A few years ago I got rid of all my
chickens in the kitchen since they were no longer “in style.”
I instantly regretted my decision and ever since then
they have been finding their way back in.
Over the weekend I found this one
at my favorite antique mall,
Although he is meant
for the great outdoors I couldn’t stand
putting him out there and
risk him loosing more of his wonderful paint.
Have a great week my friends!!!!!!
Joining the party at:
Hope to see you there!

I love chickens in the kitchen. Well...not REAL LIVE chickens. Lol! Yours is perfect in that spot. Love the chippy paint too. Have a happy Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteOh I love him, what a fabulous find.
ReplyDeleteGreat find, Des! He's perfect in your kitchen!
ReplyDeleteNow that chicken I would love to have in my kitchen too....what a great find!...
ReplyDeleteThis last year I've gotten rid of all my roosters too. If I found one as nice as yours I would add him to my kitchen in a heart beat! I miss my roosters, but I am putting a very large cow sign in my ktchen so I don't want a whole barnyard in there. lol! LOVE your new rooster!
ReplyDeleteDes,
ReplyDeleteLove your Roo he is awesome. Glad you found him and he looks pretty nice on the counter. Every kitchen needs a roo or two.

He's a cutie! Sometimes we all have regrets of getting rid of stuff and later realizing we should of kept something. I part with a lot at consignment stores so I at least know it's going to a good home.
ReplyDeletethey went out of style? I didn't get the memo (thank goodness!).. I have an entire cement barnyard over here!
ReplyDeleteOh Deserae, I know what you mean....I used to LOVE chickens and roosters in the kitchen, but then they kind of went out of style, and I have been wanting to bring them back to my kitchen too! Your chicken looks so cute in your kitchen. It adds a special touch to that space. What a charming kitchen you have.

What a great find Des, and I love them and I don't care if they go out of style. I always have to have some in the house.

I too gave away my collection a few years back and am now thinking I should have given them a coat of white paint and kept them. Your new find is a great one!
ReplyDeleteOh Des, what a sweet find. He's so pretty. Agreed, he can't be outside.
ReplyDeleteSigh... like so many of us, I got rid of my chickens, when we built the new home and moved. I have regretted it ever since. I kept 1 from my Mr.'s grandmother. Slowly he has been getting a brood ...
Hugs, Gee
Love him!!!
ReplyDeleteLove him!!!
ReplyDeleteDes, he is a cutie pie ;-) love him....

ReplyDeleteLove him Des!
ReplyDeleteI love him!!! And anyway, style is about sharing what we love ~ not what others say is 'in' or 'out'.
ReplyDeleteI have garden statuary bunnies in our cottage that for years were in my garden, and now have a special place in our home.
