Welcome to the Rooster Party.....

Welcome to my house and the "Rooster Party".
Come on in.... I'm so glad you came to visit.
Most of the roosters are in the kitchen.
Just follow me.....
This glass front cabinet is located in my kitchen. I have the cutest white and black rooster placed right behind the glass.
I covered the inside of the cabinet with a wonderful wallpaper. It really made the items I was displaying POP.
Can you see the rooster on the middle shelf?
I just love the black and white polka dots....
This recipe book was a gift from my bible study that I host.
They know I love roosters!
This rooster was a great find in the clearance aisle at Michaels Crafts.
I couldn't pass it up.
Let's take a quick look at the laundry room....
I found this pair of rooster plates and I knew they would be perfect in this room.They make doing the laundry a much more enjoyable task!
Now back to the kitchen tour....
I just posted about this memo board. It was easy to make and there is a rooster right in the middle of the toile print.
Here's a closer look... This was the perfect fabric for my kitchen memo board.
I found this rooster at Pottery Barn about 5 years ago.
He has had a home in the kitchen ever since that day!
I made this rooster tassel to hang right above the memo board. A cute little rooster I painted black and just added some drapery trim and a pretty sheer ribbon and button to hang it from.
I added this large Swarovski crystal to hang from the bottom of the tassel. When the crystal catches the light from the tiny desk lamp it just glistens.
Another favorite rooster is perched on the bottom of the shelf of the bakers rack in the corner of the kitchen.
I love having this rooster on my island. I found this glass serving tray and added some ivy and berries around the rooster. Now he has the perfect spot in the kitchen.
The last rooster sits on top of the fridge. He has the best view in the house.
Thanks for stopping by and visiting today. I hope you've enjoyed the visit. I've enjoyed sharing my collection with you. Don't forget to visit Bella Vista. Grab a cold drink and your computer. There are over 199 blogs that are sharing their wonderful rooster collections. So many bloggers are Hooked on different things. As you can see I am "Hooked" on roosters. Once you visit Bella Vista stop by Hooked on Fridays to see what other bloggers are hooked on. Wishing you a wonderful weekend.

Sherry...your house looks great. I love all your roosters!

Sorry I haven't called you back yet. We are having a hard time this week, eh? Well, tomorrow is Friday already and my "vacation week" is almost gone. Next week is the official start for me.

I'll give you a call tomorrow I hope. I love you, Kiddo.

Love,

All your roosters are great. I love roosters too but don't collect them. I'm just tempted by them. I have cows. But I like the word "roosters" more than the word "cows."

Barbara said...

Sherry, I love the color of your front door. Thanks for having us over. I love your Roosters.

Please drop in and see mine.
Barbara

Hi Sherry! I love ALL the roosters you've shown here today, but my favorites, I would say, are the one on your corner shelf, and then the rooster tassel! Have fun today at all the rooster parties, and have a wonderful weekend! ~tina

Hi Sherry,

I love how you have put your home together. Beautiful, and you can just feel the love. I adore all your roosters and how you have displayed them.
The music was a very pleasant surprise. I have not heard that song for many years but the words came right back. You made my day.

hugs,

Hi Sherry, I do love your wonderful collection of roosters. Also the paper in the back of your cabinet was a great idea. It looks so awesome. Thank you for sharing your home and your family of roosters. It is easy to see they are quite happy where they live. I would be too.

Hugs...Jeanne

Hi Sherry- awesome tassel!

We have a rooster exhibition coming up, maybe you'd be interested in seeing Kamyl's roosters? http://queengallery.ca/2010/06/el-gallo-chantecler-kamyl-bullaudy-rodriguez The artist is Cuban, but the exhibition will be in Toronto.

Love the roosters!
