanks.
Hugs and tons of love,
Evi
I've had purple pansies growing in my garden all winter. They do make me smile. Your tin is delightful. Great find. ~ Sarah
WOW!!! What a beautiful post with the most wonderful images and these colors.....!!! Incredible!

Thank you so much for your comment and I'm sorry for late visit and commenting, but still so occupied with our work here, garden, house, clearing winter demmage and....
Just took a break today for a short visit to the blogland :)
I always enjoy your posts very much and can spend hours to see all your pictures!!!
Warmest greetings from the Perigord,

Hi Laura! We love the same things; purple bottles, pansies and pansy tins! I have one that I will dig out and take some pretty pictures of, like yours. xo
Beautiful, dear Laura- love the box and the pansies.
My husbond just brought me some beautifully light lillac ones today, they are also adorable.
Hugs,Dorthe
HI Laura~~~
Love the pics with the pansy and the purple bottle. So....pretty.
Have a great weekend
~Cheryl
Coming out of months of lurking to say hello and to tell you that I SO enjoy your thrifted treasures...it is a like passion of mine and I'm always eager to see what you are sharing.
Laura, I love pansies too! What a sweet pansy tin. I think you do need to collect them now. I also love the lavender bottle. Pansies are in the local stands now. I always plant them as soon as I can-early this year, too.
Have a great weekend!
Hugs,
Sherry
So pretty! I love that purple glass bottle also! Pansies are so happy.
Blessings
Rebecca

Pansies are so pretty and dainty...and look darling in your purple jar.

Absolutely gorgeous pictures!!!
Greetings from Poland ✿ܓ
Where have I been?! I missed a lot here. First, I love the new header.
I don't think you are aloud to take vintage tins across the state line of Florida. So you better bring it back before you get caught or someone turns you in!! If you come to Fancy Flea you can bring it with you and I will take it off your hands.
Just saying...
