hi🤗@rescue lover 

wanted your thoughts on the new lavender check in the Mackenzie Childs line ?   I normally only am drawn to the courtly and Sterling as I like neutrals,  so easy to decorate with too .   I'm noticing lavender in some new on there website and find it so pretty !    Just not sure if the shade will stick out too much and not blend well with neutrals .  What are your thoughts?

Hope you don't mind if I give my opinion @Kitty Galore  But it might not "apply" since I don't know what you're referring to.  Lavender is the "it" color of 2025.  A soft lavender will go great with soft cool neutrals,imo.  You can find examples of the colors online.  I have some khaki capris and a light aqua shirt I wear together.  Neutrals go with nearly anything.  Just look at the shades and undertones of each.  For example, a khaki with a more yellow(warm) undertone won't look as good as a more neutral khaki pant.  When I was buying clothes for my first cruise in 2006, I wanted to pair some khaki capris with an aqua shirt.  I hadn't seen those colors together on anyone and asked my bf if she thought it looked good.  She said "no".  I couldn't stop looking at the combo.  Then I thought to myself, if it's good enough for God, it's good enough for me.  Sand and Caribbean waters = light tan and aqua.  Came home and remodeled my bathroom in the same colors   Good luck!

L O V E !! @monicakm 🌸

HELLO @Kitty Galore 🌸


I was just thinking of You earlier today.


I 💜 the idea of adding Lavender to YOUR collection and MINE ! 😂


I’m more likely to add the lavender than the rosy check, even though I like the rosy check too.


The reason I thought of You today was i wanted to ask you when that TSV for MacKenzie Child’s was going to be.

I couldn’t find it in the Program Guide. 😫







PS Did you buy the NEW pink witch over the moon with your credits yet?? 🩷

@monicakm @No of course I don't mind,  I love to hear various opinions!   Love how the neutral tan goes beautifully with the soft lavennder !!   Now that I see it the shades go together so well !  Soft shades & neutrals are going to be my new thing lol !  I have a lot of tan , naturals neutrals and whites that I'm going to plan next summer to put together.

thanks for the reply !

hello @RescueLover   Great to hear from you , glad you saw my post !

I thought about the roses check  too,  I guess though I've always loved lavender something about it in the check too.    I'm definitely going to add some lavender check !!!  So we're going to add a bit of lavender then ?!   Did you see the new large lavender check pumpkin with the fall flowers Here online ?   It was just added today with several other pumpkins and fall items !    I'm thinking it's mine Lol 😂 

My first lavender piece !

No I did not by the houcus pocus witch,,,,,,still thinking about it though .   

I couldn't resist the mocha  check pumpkin with the gold garland on MC website.  It was enticing with the double points, and 20% off next purchase so I bought it and it arrived an hour ago.  Have the Sterling from last season.   I haven't opened it yet was busy .  Will get to it later when I have some quite time ,  people in and out !  

the TSV is the 21st , all day Thursday !   I'm sure it's going to be a set of pumpkins maybe like last year .   Although I'm hoping it will be something else spectacular!  I know though that they  have to keep in mind new collectors that aren't too familiar with the MC line.   Not the seasoned collectors like us LOL 😂

we will have to talk the day of the show !

enjoynyour weekend 🤗💕

I’ll have to check out that Mocha Check Pumpkin w/Garland
You got. Sounds Stunning !! I would have jumped on that great deal too !!


Next week can’t come soon enough !!


Maybe the TSV will be their striped pumpkins in ALL the colors ?!?!?


Enjoy your weekend… talk soon. 💜

Hello MC fans.  I just have a question about the cherry check.  I noticed several paint runs/smears, which I haven't noticed on the checked patterns.  Are they supposed to look this way?  I didn't notice it on other checks.  Just wondering........I currently don't own any.  I do like the Christmas tea kettle.  I think Deck the Halls?

Hi! @lynnie61 🌸



I hadn’t noticed and I don’t own any of the Cherry Check YET…. 😂
but I do know the paint on most all the pieces is perfectly imperfect.



I’ll have to look closely at the Cherry in the pics and see if they look any different than the checks I already have.


I’ll get back to you….🤗

[lynnie61]

@RescueLover   Look at H490628 or H490629 online.  To me it looks like runs.  And I saw a mug in a recent show, and it looked the same way.  Just thought it was odd.  Some other beautiful pieces though.  Maybe it's light reflections, not runs.
