I remember how the polka dots on that bear/dog like animal just popped off the page at me! I was completely captivated by those polka dots and all the magical things the critter could do with them. He could make them larger or smaller, change their color and float them in the sky... pure joy!
Well, my love affair with the delightful polka dot continues to this day. There simply is no other pattern on earth that comes as close to making me as happy as the polka dot does. Below are some great polka dot finds from Etsy.
This very sweet bud vase from Lazy Dog Pottery
These funky stoneware mugs and...
this oh so cute spice bowl and spoon.

A happy hello,
ReplyDeleteI don't know any more from which side of the virtual-universe I came to your site. But now I'm here and fact is that I'm addicted to stripes as much as you to dots.
What a beautiful collection.
And, b.t.w.: I love your work!
Can't go wrong with polka dots
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice blog..The things are beautiful..I like polka dots too..
ReplyDeleteYay for polka dots! These are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI've always loved polka dots! I had a blouse when I was younger that was black and white polka dots, I know I wore that until it was unwearable! lol I adore the scalloped edge serving bowl. :)
ReplyDeleteHow sweet that you can trace your love back to that entertaining book. And that you're still smitten! We have it too, it's so much fun to read and yes, joyful.
ReplyDeletepolk-a-dots rock!!
ReplyDeleteI SOOOO love that book too! I couldn't find my copy so my Grandmother bought my son a new one and we read it "OFTEN". It even came with a matching Polka-Dotted cat (if that's what he is?):)
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely polka dots! How fun!! I love Dr. Seuss! Such an amazing, zamazing, flamazing poet! ;)
ReplyDeleteHi, Victoria. I found your blog while doing an Internet search for polka dots. I, too, am a huge fan of polka dots -- in fact, I have a blog devoted entirely to them! You might enjoy it:

ReplyDeleteMy current favorite polka dots are on my daughter's bathingsuit. White dots on red with light blue trim. Makes me happy everytime I see her running around in it.
