Those sweet French plates are perfect, and your centerpiece of ruffled roses is gorgeous. The Welsh cabinet looks so pretty adorned for Valentine's Day. I love the vintage cards. You have so many lovely MacKenzie Childs pieces. Everything looks just beautiful! I have so enjoyed my visit today. It is always a joy to join you on these hops.

Your playful colorful plates and vintage Valentine's Day cards speak flirty romance to me. I love the mix of patterns which spell out playfulness and being delightfully adventurous. So are your charming Paris Eiffel Tower plates and MacKenzie-Childs heart bowls. The do work so well together. Your roses are absolutely stunning. So bright and cheerful and hopefully very fragrant.

First of all you know I love your amazing collection of MacKenzie-Childs (especially since I know the story of how it began) and the Anthro pieces. I've wanted to start a collection of those too but questioned adding another. I'm amazed you still have poinsettias since Thanksgiving. I thought I kept them a long time! I think they add another beautiful layer to your theme. Pretty hutch and tablecloth.

Like you, travel to Paris fills my imagination for now. I adore that city! Love the Nathalie plates! Her designs have long captured my heart, though my niece took most of mine. She likes to hang them in groups on her powder room wall. It's fun for me to see her enjoy these little works of art. I can see why the linen cloth is a favorite. The MC dishes are a perfect accessory for this table, and to fill your Welsh dresser. Thinking I need to display mine more rather than keep them hidden in a cupboard. I have some plans buzzing in my head. Perhaps spring will bring a refresh here. <br />I love the shard cake stand. Did you make it? I'm thinking that would be a fun project. I have a box of shards. Juse need to figure out how to construct it so the top is flat. The decoupaged vase is lovely too. I do remember RH magazine. I miss it! The days of the original Victoria magazine too. I subscribe to the new one, but the original had more unique content. It's fun to see you dining room and table dress for Valentine's and always fun to be on a tablescape hop with you. I agree. Rita is the best!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16287885364919636589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2820471780736941349.post-64284336041449286952023-01-24T09:12:17.607-06:002023-01-24T09:12:17.607-06:00Ricki Jill, I love this whimsical nod to Paris and...Ricki Jill, I love this whimsical nod to Paris and what gorgeous flowers--pinned!
