Sunshine & Swine

Hey everyone! I wanted to join Marty's Cloche Party so I thought I'd make a small centerpiece for my lunch. The little pig pitcher is only 3" tall and this is a cupcake cloche. Small flowers from the yard.
Piggy plate's perfect for a sandwich.
  
I'm also joining Diann's Thrifty Tablescape Party with this little setting:
Plate-Thrift Store 25¢
Glass-Thrift Store 50¢
Pig Pitcher-CTS 69¢-ish... under $1
Runner-Walmart clearance $1
Cloche-Ross $3.99
Napkin-older than dirt...
Flowers-from the yard
 Have a happy day:@)

    Now this is the sweetest thing I've seen, Lynn. Before blogging, I used to refer to them as glass domes, but what the heck did I know? I have one large one with handpainted flowers, one day it will get into a post, I think. xo,

    How pretty, Lynn! That littler pig pitcher surely is cute! Happy week!...hugs...Debbie
    PS...I'll bet if Earl sports a kitty disguise, he can slip into BK's party!
