If you have read more than two of my posts,
you probably know
I am a garage sale addict...
There are some tough days of withdrawal
in the cold wet winters here....
so I do more antique store shopping in the winter...
(click photos to enlarge)
I found these plates on one of those days,
They are more yellow than I would normally choose...
but when the days are dreary,
a pop of springy yellow
can call to you like a siren...
so I have waited and waited to use them
in a tablescape...
Today, the time was right...
since there is still a chill in the air,
I set my table in front of my faux fireplace...
It keeps my spirit warm :-)
a bouquet of Magnolia, Hyacinths
and that white flower,
who's name still eludes me...
Graces the center of the table....
a depression glass tumbler
serves as a vase,
it has no mate and I often use it for a vase....
who needs dessert when a Camellia blossom
sits so well in the compote...
dainty napkins...
and yes flowers just to scatter about
a bit...
Hurray for Spring!
The linens, depression glass and silver
are garage sale finds...
Spring plates are an antique store purchase...
pink chargers purchased at Ross many years ago...
the depression glass compotes a gift from my Mom...
flowers a gift from Mother Nature :-)
Today I am joining...
and
Thanks for joining me today!
