……………..Rattan and straw add a country charm to the table in the way of place mats, salt and pepper shakers, vases, and pagodas…..Clear yellow pressed glass vases in different sizes and shapes hold a variety of flowers….Crystal S&P shakers, and ones that look like lemons are placed on the table…….I’m ready to receive my guests!
………………After I finish decorating the dining table I like to extend the theme to the rest of the gathering room……On the scroll Chinese table, photo upper right, I have white sand blasted ceramic vases filled with babies breath, and at the center a white, yellow and blue bowl filled with lemons….Across from it is a Chinese alter table with a silver hammered vase filled with yellow and white flowers, and small yellow glass vases lined up filled with mimosa……On the coffee table is another hammered silver vase filled with a variety of yellow and white flowers, plus small silver vases filled with mimosa and white babies breath. There are also two large rattan pagodas that hold votives….My dandelion lights add a subtle sparkle…The eyes just keep moving around the room with something to see!
………………..QVC is having an enormous MEMORAL DAY SALE!!!!! Almost ALL of the Linea jewelry is on SALE at wonderful prices!…..This kind of reduction isn’t something that happens all the time…so…if there is something you have been waiting to buy….or….you’re just in the mood to treat yourself….I invite you to take a look!……..ALSO………Cathy and I will be having a FACEBOOK LIVE SHOW….this Saturday, May 26th at 2:00pm to celebrate the Memorial Day Sale….If you want to do some early shopping the SALE IS ON RIGHT NOW!!!!….Many things are very limited and probably won’t be reordered as we are getting ready to bring some new items in next month at the end of June!…….Come and join us for some laughs and talk….It’s always a GOOD TIME!!!!
……………..A Nor’easter is hitting New England…..This is very unusual for the month of May. They are predicting 3 inches of rain, and winds up to 50 miles an hour…I’ve taken precautions, by taking down all of my hanging plants, and everything that I thought might get blown over….I even covered my new rose trees and moved them to a less windy place…..If you’re in the path of this storm…take care…..BATTEN DOWN THE HATCHES!

A Nor’easter is hitting New England. It’s unusual for Nor’easters to hit in May. They are saying we will get 3 inches of rain and winds up to 50 mph…. Batten down the hatches!
