I was happy to use it for the first time and it looked good on the table. While I loved creating this table at the same time felt quite bad to see the flowers dangling next day.      Please Visit Nap On The Porch Please Visit Home Sweet Home Please Visit Share you style Please Visit Clair justin Please Visit Rustic and Refied

Bringing in the bone China floral plates along with the new  kettle set and a English antic porcelain cookie carry  box (usually used for picnics) which I picked long time ago from a antic bazaar gave the corner a cozy look with a candle lit on.     ...
