FABBY: My Little Friends
I also collect cake stands with pedestals, so here are some of my dog collection with some of cloches as well.
The skinny black couple, greyhounds, are vintage French bronze
Inside this cloche, cheese cloche is a pug and a foo dog I bought in NY's China town many years ago.
This big Foo dog I bought in NY's China town a very many year ago, in the 80's.
Our beloved Pug Ben in the gold wooden frame.
Aren't they so very cute?
Here is my beloved Ben...I miss him, he was so much fun and so lovable. snif,snif,snif......
This is my dog collection. I have some vintage, like the French bronze, some are new porcelain, some gifts and some antique.
I love dogs, real ones and collecting porcelain ones, too. We lost our pug Ben last year, he was 12 yrs. old and I still miss him very much. I still have not made up my mind about getting another furry friend...I hope I will, eventually. You can see Ben in the picture frame.
Thank you for the hostess of this great party, hope someday I'll join with a real furry Little Friend!
Wishing you all a very blessed and happy Mother's Day.
Love
FABBY
What a lovely collection -- of both cloches and dogs! I'm sorry to hear about Ben... I know what it is like to lose a beloved pet and it is so hard.

Wow, Fabby! I love your collection, and it is so beautifully displayed! ~ Yes. Losing a pet is a heartache that I dread going through again. My dogs are my babies! :)
ReplyDeleteI love this post! I also collect dogs. Your display with cloches and cake stands is inventive. My daughter's dog is a pug, and the best little dog. Another dog will need you soon!

Oh so sorry you lost your beloved Ben, Fabby. Love your collection especially the greyhounds. I think that's what they are, the skinny ones, right? I am drawn to cake stands with pedestals too, my problem is that they take too much storage room. I don't think the plates are Spanish, I just bought them from Ross, really cheap, like $1.99 each about 2 years ago. I am glad I bought them cause I haven't seen them anywhere else since. They look handpainted too. Thanks for stopping by Fabby and Happy Mother's Day!...Christine
ReplyDeleteHi Fabby, Great collection. I especially love the two white ones on the cake plate on the right. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteFabby, you have a beautiful and unique collection of dogs. I'm so sorry about the loss of your sweet Ben. I wish you a blessed Mother's Day. Pamela
ReplyDeleteDolcissimi!!!Buon fine settimana e festa della mamma!Rosetta
ReplyDeleteYour collection is stunning and it is displayed beautifully. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteLove your collection! We lost our 15 yr old shih-tzu and debated getting another for a year... didn't want to feel like we were replacing him. We finally gave in and got another. It has filled such a hole in our hearts. Some of his antics remind us of our Scooter but it is fun sweet memories. Go ahead and get you a new fur baby you won't regret it.

Fabby, You have a lovely and interesting dog collection and cake plates.
ReplyDeleteIt's difficult to lose a family pet, but easy to remember the sweet nature and loving ways of your Ben.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend and Happy Mother's Day.

What different collections you have. Not many would have that many cake stands. Yours are great, and I really enjoyed seeing all your doggies.
ReplyDeleteCute collections!
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday!
Enjoy your weekend.

That's a great collection! Everyone (well almost everyone) loves dogs, so I'm sure that collection is a converation starter from all who enter your home. Very sorry about your loss of Ben. We lost our favorite dog two years ago, and we still miss her. You love them, so it's hard to let them go. You'll know when the time is right if you are ready for another dog. It will never replace Ben, but it may help with any sadness you still have. There is no rush on that though, the right "new" dog will touch your heart at the right time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonbderful collection! I'm so sorry you lost your Ben, but this is a wonderful way to memorialize him. Vanna
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your collection of dog figurines! But you are missing a very important one... a schnauzer :) That is what I collect (for obvious reasons).
ReplyDeleteI hope you find great joy in your memories of your dear Ben.
Beautiful simple pleasures post!!
