Happy Weekend
These are some beautiful dishes! Your friend is sooooo sweet. :) I love your basket of violets as well. I had them years ago but somehow my "brown thumbs" killed them. :( I can hardly grow anything, indoor or out!

ReplyDeleteThat china is absolutely gorgeous! So unique and elegant. I've noticed a trend this week of folks adding some "spring-y" touches to their vignettes and I think we are all itching for the next season. Your flowers really make me long for warmer days!
