I've been in a silly mood lately, and I just LOVE red, white and blue!
It's time to start showing our colors again, and I couldn't wait! So I brought out my patchwork table runner, and layered a few pieces.
Ruby dinner plate, crystal salad plate and milk glass bowl.
That gorgeous pink isn't a scoop of strawberry ice cream, my boss brought in peonies from her yard this morning, more on that later.
I played with the napkin a couple different ways, thought this shot best showed the fun detail of the bowl.
The ornaments are headed for my feather tree (along with many others),
I think they add a little sparkle.
And if anyone is wondering "where's the pig?" well... it's etched into the crystal plate!
Found at the thrift store for 25 cents-gotta love that!
Have a happy day everyone!
Too cute! Perfect plate for you! Did you get to CTree Shop last Sat??
