~Vintage White Doghouse~

Hi Friends! I hope you all had a nice Mother's Day with your families. Today I will be joining in on the fun for ~Vintage Thingies Thursday~ hosted by Suzanne over at Colorado Lady. And also for ~Show And Tell Friday~ which is hosted by Cindy over at My Romantic Home.

I have here a vintage dog house. Maybe from the 20's Thur the 40's. I should of taken a better picture of the roof. But it has green shingles on it. Seem like the person who had built this house had put a lot of actuarial details with the wood siding and the door way. When I had seen it I couldn't pass it up. I had thought the girls would like this. They like to lay down every where else but the dog house.

We had planted some white Iceberg roses to grow up the wall behind it. And also a David Austin rose called Mary Rose which is the pink one.

The red rose is growing on the same rose pink Mary Rose bush. I'm not sure if the red is the parent rose of the pink one or it was grafted on to it.

I liked the weathered look of the little house. So I did not want to repaint it. I just sprayed some clear varnish on it to protect it from the elements.

I had bought this little treasure at a barn sale called Matilda's Mouse. They have a great sale once a month. We always find great things there.

I had to coax these two with some treats. But I'm sure if there was a ground squirrel in there they would have no problem being in the dog house. Well I hope you all enjoyed the pictures And please be sure to take a peek at the other participants. Have your selves a great week....Julian
