It looks lovely with the polka dot plates and so spring. I would love if you would join us for Table Top Tuesdays. That is a party that I host and it is where we show off our vignettes that we create on any kind of table, shelf, hutch or any surface that we display things on. Your bakers rack would be a perfect candidate for the party. You can click on my blog for the details. Also, I would love to follow your blog, however I did not see a follow button on the sidebar. Hope to see you Tuesday.

The tulips look so pretty. Those place mats are stunning. Lenox Moonspun was our wedding pattern-the dishes and the stemware. I love their graceful shape, but I don't use them often, because I worry about the silver rim coming off if I put them in the dishwasher. laurieBargain Decorating with Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582640485560903639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8790193982038227242.post-52732949594742884022010-03-25T14:44:08.180-05:002010-03-25T14:44:08.180-05:00I do love the pattern that you showed so well in ...I do love the pattern that you showed so well in the close up shots.
