THE BIRDS AND THE BEES...

A slight shift from bunnies and birds.  It's early spring, Daylight Savings Time has kicked in, and Easter is around the corner.   My latest obsession is birds.    I put together a collection of 4, two-piece place settings of bird plates, Spode, Ray Harm's Birds 9" luncheon plates, and Limoges Bird 6 1/2" bread plates.  I have a pretty floral/bird table cloth, and Wallace Napoleonic Bee flatware that I will use, but I also found that blue and white are nice with this collection. Below are two collages.  
What do you think?

SPRINGTIME BRINGS BUNNIES AND BIRDS

 St. Patrick's Day came and went.  I made the traditional corn beef, cabbage, and potatoes, and we enjoyed a festive table.  No doubt we drank pale ale - Guinness Baltimore Blonde - our favorite!



And today, the table changed to Bunnies and Birds celebrating tomorrow's Spring Equinox and April's Easter.  I found the chargers at Hobby Lobby.  Even though they're vinyl, they are so lovely and are the perfect backdrop for my Arcoroc Crocus plates, made in France. With spring, comes pink...lovely pink napkins from Amazon.    Everything else was in my arsenal including the Williams-Sonoma tablecloth and my three darling moss bunnies.
