    Very beautiful table! I had so much fun looking at all your lovelies...so many of them! I love ALL your plates, the cut work ones are my favs, I have a set for 12 full of steeped plates, serving pieces, cups and saucers, etc. Your little bowls on top of the plates are totally adorable! The sheep is so cute and a warm touch to it all. Just lovely! Come and visit, I'll be thrilled!

    There was not one stinking thing that I did not love about this post! It looked like a magazine layout. And just about the time I thought it couldn't get any better, I saw the cottage! Wonderful!

    Thanks so much for all your lovely comments!

    I purchased my cottage from the Charleston Gardens catalog about 7 years ago. At the time I think it was the only one they carried. Now they carry a lot of different ones.

    Love, love, love the dark green against the crisp white...and those tiny plates with the pansies...those made my heart beat faster.
