L is for ---on Alphabe-Thursday

Image
I am barely slipping in here for Alphabe-Thursday.
But I wanted to be sure to get my post done because
this time it is the letter "L".  And
my name starts with the letter "L".
Linnea

I have posted about this before here and shared some of these pictures 
at that time.
Linnea is the name of a flower that grows in the northern latitudes. 
So because of that I have never seen the real thing.
On my sidebar to the left is a picture of the actual Linnea flower.
If you click on it, the link will take you to a site that explains more about the 
Linnea flower.
Image
Above I have some items with the Linnea flower on it.
My mother gave me the bowl and made the crossstitch 
table topper in the upper right.
I think I bought the stationary and the 
dresser scarf in the lower right.
I wear the necklace frequently and 
sometimes where the pin.

This picture shows what is inside the stationary folder.

A closeup of the jewerly.

And this trivet my mother bought for me and forgot to give it to me.
she gave it to me a few months ago. It can also hang on the wall.

It is a very dainty looking flower as well.

Thanks for coming by!
