Show and Tell Friday

I love that Kelli over at http://kellishouse.blogspot.com/ hosts a show and tell Friday each week and its fun to sit and think about things to share. Today, being a bit rushed for computer time with all my wonderful company here, I decided to share something special to me, my collection of wheat pottery from Homestead Heritage in Elm Mott. If you do a search on my blog of Homestead Heritage you will come up with some pictures of this Christian community south of us.

I love the rich colors of this design and what I love even more is that each piece I own has been a gift from my husband for a birthday or Christmas. I got my first piece in the late 1990's with Emery adding to my little collection through the years. Emery grew up on a wheat farm in Kansas so having the wheat design is special to our family and all my life I have loves salt glazed pottery.

This past birthday, Emery gave me the creamer, sugar bowl and a cereal bowl. They are such nice additions to my collection.
