THREE OR MORE TUESDAY: FRIEND OR FOWL


ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR
WHO DO WE ADORE
TAM, TAM
FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT
WHO DO WE APPRECIATE
TAM, TAM.
Of course we do cause Tam@ The Gypsy's Corner is hosting 3 or More Tuesday once again. Drop in there to see all the participants. Make sure to leave a comment.

I am one of those people who have a thing for the barnyard. Mostly roosters and chickens. Here are just some of my collection. I definately have more than 3 but have only put a few on here today.
Above my kitchen window I have these little hens.
Don't look at the pushpins or the cobwebs.
I am too short to reach up there to dust.

This bucket would qualify twice because it is part of
this larger theme but it is also one of 3 different sized
buckets with the same picture on it.
Way on top of my armoire I have two twisted metal
roosters that are filled with twigs. Very rustic.
I wanted to move them so you could see them better
but the old ladder would have had to come out again
and I am far too lazy for that. Sorry.
This fellow looks into my dining room from the end
row of cabinets in the kitchen. He has a mate that is
looking down on him from the higher shelf. Saving her
for another day too.

I really don't have any wall space in my kitchen. It is all
cupboards. This fella hangs right by a doorway which is
truly about all there is for walls. Although he has a hook
I don't hang anything from him. Just for cuteness.

Well that is a bit of my fowl friends. I will show the others some other time. I have to tease you guys a little bit.

  1. Oh, these are fabulous. A long time ago..a couple years, i think..we had a ROOSTER PARADE..Beverly at How sweet The Sound hosted it..It was so so much fun...we had roosters coming in from all over the world and I think the parade lasted all week long. So fun...might be time to do that again.

  2. You know, I've been doing this blogging for only a couple months now and ME, who doesn't even cook anymore am seriously thinking of putting some little thing on Foodie Friday!!!! Also I am really starting to like kitchens decorated with roosters! Now, this just isn't me; something weird is happening! I played around a little with tablescaping on holidays in the past but now I am obsessed with finding dishes. I'm supposed to be simplifying!!!! I would've bought a dining room set at a garage sale last Thurs. if I had had a truck!!!! Oh MY!!!!!!

  3. Lori, I like all your roosters but my favorite is the one sitting on the hutch with green, orange and yellow colors. I like the plates in the same colors too...Christine

  4. Lori,

    I like your rooster collection. I have one large colorful rooster that sits on my counter. Like you I have no wall space. And I can't really have a collection of anything in my kitchen because it is the ground zero of my home. I just make neat piles of everyone's non~kitchen related items everday!

    Happy TOMT, Lori!!

    xoxo

  11. Wow, I used to have the same wire rooster, Lucy. I like them all. Roosters are the French symbol of virility. I guess that it explains it, but I don't know what exactly.

  12. One of my students this year was from Portugal and as part of her project she wrote about the Portuguese symbol of the rooster. Who knew!!!

  13. I love roosters!! I have a collection as well. I just a new rooster for my collection this past weekend on clearance at JoAnn Fabric of all places. I need to show off my collection sometime. That is what I love about this meme, it reminds us of our collections. We sometimes forget because we see our items all the time.

  14. Hi Lori!

    I'm a collector of roosters & hens too! You have some beauties there. May I also say that the title of your blog is one of the best I've seen yet!

    Have a great Tuesday,
    Chris

  15. My husband had one rule when we got married. No chickens. Ugh. That didn't last long. I found an awesome chicken weathervane that I now have in my kitchen.

    I'm getting me a real chicken one day. Home owners association rules are over-rated.

    I'd have a whole house of chicken stuff if I had my way!
