Roosters Roosters and More Roosters

 

What a fun event – a Rooster Blog Party.  In every corner of my kitchen you’ll find a rooster.

On a shelf…

or a wall…

a countertop…this little guy was a country blue and believe it or not I painted him black and then polka dotted him.  He’s a lot happier as a polka dot chicken.

Occasionally I roast a chicken in my vintage roaster

and serve it up for dinner!

My husband made this wonderful frame for this rooster print by Nancy Noel years ago.  He hangs above my stove.

Recently I found these chairs on line and I knew they were meant to be mine.

And I love this little napkin holder I found on ebay and then about a year later…

I found another one!

My in laws house was always called Reebs Roost and then our house inherited the name so when we opened our Antique store of course it was just natural we’d name it…..

Many thanks to Barb at Bella Vista for hosting this fun party.  On her site you’ll find all the rooster lovin’ blogs participating today.
