Blue Tulip Glassware

Spring has sprung - I’ve put the green glass and red glass plates away. The Blue Tulip Depression Glass will be in the kitchen cabinets until the fall. As I make the change, I think about the old friends that collected it….and allowed me to buy all they had of my favorite pattern and color when they were downsizing. Those memories are good ones and extend back to the beginning of my memories. There are not very many items in my house that evoke that kind of history.

It also feels right to change things for the season inside the house just as so much is changing outside. The colors are lighter - the light is brighter - the days are longer. The Blue Tulip pattern matches the flowers that will be blooming soon and the color of the glass reminds me of summer skies.

Now that I have insulated drapes in my office and the Blue Tulip Glassware in the cabinet - the house is making the shift to spring and summer!
